hi folks, first time poster
After reading thread after thread I am still none the wiser so would like some advice please.
I currently use a laptop from PC Specialist for video editing, web design and gaming. The specs are I7-2670QM Processor, 8GB Ram and NVidia GT555M GPU. This served me quite well for a while but cannot cope with the graphical demands of Adobe Premiere CS6 and After Effects CS6. It is also struggling with COD Black Ops these days.
Anyhow, I am looking to build a desktop PC primarily for video editing but that will also cope with music production and gaming (think new COD and Battlefield games, nothing more really)
I have been looking at the I7-3930K build such as this one http://www.learningdslrvideo.com/new-editing-computer-build/ but think that may be overkill and overpriced and then I have been looking at the Haswell I7-4770K which obviously has very good performance but won't render HD video as well as the I7-3930K
Will the difference between the two be purely how quickly the output files will render or is there something more to it than that?
I was thinking maybe a Nvidia GTX 760 card.
Many thanks in advance.
