Hi, This is my first time building a PC so any assistance will be greatly appreciated!
Approximate Purchase Date: e.g.: this week (the closer the better)
Budget Range: $1,500 inclusive of all charges
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Music editing with a 1440p display, if possible, light video editing, light gaming
Are you buying a monitor: Yes

Do you need to buy OS: No
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Amazon
Parts Preferences: Intel, the rest i'm not sure
Overclocking: No
SLI or Crossfire: No
Your Monitor Resolution: 1440p if possible or 1080p
Additional Comments: Quiet and a small form factor PC would be ideal.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: I was supposed to buy a Mac, but my friend convinced me otherwise. So here i am hoping to see the 'light' as he said.

So far, these are the few parts that I'm actually fairly confident with. However, I'm really unsure to the rest of the parts.
