Hi there.
Within a week or two, I plan to begin purchasing the parts for my first build. The computer's primary purpose is video editing with Adobe’s Master Collection 5 (Premiere Pro).
I want the latest and greatest parts that fall within my budget. All advice is greatly appreciated.
CPU: Intel Core i7-2600K Sandy Bridge BX80623I72600K ($320-Amazon)
MOBO: ASUS LGA 1155 - Z68 - P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3 ($195-Amazon)
RAM (Which would you recommend?): 16GB Corsair 1600Mhz CMZ16GX3M4A1600C9B ($97-Amazon)
OR
G.skill Ripjaws X Series 16gb 240-pin Ddr3 Sdram Ddr3 1600 (Pc3 12800) F3-12800cl9q-16gbxl ($115-Amazon)
PSU: COOLER MASTER Gold Series RS800-80GAD3-US ($160-NewEgg)
GPU: ASUS ENGTX570 ($315-Amazon)
OPTICAL: LG WH12LS38K 12X Internal SATA Blu-Ray/DVD Burner with Lightscribe Support Writer/Drive ($85-Amazon)
HDD 1: WD 500gb (on hand)
HDD 2: WD Caviar Black 1 TB SATA III 64 MB Cache - WD1002FAEX ($137-Amazon)
CASE: Cooler Master HAF X (already purchased)
Do you think I should get an After-market CPU Cooler (if so, which one?)
Total listed here: $1327.00
Thank you very much for taking a look.
