hey,

im looking for a gaming pc to build with a budget of 1300 usd.
this is my first build.
i need advices or opinons on what i should get. i was also thinking to get the dual monitor setup, (one screen gaming, the other for browsing internet)
I also want to edit videos on this pc.

here is the planning.
Intel based cpu
a gtx970 graphic card
16gb of ram (2x8)
250gb Ssd
2tb Hdd (1TBx2)
Any good cooler
No operating system needed, i will be using my extras
2 Monitors (multitasking)
A cool, good mechanical keyboard (if possible, with backlit)

Ps. Im new to this, so give me advice so i could become better at this :)

Thanks,
