Hi
I have doing some home work for a while looking to build a PC to handle mainly video editing and to play few games for relaxation. I have looked on pcpartpicker but nothing has convinced me yet.
While looking for one to build i came across this used pc, which at first look ok when seeing the components. But the question whether this pc handles both video editing (4k preferable) and gaming is the right one to purchase i don't know.

Does someone have an idea and how much is this pc worth?

AMD RYZEN 7 2700 16 CPUS 3.2
GTX 1070 EVGA HYBRID 8GB
RAM G SKILL 16 GB
SAMSUNG nvme 256 gb AND 750 hdd
MOBO ASUS ROG B450
CASE COOLER MASTER (https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1445539-REG/cooler_master_mcb_b530p_khnn_s01_masterbox_mb530p_computer_case.html)
Also the seller is including this Monitor 27 hp ZR2440w

Many thanks in advance!

It can depend on what version of Resolve you are running, what resolution you want to use and how complicated the videos would be - See https://filmora.wondershare.com/video/davinci-resolve-system-requirements.html

I do YouTube videos <Mod Edit> and I've done this on a few PCs. I only use 1080p. I use PowerDirector.
I found my R1700, 16gb ram and Radeon R9 nano just fine. I now have 32gb and the 3900x and radeon vii which runs a bit better but nothing great. I'm now spending more time playing on FS2020 (thanks a lot Mr Covid).

I will need to use the pc for youtube video editing and i will use the free version of Davinci Resolve. From the specs you have presented looks like that the one I've presented will do just fine.
