Opinions on my cart - £2000 video editing PC

[biuro74]

For video editing I'd get 3 or 4 HDDs (1TB) instead of one 3TB and put them into RAID-0. On the top of it just another one HDD for source/end/backup files.

The Vaper-X card looks better than you might think as the blue and white go well together.

FYI I didn't mind the GPU so much, in fact I like it a lot and I think I'd rather save the 80 quid getting the cheaper RAM rather than the cheaper 290x, thanks anyway lee32uk.

I have 2x 3TB HDDs selected for Raid-0, I was going to get another pair in the not too distant future for Raid-10 or maybe more Raid-0, depending on how things are going and when I'm not so strapped for cash. I also have another HDD in an e-sata enclosure I used to use with the laptop which I'll probably stick in the new build as well. Plus a few external backup drives.

I'll have another look at the drive bays in the case and the cost of smaller HDDs though, thanks for the advice. Reckon I'm ok with the one SSD for now?

One SSD surely is enough for the OS and programs.
