Hello everyone,

I am completely new to PC building. I recently got into gaming and quickly learned that a PC would be superior to console. I play FPS like Battlefield, Overwatch, R6 Siege, etc. I also need to use my computer for video editing (Adobe Premiere, at that). I don't think I want to play anything over 1980p resolution.

I did a parts list based on various guides I've found on the internet. Am I spending too much? Not enough? Need some opinions, as I did tweak my list a bit based on different information. I was hoping to spend 800-1000 just on the tower, since I don't have a monitor, keyboard, mouse, any of that.

The list goes a little over, but that's because I did pick some better options in some places. Wondering if I'm really overdoing it though for my needs? Or even underdoing it I guess it's possible haha.

Here is a link. Or copy and paste: http://pcpartpicker.com/list/RbzKpb

Made it cheaper for you while getting you a better psu. You could save even more by srapping the disc drive. Do you even need it?
