I'm looking to buy a custom built pc from one of the many custom build sites out there such as overclockers, cyberpower, pcspecialist, and currently my preference is cyberpower based on their prices. I live in the U.K and my budget is £900-£1000 and I would mainly use it for daily video editing and rendering (on Sony Vegas 12) and casual gaming on mostly single-player games (since my broadband sucks). I currently know that I need at least the i7 4770 and 1600mhz 16gb ram for editing but I am stuck with what graphics card, solid state drive, case, PSU, and motherboard to get? I have a 1920x1080 DVI monitor, mouse, speaker and keyboard so everything outside of the case is covered for now also I know a lot of you will suggest building it myself but in my current working situation I have no time to do so but this could change in the future.
This build is the best I could come up with my knowledge from cyberpower and with Windows 8.1 it is £65 over which is fine
