Been lurking for a while, great forum, very informative. So I thought you guys could help with my new build.
This rig is for editing 1080p video footage using Premier Pro and Effects plus Photoshop for photos. No gaming
This is what I have so far:
My basket at Overclockers UK:
Total: £969.04
(includes shipping: £11.10)
The PCI drive will take case of the OS (which I already have) and I also have a couple of SSDs and a large mechanical drive
Now I can't decide on a case. I do not want some big monstrsity. I have a modern office so it needs to look modern and neat. I would like the layout to be something like this (http://www.fractal-design.com/media/89488385-25a5-4640-be63-7c27e98efd68) where the cables are kept out of the way and the hard drives are easily accessed. Fractal seem to make some nice cases.
