Tower build

[G-Unit]

Hey peeps. So I'm putting forth serious effort and investing in a new home PC.
i will be using it for mostly editing, & production of sorts.
my budget for the build will prolly cap at 2500 but im willing to go big for the right performance.
Now the reason I'm posting this is because i was hoping some of you could offer me suggestions on: suggested builds, some parts you use, compatibility issues, where you prefer to buy your parts from, && basically any info you can offer someone doing their first tower build.
This is just my first build, but im fairly computer literate. Just been out of the loop for a whhiillee :/
Any good info helps, thanks

2500 dollars? Mate for 1500 you can make the best possible.

If i could save some money that would be dank
Here was a suggested build someone provided me .
Ive been doing two solid months of research and still fizzy so i need some real hard up info from some experienced folks.

Ooooh a tower build. Your current spec looks pretty good, but I recommend 16gb ram instead of 32gb - it'll barely make any difference to gaming which I assume you'll be doing.

Other than that, all looks good

Thats good info. Is it worth mentioning that ill be doing mostly editing and minimal gaming?

Ah fair enough - may as well go for the 32gb then

Which games do you intend to play? If it isn't anything too high-end, you may not need a 980 TI, unless that's for future-proofing/video editing.

i havent even thought about games tbh, mostly which editing programs I'll be using. && i dont mind future proofing, probably prefer it haha. but definitely video editing, so might just have to 980ti

Almost identical to what I have.
I put in a M.2 drive and did a custom loop instead.

If you're going AIO WC, check out the EK Predator (240/360).
