Hello, just as the tittle says, im trying to build my pc but its been so long since iv'e bought a pc piece by piece, and so many new things have came up that im just somewhat puzzled.

I´d like to know if the following parts are compatible with each other, and if you have suggestions please feel free (My budget is 2000$ get as close to it as possible) I live in the USA.

In advance, thank you for your help

(with all listed above the price comes out to about 1210$ the rest 710$ will be for video card, power supply and a PC case, i can squeeze in a little more cash for the Video card

Video card ???? i will do video editing + Photoshop + heavy gaming with game recordings

power supply ???? this page suggests the AX 760W http://www.buildcomputers.net/best-computer-power-supply.html

What's the primary use for this system going to be? If it's gaming you don't need the i7 and you also don't really need the Intel SSD either (there's better, less expensive drives out there).

Here's what I would suggest:

PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant / Benchmarks

CPU: Intel Core i5-4670K 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor ($209.99 @ Amazon)
CPU Cooler: Thermaltake Water 3.0 Extreme 99.0 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler ($109.99 @ Amazon)
Motherboard: ASRock Z87 Extreme6 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard ($143.49 @ Newegg)
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-2133 Memory ($76.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: Samsung 840 EVO 250GB 2.5" Solid State Disk ($161.99 @ Amazon)
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($54.99 @ Amazon)
Video Card: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 780 Ti 3GB Video Card ($669.99 @ NCIX US)
Case: Corsair 500R White ATX Mid Tower Case ($109.99 @ Newegg)
Power Supply: NZXT HALE90 V2 850W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply ($168.99 @ SuperBiiz)

This PSU is very good, you don't need any more than this to run a single GPU. If you ever plan to do SLI, then I would recommend going with something around 850 watts.

Laptops are more expensive than a same performance pc. For example they are restricted on the power they consume from comparably very small power supplies. But they are more portable.

That particular laptop would have a lot less computing power than the pc you're talking about.
