Hi everyone,

This is my 3rd post about my new custom pc that i am going to buy. And I'm not even sure yet. I am going to play FPS games, but i also am learning video editing and some kinda programs like after effects, photoshop, premiere pro and sony vegas pro. If you are asking me like 'which one is important for you, video editing or gaming ? well i dont know. But i think that my proccessor is great for both. ' I have got HDD and SSD drives so i don't buying a new drive. I also have a 19 inch monitor from Samsung SyncMaster 933SN and i am planning to work 2 monitors. If you have a better custom build advice than show me from ''pcpartpicker.com'' I've also builded up from there and here is the link : http://pcpartpicker.com/p/y4fMyc If you give advices to make it better about the price/performance binary, it would be great ! I have a budget for about a $900 - $1560 Waiting for your help and thank you.

If he is going to overclock is he going to overclock is CPU and his GPU? if so CPU try getting unlocked BIOS and CPU.
But thats a nice GPU
