Since I wanted to make a general query, I thought maybe I should ask in this thread first, rather than straight away creating a thread.
So, I have to decide on a Video Editing rig. So using Adobe Premiere is a prerequisite. He is starting as a video editor, and would be using a PC to edit his first short movie, after which he would move on to edit various other films, maybe even a professional quality 1080p one.
All I want to know is that what should be the ideal budget for such a rig for only these components together: CPU, Mobo, Cabinet, PSU, GPU, HDD and RAM.
Assuming I already have these: Dell 20 inch LED - IN2030M Monitor, Microsoft KB and Mouse and APC 600VA UPS.
I am not requesting a rig, but on how much strict overall budget can such a rig be assembled, without sacrificing on the quality of the setup. Can we have such a rig around 30k? I know it can be easily done in ~50k, but since he's just starting, a strict budget is preferred.
