Medium Budget Gaming/Video Editing PC

[TheLonelyShrub]

I'm looking for some advice and some suggestions for a brand new PC, it must be under $1700aud. It's going to be a completely new system which means, I need a monitor, mouse keyboard, OS, CPU cooler and of course the PC its self.

Wait for enthusiast Intel Skylake processors, which are going to be announced this week. Supposedly are amazing overclockers like Sandy Bridge - the Skylake i5 should beat that Xeon.
