Hi,
I am looking into a complete upgrade to my current system which is about five years old now. I have a budget of about $3500 AUD, to include all components (PC, screen, new speakers etc) with the only exclusions being Mouse/Keyboard and another monitor.
I am looking to make a twin 27" monitor setup, one 4k, one 120hz 1080p. This will be used for editing on two screens and also multitasking during gaming. I will be using the PC for both 4k video/creative work and also for 4k gaming. I am looking for the best performance possible, with editing speed being a priority. I will have two separate operating systems, each one for gaming and video editing exclusively.
The theory is I will load video footage onto the SSD drive and edit on that drive, then transferring the project onto the HDD for storage ensuring fast editing. I will also be interested into doing some light overclocking of the CPU, but not anything extreme.
This will be my first build without help so any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
