@Dan Watson – great video… in your opinion, what are the advantages of using the Synology NAS vs building a custom one yourself, and what was your reason for purchasing it versus a custom one? The specs (1.5ghz celeron, 8gb ddr3 memory, etc) seem pretty limited compared to what you could build for the same price.
The day or week after you purchased a new computer is always the best time to buy a new computer for way less than you spent.
Update, I just finished this build(mostly this exact pc, I just added storage and a bigger cooler). I am switching from Mac for my workflow. The build took me one full day since it was my first build but got through it. The computer is a beast. I am now working to dial in the GPU for Premiere. The motherboard is incredibly expandable. It is overkill for most users but I love it. The processor is awesome. I will give another update once I get the GPU working right.
Hi Dan it’s a few months down the track, what are your thoughts on it after time using it?
TO BUILD A MUSIC AND VIDEO WORKSTATION, YOU NEED AMD RYZEN 9 3950X WHICH HAS 16 CORES AND 24 THREADS. NOCTUA NH-D15 CHROMAX BLACK CPU COOLER, 128GB 3600Mhz CL16 MEMORY. GIGABYTE X570 AORUS MASTER MOTHERBOARD, IT HAS 32 BIT 192KHZ DAC. RTX 2060 SUPER OR HIGHER GRAPHIC GARD. 2TB M.2 NVMe, WD ULTRASTAR 10TB. MINIMUM 2K MONITOR, AOC Q3279VWFD8 QHD 75HZ FREESYNC IPS 32IN 2K MONITOR. 750W 80 PLUS GOLD POWER SUPPLY. DEEPCOOL KENDERMAN ATX MID TOWER CASE OR BETTER. BETTER THAN A $15,000 MAC PRO, AUSTRALIAN. BETTER THAN A THREADRIPPER 2950X
Just bought a 2070 RTX… instantly returned it after reading the 20 series super cards are just around the corner. Really annoying how fast things are eclipsed nowadays. You buy something a week later you are wracked with regret.
Hi, Your comment on Adobe leverging gpu’s.. what’s is that exactly?.. I recently built a pc, i7 9700 cpu, with a Asus motherboard Z390 E gaming.. my gpu is a nvidia geforce gtx founders edition.. I subscribe to Adobe cc premeire pro.. The video has not worked correctly since.. the video play back is completely shaky/studders and choppy as well as the audio…. if I paly the same video through windows it plays perfectly.. What’s your thoughts on this?
Now you have to upload a video about the performance in video and photography!
Pls help somebody . I would like to learn adobe premiere and here is my question . I have got a laptop with i7 3632QM processor and with 12 gb ram , also there is 2 GB geforce 640 lm and here is my dillema. I have an offer to buy desktop with i7 8700 with GTX 1060 with 6 gig of ram . Im doing footage in FHD 1080 60 fps and video lenght is approx 10 min with color correction and subtitlas some transitions apply and music and export to H 264 or HEVC 265 . Is it difference between those two computers so significant or remarkable that is good idea to buy this computer with i7 8700 ?? Or it is just marketing and difference is not so big for my kind of creation .This is my dillema . Pls guys let me know somebody what you think and what you recommend . Thanks in advance . Stay helthy all of you .
Hi Dan. Thx for your video! Gives me great ideas on how to change my proposed system around.
Are you still in love with this computer set-up? I’m looking for a new system for Lightroom and CAD programs. Would you make any changes?
Hi I was wondering if you were making the video on how your workflow is with Lightroom/Photoshop . Like SSD for editing and storing on HDD. I would love to learn cause my setup is getting slower
Would this be considered a decent workstation PC if used for CAD software??
so many new thing i learn,,, thank you
Looking at this system, how did you get around the motherboard having only one USB 2 port yet two are required one for the cooling and one for the case.
Any updates on the RAM? It is discontinued.
can you do a step by step assembly of this buildpc &/laptop with an affordable Tether setup with monitor for home studio and on location
So, if you order all of these, Do you put them together or take them somewhere else? I need to update my PC and really want something custom made but having this done myself is probably out of the question.
intel is trash
Please update links!
Does thunderbolt 3 work out of the box (plug & play)? I have an asus mainboard with an tb3 extension card but i didn’t get it to work properly (and apparently I am not the only one, according to other people on the Internet). It was such a hassle to set up in the UEFI and outdated drivers etc. I am really thinking about getting this board because of TB3 but I’m little sceptic because of the hassle I had with other boards. Thank you for the video!
I hope you have corrected the air flow in this case and moved your gpu to the top pcie slot for maximum bandwidth .
Just what I was looking for thanks bro…
How much does this add up to.
What to build now in 2020?
Why did you choose the i9 instead of the Ryzen 9 3900?
great video, how much for everything? excuse me I’m not a native English speaker.
Can it handle the sony alpha a7riv? Im currently lloking for something that could and that i could work with i dont know if i can use the pc so maybe i will also look for a laptop
is this build great for streaming?
Dan is pretty dope
Hi.
Can quadro p2000 be used with i9 9900k 5ghz (desktop) Processor.
Will adobe premier work on rtx 2060 8gb . Else what could be the best (mid budget)gpu
Please help.
I was just about to click purchase on all of this from your links but before I do, could you give me an update on how it is all going for you with this build? Any info on how it handles After Effects, Premiere Pro, Lightroom, Photoshop, etc. I’m a videographer and photographer as well, need a new set up. This looks great but would like to hear thoughts after a few weeks of use. I am not concerned about gaming, just pro work flow. Thanks in advance for your response and thanks for this video!
so you think even using a lot of After Effects and Premier Pro the 9900K is fine and the i9 9700X is an overkill?
What’s kind of cooler did you used?
What about i7 9700k?
This case is really great! The cooling is considered to be not as good as the H700 but I have excellent temps with mine! I also prefer windows for the fact you can customize every single part.
Great vid. I am a graphic designer and video editor. It is time to replace my 4790k and gtx1060, so I will be doing a very similar build
Thanks Dan. This is exactly the information I was looking for. Great video!
What will be good for a 6k editing GPUs . & does editing mainly rely on the CPU.. my first time building a pc. Don’t wanna overspec my build with unnecessary items ..
Why not run MacOS on it and get the best of both worlds?
Have you tried Resolve with this build? I’m doing multi track 4k resolve work with Prores and Blackmagic RAW, and looking to go from iMac to PC build.
The new Cpu cooler dark Rock Pro, did you had issues with ram? I mean that cooler is huge, did you had issues with the rams?
Just subscribed to your channel after watching the canon t7i video. I’ve had the canon t7i for almost 2 years. I’m going to Hawaii in May and wondering if it will be a good camera to take travel pics or buy one of the sony a6000 cameras??
09/08/2020 Thank you for this information
Thanks for the video, but the music sucks…
Could this also be good for gaming? I’m new to PC’s. My wife and I were looking for a PC to edit photos and play games.
I used to build PCs when I was in high school (2004) actually the computer I have from back then still blows most things away
!?!?! $1,500 just for Basics (HDD x2, MB, CPU, CASE, PS, Ram, GFX, and Cooling system?!?!
WOW dude, which ultra disconnected reality do you live in?!
In 2019 USA, $1,500 is budget for the monthly rent on a NY apt or a 15 year old used car, not for a 4k PC.
CLICK BAIT!!!
For a CPU air cooler chek out the Phanteks PH-TC14PE or the Noctua NH-D15
I have an i5 7500 7 gen, 32 gb of ram but i need a rtx 2070 i in to graphis designing and editing.
