I’m a video editor, graphic designer and musician looking to drop 2k and under on a new build for those purposes as well as for moderate Gaming. I use Cakewalk Sonar (64 bit) heavily, Video Editing in Premiere Pro CC, Photo Editing in Photoshop CC. I’ll be using most of the CC Applications and a handful of other music applications for mastering, editing and general music production. Im looking for a build that will last and will give me the best availability to update for the future when the need arises. I have speakers, monitors, run two Presonus Firestudio 2626 audio interfaces (need only one when not recording full bands), m-audio 2496 soundcard. I’d like to stick with Intel and Nvidia as much as possible. I need an external raid for hot swapping drives that house a few 1-2 Tb drives. Im sold on the Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080 8GB G1 Gaming Video Card, but if theres better for cheaper that'll better suit my purposes, I'd like to see it. Your help is much appreciated. Thanks!
