Additional Comments: I am using Asus K501UX and selling it so I need something new that will Help render videos fast. Currently I only make 1080p videos but I may want to future proof it for 4K later. Also I would like a small tower/case if that is even possible. No overclocking because I do not fiddle with that stuff. All i know is that i should have 16-32 gb RAM and separate drives to avoid bottleneck? I have no knowledge of building a PC. I am not in a rush as I will be using my friends macbook pro in the meantime. Thank you for your assistance!
 
Solution
for an editing pc with at least 16 gigs and enough storage and decent video hardware i would recommend a higher price range between 900 and 1200 would be a better option for an editing and give more headroom
