Hi i am thinking in building a new rig for video edition and gaming as second. Was thinking on the I7 as cpu for the HT and Nvidia as i heard the CUDA tech helps for encoding. Also gonna need a good monitor with good FPS for gaming. I live in usa and my budget can go up to 1500 usd. Cheers and thanks for any ideas.

PS: No need for OS
 
Depending on the size of the raw material, you may want more HDD. And maybe even run RAID on them.
