I would take the 1600 over the 1500x. The 1600 is a better CPU and not much more. I would also wait for the 2600. It should be priced close to the 1600 and should be a better CPU.

I would wait until the Ryzen 2 reviews are out to make a decision, especially when it comes to pricing of the motherboards compared to the first generation. And this is being optimistic there are no bugs at release like the first generation motherboards went through. But yes, Ryzen > Intel when it comes to video editing unless said Intel chip is highly overclocked. I'm leaning towards Ryzen for my next build because of their longer chipset support. Intel has gone through three series of motherboard chipsets in two and a half years between Skylake, Kaby Lake, and Coffee Lake. That's insane.
One comment about video rendering: depending on the program, the GPU will be faster to render with if you have a powerful enough one. I use Vegas Studio and render on the GPU. That program takes advantage of GPU architecture. I haven't tested the freeware version of Handbrake performance rendering on CPU vs. GPU so I'm not sure about that.

LOL well most of we long term members are cool but there are some jackwagons out there. It comes with the territory of PC nerd-ism. :lol:
Oh BTW I assume you are burning to 480p on a DVD. If you ever upgrade to Blu-Ray burning at 1080p, your PC's power is all that more important.
