Hey guys!
This is my first time building a PC/Hackintosh. Looking for some recommendations / validation on the parts list I have going so far.
I'm a video editor and this build will primarily be used for editing - mostly 1080p video, but 4K is an option in the future (I know I'll have to upgrade some stuff - RAM, and possibly GPU - to make it truly capable of handling 4K footage).
Trying to keep it >$1500 for the whole build.
The case in there is just a placeholder (I wanna spend around $50-$60 on a case).
And this isn't including keyboard, monitor, and any expansion cards.
Just looking for some thoughts! Would this build do well handling video editing? Am I spending too much/not enough on my GPU and CPU?
Also hoping to start messing around with VR - not a huge concern, but wondering if I'll run in to any problems there with this build as well.
