Hi everybody, as the title says I’m trying to help my gf with building an editing pc. She is a freelance videographer so she needs to be able to edit the footage she shoots (4k). Her current macbook is near the end of its life, it keeps freezing and isn’t able to keep up with her demands.

I have been doing a bit of research into what makes a good editing pc. I am most definitely not as familiar with everything as I used to be so here I am asking for your opinion. I would like to know what I should upgrade, downgrade of just change all together.

The build I have come up with so far (Budget around €2000):

• CPU: Intel Core Ultra 7 265K 3.9 GHz 20-Core Processor
• CPU Cooler: be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 5 CPU Cooler
• Motherboard: MSI B860M GAMING PLUS WIFI Micro ATX LGA1851 Motherboard
• Memory: Kingston FURY Beast 64 GB (2 x 32 GB) DDR5-6000 CL30 Memory
• Storage: Samsung 990 Pro 2 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive ($179.99 @ Abt)
• Video Card: ASRock Phantom Gaming OC Arc A770 16 GB Video Card
• Case: Fractal Design North ATX Mid Tower Case
• Power Supply: Corsair RM750e (2023) 750 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply
