Programming/Video Rendering Budget Build

[Miguel122]

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to build a budget ($800-$1000) small to medium form factor desktop which I will be using for programming and some video rendering only. I need the computer to be able to rune somewhat quiet for long periods of time as I run/test my programs. Below is my current build but I was wondering if there was anything I could do to make it better or cheaper?

Thank you in Advance

To determine system suitability it is important to know which programs will be used, some favour more cores and some favour faster cores. As well some programs only require a budget GPU while others require high end ones.

For the RAM Ryzen makes use of RAM speed so I upped it to 3200MHz. Be advised that it will have to be setup to achieve this speed.

You don't need a 650W PSU, picked the 550W version of the same PSU.

First off I'd like to thank you for taking the time and answering my question deeply.

To answer your question I will be using Divinci Resolve for my video rendering needs and my programming languages are all CPU and Memory intensive because they are not based around graphical interfaces.

The only thing that remains is that there is some compatibility issues with the motherboard. Are these minor enough to do nothing about or should I change the motherboard?

Thank you for putting this together, I really appreciate it. Is the compatibility issue that PcPartPicker points out a major thing? or should it all work out?
