[thekhalida1]

Hi folks,

I'm starting a youtube channel and looking for a computer which I can use to edit the videos, change the thumbnails, edit photos etc.

Can anyone suggest what sort of specs I would need to do this. I need everything apart from the monitor and would ideally like it to last a few years.

Any help would be appreciated!

If you don't suggest a budget then things can get silly around here.

Also what about stuff like mouse/keyboard/speakers/OS etc?

emmm not really sure. probz about 3k

3k budget for a basic PC to do a bit of video editing, seriously?

Do you just need case, all internals, keyboard/mouse, speakers, etc? Do you literally need everything except the monitor?

yea man thanks for help

 

[stulid]

if you had 3k to spend what would you get

Spend half and keep the rest in the bank for updates later on.

Maybe a DELL 27"/30" IPS panel screen?

i forgot to mention need it for games at high frame rate and live streaming. really want it to be amazing

A few tweaks then.

Dont spend 3k on a PC. As said already, you're better buying a 1k machine now and having 2k for upgrades in the future.
