Good Budget Video Editing Rig

That's not even remotely accurate. Otherwise 2GB GPUs, like the RX 560 and GTX 1050 wouldn't exist. 

They are in a completely different price range. Those are designed for eSports game, in which 1GB would be fine.

Ironic. You literally recommended a GTX 1050Ti OVER a GTX 1060.

Better value.

Go with better PSU.

Doesn't matter. You're making too big a deal about the amount of VRAM on a mid ranged GPU lmfao. 3GB VRAM is perfectly fine. If it wasn't, you'd be able to prove to me that the memory was bottlenecking the GPU.

What GPU would you recommend for gaming and Editing, mainly the latter.

please don't keep cheaping out on the power supply, it's the only thing in your rig that can kill EVERYTHING(not just your parts, too) in one shot if it dies.

Again, GTX 1060. Either the 3GB or 6GB variant. As I've stated already, 3GB 1060 would be fine, 6GB variant would be better. @herman mcpootis managed to get the 6GB GTX 1060, better case than the Tesseract and a nice 250GB SSD within your budget. Go with that and get the 4x4GB 3000MHz RAM

The 980Ti is again, completely different league of GPU from a GTX 1060 lmfao. Also, games use the VRAM they have available to them. This isn't proof whatsoever that VRAM amount will bottleneck a GTX 1060.

1060<980Ti<1070

 

So no, not really. Do you have proof that a 1060 3GB won't have VRAM bottlenecks with ARK @ 1080 Ultra?

Again, GTX 1060. Either the 3GB or 6GB variant. As I've stated already, 3GB 1060 would be fine, 6GB variant would be better. @herman mcpootis managed to get the 6GB GTX 1060, better case than the Tesseract and a nice 250GB SSD within your budget. Go with that and get the 4x4GB 3000MHz RAM

Here is an updated parts list, I have keep a cheeper power supply as I want the budget under $1700 NZD

Yes, really. The GTX 1070 and 980Ti perform VERY similarly in games, as in they trade blows and the GTX 1070 is a completely different league of GPU than the GTX 1060. Also, the 980Ti is a higher end GPU than either the GTX 1060, or GTX 1070. It has significantly more CUDA cores.

Lmfao, good try. That's not how it works though. The burden of proof is on you, the one making these claims. Also, you're just changing your argument now, you can't specify one single game when you claimed that 3GB wasn't enough, and that a 1050Ti is a better option.

So would you recommend a 980Ti or 1070 instead?

CX450 is $110.

No, i am trying to explain 1060 3GB is bad value.

I'm so tired of you (you always argue some ridicoulous claim) I'm just going to stop arguing for today and continue this tommorow.

No, because again, they're a completely different league of GPU and you've said multiple times that you have a "really tight budget".

That's even more expensive than anything any one else has recommended? With a worse PSU.

Get the 3GB GTX 1060 if you want to save about $90.

Get the larger, better 250GB 850 EVO SSD if you can. If not, a 120GB SSD will be fine.
