Hello, I want to build a gaming computer with a large memory (C Drive memory). I am bad at all these computer stuff so I came here to ask for help. I want a gaming computer which can run at high speed, while having good video card and sound card. Windows 10 preferrably. I don't know anything else, would be best to enlighten me on some things while you reccommend. My budget is either USD$3000 or USD$2215.25. Do help me for both budgets, thanks! :D

I am bad at all these computer stuff so I came here to ask for help. I want a gaming computer which can run at high speed, while having good video card and sound card. I want to make videos as well, and I heard that rendering videos or something requires something good, no idea what is that. Windows 10 preferrably. I don't know anything else, would be best to enlighten me on some things while you recommend. I want a killer computer which can run the newest games at max settings above 60FPS as well.. my budget is either USD$3000 or USD$2215.25. Do help me for both budgets, thanks! :D

Well, I can give you a pretty good run of the mill parts list for video rendering + gaming.

The 950 Pro is the best value NVMe SSD for people who need really fas storage (say, people who edit video and want to look at the preview) and it's only available in that form factor.

This for $3000. Put those Hard Drives on RAID for added reliability or performance.
