Is this PC a good idea?

[Alex.G]

Is it a good idea for 1080p gaming, video editing and music production? or should I spend a little extra for something else?

If you want to do video editing then I highly advise you get an i7 (6700,6700K,7700 or 7700K).

I'm sure @deXxterlab97 could make something better around your budget, he's a ninja when it comes to builds.

hmmm well if you want a good cpu i would assume you would need to upgrade the mother board to support the chipset. but i dont necessarily know about that ;/

When I go into his profile it appears he's online. He may be making a list at the moment or he's helping someone else.

CX550M -  a much better PSU. Also gives you plenty wattage for any upgrade

i7 6700 well just you wanted. Also no cooler as i7 6700 comes with stock cooler

120GB SSD is small so I upgraded to a 275GB one

RX 480 8GB  is worth it. Nitro is a nice card too for that.

Case is fine. No need to spend too much on that

Yeah. The corsair is more beautiful. I did not include it in because it would be more than 900 pounds. If you want to save money get cheaper SSD like a 240GB SSD would be nicer and maybe a CX450M to save cost

im going to try to get something a bit cheaper, but to keep the costs down a little i changed the gpu from a saphire (or whatever) nitro+ to a saphire reference style card, which cut the cost down by £30

Reference is loud. You don't save much. Save money getting cheaper SSD. And a 450w CXM like I said.
