description below
just a quick note i have made reviews
pretty much of all of the parts that i'm
actually talking about as well as the
cpu which is the main component in this
build so i highly recommend you check
out those reviews on my channel i'm
going to leave them linked in the
description as well as the parts of
everything i'm talking about over here
so if you're wondering and you want to
build these things i'm going to leave
the links down there you can just click
on them and then it will lead you to
your local shop worldwide so whether
you're watching from us germany uk
wherever you are from you can just click
on those and they will link you to your
local shop so you can buy those parts
and get exactly the same parts and know
that the compatibility of all of those
will work if you want to know how this
pc will be built then i'm going to be
building very similar system with using
a lot of those same components very soon
on the channel so hit subscribe if you
want to see that or you can just check
out some of the previous builds i've
done on the channel and you can just you
know switch out your component and then
you'll know how to build this pc let's
jump right in first of all the cpu which
is the core of this spilled this is also
the best bang for buck build i think if
you're gonna go any less than that
you're going to seriously hinder the
performance and if you're going to go
any higher than that you're going to pay
a lot more than that so i do think this
is the best bank work of the whole build
and the cpu i have chosen is the i5
and if you haven't seen the review of
this chip yet then you really need to go
check it out because the tables have
turned and the best bang for buck in the
lower end or this it has gone back to
intel it's not amd anymore and this chip
is so impressive that it even managed to
keep up overall score with the ryzen 9
59 50 x 16 car monster which is
ridiculous and a lot of the performance
of this cpu comes from the igpu that's
inside the chip as well so you've got a
little gpu inside the cpu which also
helps with video encoding and decoding
especially when you're working with h264
and 5 codecs if you are a davinci
resolve editor then the news is even
better for you because every single
h3265
codec is hardware accelerated with this
gpu so even if you're running like 10
bit 4 2 2 or 4 4 4 codec of h.265
whatever frame rates this is absolutely
going to breeze through it like like
you're editing 720p footage on a
high-end test or pc go check out the
timeline performance of this gpu cpu
sorry on my channel and you'll see what
i'm talking about for premiere pro users
the news aren't so good but still a lot
of the main h264 and v codecs are
accelerated on the igbo which makes this
chip just like there is nothing like
that on the market and it performs even
better than the 5900x 5950x from the
ryzen systems and that's why we're going
with this intel system next of all we
need to put this cpu in to a motherboard
and for you i have two options and i'll
explain why i have two boards one of
them is the gigabyte z690 aero g ddr4
and the other option is asus pro art
b660 creator d4 motherboard now both of
these motherboards are ddr4 which i
think you should be going for for that
budget ddr5 is not worth it in your
budget just don't go for it if you want
to know how much ddr5 is better or worse
go check it out on my channel i've got
it linked up there as well both of these
motherboards cost roughly around the
same amount roughly around 290 dollars
or so but the very good thing about this
asus pro art board is that if you are
using adobe premiere pro or in fact any
of the adobe apps and you've got
creative cloud membership then with this
board you're going to get three months
for free even if you already have the
license you can still redeem them and
not pay for three months or get three
months extra which you can deduct from
the cost of this motherboard and the
three months depending on your situation
if you're a business then it could be up
to 238
obviously if you're individual is
roughly around 100 and 50 160 or
something like that which makes this
board very very affordable it doesn't
have quite as many features as this
gigabyte arrow g over here so if you are
davinci resolve editor for example and
you don't have creative cloud membership
then this aero g might be a better
option for you because this has a lot
more options there's four m.2 storage
over here they're all pci 4.0 capability
a lot of fast usb ports usb c ports
you've got wifi and bluetooth built in
everything you pretty much want is on
this motherboard and it's amazing even
video output through usbc which is very
unique this is the best ddr4 motherboard
for the 12th gen 4 creators go check out
the review if you want to know more
about this board or if you want to know
more about this but the review for this
is out there as well it is great to
motherboard it's very affordable if you
count in the price difference of
creative cloud but at the same time if
you have to pay full fat price for both
of them then i think you should go with
this board because this board is better
now we have the motherboard and cpu
there is time to cool this system down
and for the cooler i have chosen this
guy over here this is the arctic freezer
34 esports duo and i was super impressed
with this cooler when we tested this
