Hey guys, i want to build an "editing + some gaming" rig for my birthday. My top budget is $4000.

I have some requirements

- the monitor must be at least 1440p

- at least 1TB of SSD/ M.2 storage (i don't want hdd mass storage because for a build like this, slow times don't fill the bill)

- the case is : Enthoo Evolv Atx Tempered glass

Color me convinced of the genuine nature of this post.

Pascal Undervolting topic, get more out of your card with less power!

Why high refreshrate monitors look better even without Freesync/G-sync in one image.
Stutters, framedrops, "lag". How to provide detailed information with your "bottleneck" question, as well as a few solutions.

Since it is editing first, gaming second, I think that a 6900K with a single 1070 would be a better option...

Single 1070 on a UW 1440p/100hz monitor? I don't think so

thats what i came up with

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

Spoiler

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

I would swap the 5820k with a 6800k tho

The 5820K is faster than the 6800K when both are overclocked to the max....
