Hi guys, I'm back.

My friend is looking to build a video editing rig, budget will be around 2-2.4k. Here's a skeleton I came up with but I'm quite sure you guys will have better recommendation

Case Fractal Design R5 Black Window @ $169 PCTheme
MB+CPU Asus Z170 Gaming Pro + Intel i7-6700K @ $789 PCTheme
GPU GTX 970 (MSI, ASUS or ZOTAC?) @ $400-450 Lazada
RAM 16GB (brand recommendation) @ $180 - $200
SSD Samsung 850 EVO SSD 500GB @ $259 PCTheme
HDD WD 2TB Black 7200RPM
PSU 650W (Will this be sufficient?)
CPU FAN CoolerMaster 212x @ $69 PCTheme
OS Microsoft Windows 8 Professional 64-bit Product Key ($30 @ Reddit)
Monitor Dell 23 S2316H IPS Monitor @ $189 PCTheme

Estimate is around 2.4k

Thanks guys!

ram budget can cut in half to $100 and under ... ddr4 not that expensive except outdated pricelists ripoffs

212x is too weak for hitting max overclock
can consider phanteks PH-TC14PE from amazon

suggest you get the 6 core haswell-e
