New build for video editing

[washo]

Hi,

Looking for a built rig for a friend to mainly carryout video editing. Also used for some gaming.

Video Editing: uses Adobe Premier Pro and After Effects.
Gaming : Fortnite etc

Budget ideally around £1000 but can stretch to £1300 if worth the extras. Windows 11 needed. No screen required. Controllable A-RGB lighting would be a bonus.

Premier Pro states:

• 16 GB of RAM for HD media
• 32 GB or more for 4K and higher

Storage at least 1TB.

Exsiting PC was struggling with having more than one program open at a time.

Thanks in advance.

Can you share the specs, just so that we know what an upgrade looks like?

Thanks for this. PC is 6 years old apparently so pretty dated.

Friend has advised they prefer this Graphics card. Any thoughts?

Intel ARC A770 Phantom Gaming OC 16GB GDDR6 PCI-Express Graphics Card​

Also Motherboard, PSU, cooler and case are on pre-order. He is looking to get this asap so any other suggestions?

What about pre built ones having 360mm AIO Liquid CPU Cooler would that make it quieter?.

Also 3 sold today of this. I wounder if the people who bought it changed anything.

I didnt realise the 4090 was faster then the 5080 but at least its new gen parts in the 5080 and i am jumping from a 2080ti.

There's not a huge amount between the A750 and A770, but obviously double the memory capacity is nice and might come in handy! Keep in mind that there are newer "Battlemage" cards available.

For the DIY PC, it would push the cost up if you're planning to ask OCUK to build it.

You mean the DIY, right?

This is a bit tricky.

Motherboards are mostly out of stock and the B860 boards in stock are nearly the same price as a Z890 board. You might want to shop around.

PSUs same story, hardly anything is available.

Cases, there's an Ultra version of this case which comes with a lot more cooling, but it should be sufficient.

There's a non-RGB version of the assassin for the same price, or you can spend a little more for the superior phantom spirit.
