Recommend me PC for Video Editing/Compositing & Gaming

[Nanaboostme]

I decided to transition back to PC from an iMac for Video Editing with Avid, Adobe, Photoshop, DaVinci.

Since I have been using Mac exclusively the past decade, I would love some recommendation on the specs that would give the best performance and stability for high-rendering FX and stability.

Price range = $2250 - 2500

Not sure if you needed a monitor, just gave an example of a decent 1440p display. Would be a whisper quiet system, even with the added case fan for the front.

Depends ultimately. I use Avid, Premiere, Photoshop, After Effects, Cinema 4D and DaVinci which can be used on both Mac or PC but ultimately PC has more potential for customization and upgrading especially when what you do is FX heavy