cooler on the 12 900k that pulled 240
watts from the socket and it was
actually able to keep up with that now
the 12 600k has much less of a tdp and
there isn't that much to worry about so
this cooler is going to keep up with it
very very well and it's very affordable
you can get this for roughly around 46
and depending on the color schemes
because there's different colors
available for this cooler you pick the
one you want depending on you know which
motherboard you go for in which case
color so there's options for you there
some of the colors are a little bit more
expensive or less expensive but this
black and gray version is 46. and it's
amazing cooler for that price point
links in the description below next of
the ram and for ram i have chosen the
team group tfos vulcan set and 32
gigabytes of it 32 gigabytes i think is
the minimum spot you should be going for
when doing video editing or 4k video
editing and you know your wedding
filmmaker you're doing freelancing or
something like that it's okay amount but
if you can one of the first things i
would upgrade is the ram 264 gigabytes
which is just double the amount of ddr4
which is just double the cost of 32
gigabytes so 32 gigabytes of this ram
will cost you roughly around 109
and 64 gigabytes is gonna cost you 220
dollars i'm going to leave the links for
both of these in the description below
but this ram is just the best bang for
buck in the middle ground there you're
gonna get the most for your money the
most performance i have tested faster
ram kits and ddr5 and even ddr5 and this
ram is not far behind and you're only
going to lose a few percent but the
price is gonna ramp up very very quickly
that's why we're going with this
particular model and spec of ram a tip
over here is i highly recommend you go
with dual stick rather than four sticks
of the capacity one so in the future you
can actually double the capacity if you
need more ram for example if you want to
start with 32 gigabytes just plug it in
there and then later on when you want to
upgrade you can upgrade it to 64
gigabytes next off we need to have an
ssd to run our programs and projects now
this is the part that's often overspent
on it really depends on your workflow
and your budget you know how much you
need of this i have chosen one terabyte
of a drive and this is in this an
enclosure over here i am using this for
my external ssds but inside here is the
western digital sn 550 and it's about
2.4 gigabytes per second read and write
speeds and you're paying about 80 or 90
dollars for it roughly around there
which is a seriously good price for it
and even if you want to say to you know
the old-school 2.5 inch ssds old school
this is really going to be cheaper for
that because some of these sata ssds
from one terabyte are going to be around
100
and this is four to five times faster
than the sata drives and costs less now
there is few deals and few options
available even when i'm making this
video i found the sabrin rocket one
terabyte the pci 3.0 drive for 85
which is even faster and even better
drive and i've been using these on a lot
of my builds so i highly recommend this
drive on another drive i'm gonna leave
in the description as well is the
crucial p2 which is roughly around the
same speed as this western digital
sn550 so all of these drives are very
good for your operating system and
depending on your needs you might
already have some drives but you i
recommend you get another drive for your
project drive where you put all your
video project files in there and then
you edit off that so your programs and
projects are separately if you want to
know how you know the real storage
workflow should work then i've got
another separate video on the channel
feel free to check that out up there i'm
not sure if i have enough cards to put
up there i'm going to leave it in the
description below if it's not up there
and then another video i highly
recommend you is the ssd mistakes that
creators can make when buying the ssd
mistakes or some of the brandings and
lots of things that people often not
think about i've got a full guide how to
choose a create ssd for your workflow
even if you're on a budget or a high-end
creator feel free to check that out i'm
gonna leave it in the description as
well now the gpu the stuff that is
probably the most interesting about the
part and yet the hardest to find on the
world at the moment for this build i
have chosen the rtx 3060 and you can get
that roughly around 800
new on amazon or ebay or different
retailers depending if you can get it
for msrp or any of the queues or newex
shuffle for example uh you're gonna get
it even cheaper but it's very like
normal price to pay 800 for it you know
in the market at the moment hopefully by
the time you're watching this video it's
gonna be even cheaper but the reason
we're choosing rtx 3060 and nothing
above it because you have a killer
media engine inside the gpu sorry cpu
well you have a gpu inside your cpu
which makes the video playback already
so much faster and you don't really need
the nvidia encoders inside the gpu so
the rtx 3060 is well enough for any of
the 4k editing you're doing even complex
you know wedding projects that are
layers and layers of different stuff
it's gonna be well enough for that so if
you're wondering which rtx 3060 you
should buy for just go for whichever one
is the cheapest even the lhr low hash
