Need help with build for large video editing and rendering.

[Joe]

Hi,

I am a huge novice made a little more wise by this site. I am only spending money on a new pc for a new small business I have set up which my current mac is laughably inadequate for.

These are the requirements:
I will be filming about 10 hours of footage of football games every day. This will then be then edited in Adobe Premier Pro or something similar (very simple edits, adding scoreboard and clock for example). Then they will be exported and uploaded to youtube or something similar. The actual exported footage will probably be about 8 hours in total. This is every day. Any advice would be appreciated as my margins are thin enough as it is without spending money on the wrong PC parts or one that fails from overuse. Below is the computer generated pc build. My budget is about $2000. Appreciate any responses.

That build is spot on for your kinds of workloads. You could save some cash and go with a b550 Motherboard. You may be able to get away with just two drives, one PCIe SSD (M.2 NVMe) and one archive HDD for your backups / archiving.

The rest of the components look good to me and will be able to get the job done.
