High performance for serious 1080p, 1440p and some 4k video editing
Achieving the best value is not just about choosing the optimum price/performance components but also ensuring they will work together in a balanced system. Video editing computers need all the key components to work together to achieve consistently good results. If your system is out of balance, the performance drops to the level of the lowest performing part.
Our best value system offers upgrades to the CPU, GPU, chassis, motherboard and cooling. The GPU is now the RTX3070 8GB card. The 8GB of VRAM is useful for handling 4k video and the graphic processor is very high performance. The RTX series of cards also feature the faster GDDR6 memory which helps the card perform slightly better in most editing situations than the similarly priced older generation RTX 20 series cards. The CPU is now the Core i7-9700K which offers a frequency boost and two additional cores over the older i7-8700 model. The motherboard is upgraded to the MSI Z390 Gaming Edge AC which is a very high performance board featuring two high speed USB 3.1 Gen 2 ports and dual M.2 NVMe storage slots, both of which are able to operate at their full bandwidth. The cooling is provided by the Corsair H100X Liquid cooler which is very quiet under load while also offering very high performance. This is a system able to handle lengthy bouts of rendering and exporting of video.
The Be Quiet! Pure Base 600 chassis is very well made. It uses quality materials inside and out and there is soundproofing material added to the inside panels in order to keep fan noise to a minimum. There is plenty of internal space for adding in more storage drives at a later date.
This system will breeze through 1080p and QHD (1440p) editing tasks and will also handle 4k content. The 32GB of memory will be the limiting factor in 4k editing so if you plan to undertake lengthy edits in 4k, we recommend upgrading to 64GB of memory.
At Punch Technology, we have many years experience of developing high performance computers for a variety of tasks. Our specifications are arrived at by undertaking countless hours of testing and research to achieve the very best results for our customers.
