Video Editor Upgrade

[thatfilmcrew]

Hello I need an upgrade, I want to upgrade stuff over time so if you can tell me new parts I can add to my system now before I change the whole system that would be great. My budget is in between $1000-$2000. All I care about is performance looks not so much. Right now I have:

Cooler Master Elite 350 Case

MSI ms-7641 motherboard

AMD Phantom II x4 950 3.40Ghz (Stock cooler)

GTX Nvidia 640

16gb Vengeance memory (I have 2x4gb sticks unused)

 

3 HDD's 3TB drive (dying), 1TB (runs okay), 120gb (extra stoage)

 

So first things first. I need to be able to playback 4k clips with no problems. I also need to edit multiple cameras at once in my editing software Premiere. I need a good work SSD for my boot and working clips and another good mass storage HDD. I also need a new Motherboard (possibly quad channel), CPU, case, GPU, Blu-ray burner (optional), and something to cool the whole thing.

I'd like to start upgrading stuff now so I can get some sort of performance boost, I was thinking with starting off with a new SSD then Graphics Card, please let me know what I should do.

Thank you all!

-Lot of money for a case, just threw it in their it's cosmetic that's all up to you

-Psu isn't too cheap either, if the one you have works, hey throw it in there.

Any $$$ you can put towards your cpu would be great

-I put in a mediocre card tbh

Id get a 6800k. Premiere like clock speed more than cores, also the the cores times clock is also higher on the 6800k.

Ah, I didn't know that.

I did see the 6800k, the price goes up 20$ more I believe. I think it was still within budget.

Id personally get a cheaper cooler, or a nhd14/15.

 

Id get a cheaper board, like the x99-a

 

id get 32gb.

 

Is that a 200 dollar 120gb ssd? Id get a cheaper 240 for about 70 bucks.

Boards don't affect performance, no reason to go highend.

Hardware Canucks did a comparison between the 6700k and the 6800k, turns out premiere likes higher clocks rather than more cores
