Thinking about adding a video card later if I need it. Also considering overclocking and adding a water cooler later on. Would like to leave room for this PC to grow. No gaming will be done on this PC.
Any recommendations for a beginning software to make movies out of my footage. I know that GoPro has the free Studio software to edit clips but probably need something more later on.
