I am trying to help a friend, told him I will built the rig for him but I know nothing about building a rig for Video Editing and Photoshop... I would say it is similar to building a Gaming rig but I rather not speculate.
Here's the scenario:
Upload the image from his video camera, edit/play with the video, add some music to it and then burn it for future viewings. Same with photos.
So here it is
1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
Photoshop, Video Editing and Web Browsing of course.
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
2K mas... including Shipping & Taxes
3) Which country do you live in? If the U.S, please tell us the state and city if possible.
Miami, Florida 33155
4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. The word "Everything" is not a valid answer. Please list out all the parts you'll need.
Case
Motherboard
PSU
CPU
Ram
SSD
Hard Drive
Video Card
BR Player & Writer/Burner
CD/DVD Player & Burner as a Secondary
Multi Reader
Keyboard
Mouse
Monitor to go with the new build.
Adobe Premiere Element & Photoshop Element 10
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
No reusables
6) Will you be overclocking?
No
7) What is the max resolution of your monitor? What size is it?
We will be buying a new one
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
Hopefully, within 2 or 3 weeks... Tax Refund
9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? USB 3.0? SATA 6Gb/s? eSATA? Onboard video (as a backup or main GPU)? etc.
USB 3.0, SATA & eSATA would be nice features to have.
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license? If yes, what OS? Is it 32bit or 64bit?
NO... we would be buying Windows Ultimate 7 64 bit
