Computer build excluding GPU (1K roughly)

[ArcticFrenzy]

Hello all, So I am planning on building/getting a pre-built computer to replace my current machine as everything is starting to die, apart from my GPU (Nividia 1080) as its only a few years old. Anyway I would be using it for mainly games but I do a lot of video editing aswell as multi tasking with work. I was thinking an SSD for boot drive a PICE HDD for programs and a very large mechanical HDD for everything else, probably 5TB or 2 of them as I am currently using 4.2TB on my current one, Raw video files add up fast XD. Anyone got any suggestions? (I am able to adjust my budget if need be).

Oh also anyone know of a good way of getting that much data from 1 computer to the new one?

Thanks

Wait till Thursday to see paper launch of Ryzen 5000/Zen 3

Also, what video editing software do you use ?

Think about NAS for RAW backup , or if using as scratch disk large SSD sata 3 and then move to HDD when done

For Vegas, like Prem (which is now slightly in favour of Ryzen ), it's Currently between these two chips

My basket at overclockers uk:

• 1 x Intel Core i9-10850K Avengers Edition 3.6GHz (Comet Lake) Socket LGA1200 Processor - Retail= £439.99
• 1 x Gigabyte Z490 Aorus Elite AC (Socket LGA 1200) DDR4 ATX Motherboard= £199.99
• 1 x Team Group Vulcan Z T-Force 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 PC4-25600C16 3200MHz Dual Channel Kit - Grey= £109.99

Total: £760.47 (includes shipping: £10.50)

My basket at overclockers uk:

• 1 x AMD Ryzen 9 3900X Twelve Core 4.6GHz (Socket AM4) Processor - Retail= £475.00
• 1 x Gigabyte B550 AORUS Elite (AMD AM4) B550 ATX Motherboard= £154.99

Total: £640.49 (includes shipping: £10.50)

+£120 for Klevv Bolt X 32GB 3600hz (for workstation loads, it's worth getting 3600hz over 3200hz. Again with prem for intel you get slower but more ram whilst amd you get less but faster ram .)

I think latest blender it's even but 3950x 16 core Ryzen would win... Again worth waiting till the 8th
