Solid performer!! Just follow these guildlines, you dont necissarily need these exact parts, 16gb rams, ssd for operating system, hdd with storage capacity for ur 200gb files, fast processor.. 4cores new generation or more.. Amd or intel doesnt matter much when doing big files, Both perform well. the video card isnt top of the line, but its $299, not $439.. and can be overclocked to top of the line performance, - The z77 board has new chipset and is compatible with crossfire later
