About to Place my Order i7 Video Editing Build

bluehabit · Sep 13, 2014

Hey everyone, putting together a new system that will hopefully handle heavy video editing a bit better. I don't intend to OC any of the components, so hopefully I didn't go overkill on anything given that. Here is what I came up with.

SAMSUNG 840 EVO 250GB SSD

Intel i7-4790

Asrock Fatal1ty 797 LGA 1150

Crucial Ballistix Sports 16GB DDR3 1600

+ a GTX 760 that I already have and a few hard drives.

$696

Would greatly appreciate any feedback or guidance before I submit the order button.

all I would add is a better cpu cooler then the intel one.

You can save some $ with this motherboard:

Everything else looks great.

Go with the Cooler Master HVO 212 (I think that's what it's called). It's about $30 and is a very nice CPU cooler.

I would suggest, since you said you won't over clock and you don't have a k series part, you get a h97 motherboard. The asrock h97 performance is a good choice as it has all the needed features (including support for sli, which is a nice plus). Also, as others have said, the hyper 212 evo cpu cooler. Best bang for the buck cooler as far as I am aware.