rate they're pretty much performing
exactly the same as the 30 60 in
creative video editing performances so
you don't need to worry about that just
go with any of the rtx 3060s you can
find i'm going to leave a few links in
the description below two more things we
need for this build is the power supply
and case for the power supplies the
price is very different things what i
really recommend you to go for is
something solid don't really cheap out
than the power supply because it's not
that big of a difference in terms of
price but the quality can be massively
different so higher quality power
supplies will give you 10 or 12 years of
warranty on the power supply so you have
a peace of mind that you know the juice
that you're giving to all of your
components is is very high quality it's
not you know it's like buying a race car
and putting cheap fuel in you really
want to put the high quality fuel in to
make the highest performance and to get
the best engine performance and all that
so for that i have chosen the evga
supernova 650 watt power supply because
at the moment i found this on a deal for
70 dollars which is amazing it's a fully
modular power supply 650 watts which is
plenty to power all of our systems over
here and we have even a little higher
headroom and it's very power efficient
as well it's 80 plus gold power rated
i'm also going to leave a few other
options in the description below just in
case the evj you know spikes in price or
you want a different model you want to
go with maybe some coarser ones or be
quiet ones or seasonic ones or something
like that i'm gonna leave a few options
in the description below now last of all
the case of this build i've got this
case over there actually and you'll see
some b-roll hopefully of this because
it's too big i don't have space to put
another pc here on the table but the
case is corsair 4000 d and we're not
gonna go with the airflow version there
is an airflow version as well if you
want to check this out i'm gonna leave
it in the description as well but it's
slightly more expensive but the truth is
the non-airflow version is pretty good
at airflow as well so depending like
which look you like and if you want the
more airflow which isn't that you know
big of a difference it's plenty of
airflow even with the non airflow
version and this case is going to cost
you around 75 and there's a black and
white versions available so you can
choose which one you want you know
depending on the theme you will go for
here or the cooler or the gpu you can
customize this and that's the good bit
of building your own pc for you know
video editing and that's gonna wrap up
the build and this is very high quality
parts all of them are very high quality
parts and you can have the peace of mind
that these will last and you're not
getting anything cheap or anything you
know random that brings me to the point
of why you shouldn't still buy a
pre-built pc but build your own i
understand that you know building a pc
might be a little bit scary for a lot of
people but if you look at some of the
tutorials just have a look at my like
one hour long build video how to build a
pc and you'll see it's not actually that
hard and just reading the manual it
might take a little bit of time your
whole day spend one day building a pc
but you'll get something very very good
because if you compare a price of of
this to something pre-built just have a
look online any pre-built for the same
price like around fifteen sixteen
hundred dollars you're gonna get either
um pants which in uk means just rubbish
pants components very low quality power
supply like maybe the cpu and gpu is the
only like quality stuff everything else
is cheap your motherboard is something
cheapest that you you can find and it's
very low end and it's not worth it and
that's why i think get you still gonna
get a better deal when building your own
and it's the same with going with apple
a lot of people you know you might be
wondering or you want to debate under
the comments below or you should be
getting a macbook pro for the same
amount honestly for this a price point
this will absolutely wipe the macbook
pros because if you want the macbook pro
with the m1 pro chip you're gonna pay a
little bit more than our budget over
here and you're stuck with your choice
here you have so much more upgradability
and you can use some of the components
later on you can if you want to you can
get an i7 or i9 put it in there you get
even faster performance but you don't
have to you can really like configure it
to your budget whereas when you're going
with apple you don't have to and if
you're wondering how the performance
will work i've got a video on my channel
you can do some research in there but
apple is you know it's very good in
terms of portability but i think you're
still gonna get best performance for
your money best bang for buck if you're
building this system compared to the
apple system so everything i've talked
about is linked in the description below
if you want to pick out any of those
parts and build it thanks guys for
watching as always subs if you'd like to
see more likes if you enjoyed this video
and i'll meet you in the comment section
below good luck with building this pc
and let me know if you have built this
and if you want to see me build
something very similar we'll do that
soon
bye
