How much money would I need to spend to get a decent video editing pc that would allow for light gaming ?

Just need some help to buy a decent pc for video editing !

I'd would say a PC like this: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1OwAu

So probably around $1400 - $1700 USD for a decent video/gaming machine.

I'm sure there are things you can change to save money too.

Okay, so maybe they are. How fast would the OP like to get the jobs done though? You are combining gaming and video editing too. What is wrong with the build anyway? Is it the CPU and SSD? (I really do appreciate the feedback )

Maybe this even?
