Budget video editing build

[Mark M]

My PC is on its last legs so I need a new one. I only use it for office based stuff but I would like to see if I could incorporate some basic video editing if possible. I've got a crazy idea of doing some projector mapping but may never get off the ground so don't want to spend a lot at the moment.

Can I get a basic video editing pc for under £800? Happy to DIY. I only need the PC incl case, no windows, monitor etc. Software would likely be Davinci Resolve and GIMP for images.

Many thanks

Basic video editing intel CPU with quick sync will do the trick but added a 3060 if you want to get serious about it or game .

If not remove the 3060 from build.
