Thanks to Tomhardware.com and everyone in the forum, I really appreciate all your help.
Beginner Builder
Uses: Adobe Premiere Pro (mainly) AE other programs (light work)
Budget 2100$
Specs at the bottom
Questions:
1. The 4770k has excellent benchmarks for Adobe programs, and I know a workstation processor has more cores but I feel for what I am doing I could always upgrade in the future. But is this processor the right non-workstation processor?
2. Do I need the liquid cooling? I have heard that the 4770k can overheat so I want to keep it as cool as possible but is the liquid cooling overkill.
3. I know workstation VGAs are the way to go, but due to price I am settling for this gaming VGA and can upload later, is the GTX 760 a good choice for what i will be doing. Also will this need separate cooling?
4. The case I chose seems too good to be true. 109$ for that there must be a catch, anyone know of any caveat with Fractal Design R4 Silent ATX mid tower case?
Sort of new at this so thanks for all help in advance.
