To your specifications. I was thinking about a Quadro card (you certainly have the budget for it) but after some research it seems that a normal GeForce card would be better for your needs. If you want, you could push this up to Haswell-EP for some more cores and video editing performance.

Thanks for the response.I like your specs.I think I can go with i7. What should I change from your i7 build for 2k or 4k editing.not necessary but for future proofing

And a 64 gb ram and pro graphic card
