Help! I need a budget ($500-600) video editing PC build

[Strawwbury]

Hi I need a budget ($500-$600) PC build for xbox recording and video editing/rendering/uploading (Mostly rendering and uploading speed). So multiple programs like YouTube, Sony Vegas and Adobe programs running smoothly at the same time. I need all parts. This will be my first time ever building a pc. Thank you in advance!

Know that video editing and rendering are some the hardest things we ask our computers to do. $500-600 is almost too little to bother with. But we're nickel and diming here... Below is a list of parts that should edit 1080p perfectly fine. Rendering will take a little time, however. Start the process and go to bed, school, work, whatever. This list does not include monitor, speakers/cans, keyboard or mouse. Total: $597.84. Hope this helps!

if you can dish out the extra dough an r9 270 avg price $150 will wreck the 750ti ftw

Agreed, especially in gaming. The reason I spec'ed the 750 Ti is twofold.

1. The R9 270 is going to push the limits of the 500W PSU, especially video editing and rendering for hours on end.
2. Content creation aps, especially Adobe, seem to favor nVidia's products.

There's not an AMD GPU that can take the 750 Ti that I would run on 500W or less. I'd move to an open box or refurb special of a GTX 960 ($170) first. Just my two cents.

Because you won't be doing any gaming on the pc its self, you don't need a graphics card. This will totally crush all of the other recommendations while being smaller and quieter.
