I really need a PC to handle my job since my old one is dead.I have a budget around 800$(Actually i have 1000$ but I live in Thailand but the prices here are a little bit higher so i have to set it to about 800$)
I do light video editing and mostly online gaming such as CS:GO WarZ LOL DOTA2

The price must include:
Monitor which i set a budget at 800$
Windows 8.1(Can you guys tell me if the pro version worth the price or should I stick to the normal and get the pro version of Windows 10 later in the future)
8.1 PRO(155$)
8.1(96$)

The Spec I was looking at:
Xeon E3 1231 V3 (273$)
ASROCK B85M PRO3(60$)
GIGABYTE GTX750TI(143$) Is the 760 worth it?Or and other cards that have the same price.I use Sony Vegas
1.0 TB HDD WD BLUE (51$)
DDR3/1600 KINGSTON HYPERX FURY (4X2) (54$)
CORSAIR 550W (VS550) (50$)
Bitfenix Prodigy(83$)

Now I am at 713$ the rest I want to upgrade on the GPU and the MOBO

Others requirement:
No overclock needed now but i might upgrade for overclock in the future.
I will upgrade the GPU at the end of the year.
SSD include would be nice.
No i7 And GTX 970,980 fanboys saying to go for those things pls.However,I might put the 960 in to consideration so i don't have to upgrade at the end of the year.

Throwing high-dollar CPU cores and motherboards at editing/rendering is so last decade ... :)

This is a little above budget but for this price perfrmance wise on editing and gaming at 1080P this is ideal!

thanks for your reply man but 2011 in Thailand is very expensive.1150 prices are close to US prices so i might go with the Xeon E3 1231 V3 and the R9 280x and i might get a H97 board from asrock.Asrock are very cheap here 😀
 


Thanks man.It's very useful.I done some research to and it turns out Sony Vegas uses OpenCL better than cuda.It makes me feel a little bit strange tho.It's the first time I see AMD performs better in video editing
