Hey folks. Looking to get a new computer. Decided to buy parts and build rather than buying pre built. Save money, and have better performance.
However I have no idea where to start. What works with what, and what the good parts are.
So I turn to you.
Budget. $700 +/- $50
Main use will be video editing, little bit of gaming, and daily tasks.
I edit HD video, and my current laptop does alright, bit it leaves a bit to be desired mainly in terms of processing the final video, and keeping the "preview" while editing smooth. Right now it lags a bit. I'm guessing that's meaning I need more memory?
Anyways, video editing PC, for around $700
I'll hook it up to a 27" monitor.
