It’s a ritual I’ve lived through over and over, and one I am about to embark on now, again, as one of my older computers, used mostly for email and writing and photo editing for the web, is getting to a point where it takes a loooong time to get even the most simple things done.
I’ve also helped others to define their best PC builds. That’s when I found MSI suggestions for “The Productive 4k Video Editing PC Build”, subtitled “Perfection Comes From Within”. MasterCase H500P, Cooler Master AIO Cooler RTX 2080 VENTUS 8G, Seagate 3.5” Hard Drive Clear Vision Media LLC, Think Media, Sean Cannell, and other encompassed entities are not responsible for any damages that result from an effort to implement the information provided in this or any other video, article, social media post, and related publications. This helps your memory to perform at its best and delivers perfect stability at the same time. offers four extra M.2 slots to increase your storage capacity at maximum speed. With all the external connections you may expect, including plenty of USB ports on the rear and front, including Type-A & Type-C USB ports, the MSI SLI PLUS motherboard even has LIGHTNING USB 3.1 Gen2 ports, which enables two USB devices to transmit data up to 8 GB/s at the same time. When you edit videos in multiple streams at the same time, the amount and speed of your RAM affects the time it takes to process the video(s) and render previews.” Buying a motherboard that allows you to go beyond the RAM values currently being used means you can keep your system for a longer period of time simply by adding more memory, a faster processor and more powerful graphics card. Plenty Of Fast Internal Storage Connectors. One such example is with graphic cards, that in recent generations became so big they would not fit inside many cases, meaning to use them it was necessary to move the whole motherboard and components to a bigger case. It’s always a compromise, and I’ve learned to invest in such a way that my computers last for quite a while, although aware that some components will have to be exchanged, to give the PC a new lease of life. A Seagate BarraCuda Pro 3.5-inch 10 TB hard drive is a fine choice for creative professionals. Years ago, when looking for suggestions and inspiration, I would just open an issue of boot magazine, which from a certain moment on became Maximum PC, and devour the suggestions from the specialists there. Because gaming is an area that asks for powerful computers, it does somehow make sense, as 4K video or video in general also does. I kept reading…. PCPartPicker makes it easy to share your part list with others, and its community forums provide a great place to discuss ideas and solicit feedback.

Simply put: more cores equals faster video processing and more efficiency, even at higher resolutions. Need more disk space? For video editing, you can never have enough RAM or system memory. Buying a big case makes complete sense for me, not only because of the space available, but also because it means it is easier to better control the temperature of the components. The M.2 XPANDER-AERO PCIE card comes with the package of MEG X299 CREATION, MSI is a company known in the circles of computer gaming for its hardware solutions, so the fact that it took the time to suggest a PC for 4K video editing came as a surprise. I am using it to define all the components for my next PC build. With 2018 at the door, some of us will start to imagine what our new computer will look like, and if it will be off-the-shelf or built for its purpose. Although sometimes, when faced with the need to build a new machine, I say to myself that I will buy a pre-built computer, in the end, I can never resist the experience of playing with the different parts to get my “dream machine”… within the limits of my finances. I am building my own new machine and, interestingly enough, some companies, as MSI, think it is the best solution, if you’re willing to take the time to gather all components.
The most important part, though, is not putting all the components together inside the box, but choosing the components for your specific needs.
