❗ Full list of PC parts: https://kit.co/whoismatt/700-budget-video-editing-pc-2019
It’s 2019! Which means it’s time to show you the best budget video editing PC that you can easily build yourself for $700! This computer is not only significantly faster than my last budget build I posted back in 2017, it’s also cheaper! Perfect for video editing in Adobe Premiere Pro, Da Vinci Resolve, and nearly any other editor.
This video will cover all the parts that you need as well as explain why I recommended them. In addition, I also added some upgrade parts that are a bit more expensive but should make this computer even faster.

Great video. I’ve been looking into something that I can upgrade my existing Windows 7 editing setup to, but it seems that all the motherboards I have found require Windows 10. Does this setup too? Did last years build also require windows 10?
Can i hook up my dual monitors to this build? Just sub to you off of this video alone! I love Adobe and i need me a fast computer!
Hi Matt, can i use this AMD for building this pc? https://www.amazon.de/dp/B07STGGQ18/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_1?keywords=amd+ryzen+5+2600+prozessor+mit+wraith+stealth+kühler+-+yd2600bbafbox&qid=1579006666&sr=8-1-fkmr1
Hi Matt! Hope you see this. Had a question. I’m building a new PC after 4/5 years. Getting a Ryzen 2600x with a 1660 6GB and 16GB of ram. Would that be ideal for smooth editing for 1080p 60fps gaming footage? Thanks a bunch. Love your tutorials btw.
What do you do if you need more than just one hard drive?
Thank you SOOOO much Matt! I built my PC with your GREAT tutorial. It’s so COOOOL!
Ottimo video! Passa dal mio canale se ti va! 😉
Did this exact build like 6 months ago and been upgrading parts when can afford it. Just got an rtx 2060 super 3 fans. wish I hadn’t cheaped out on the m.2 ssd. Originally got a 250 gig and only have 10 gigs left. Just ordered a 1tb Samsung ssd nvm plus and a nvm usb nvm enclosure, gonna clone my ssd to the new one and make it my boot ssd. I noticed the pins are different on the budget ssd and the new one. Before I ordered I came back to this video to look at the upgraded parts and the pins on both were different so I figured you know your stuff and different pinned m.2s fit in the motherboard, correct?
Can I edit videos using Adobe Premiere with this? (No graphics card) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07SXNDKNM/ref=ox_sc_act_title_4?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1 using complex transitions effects, for example, all features present in the program. Thank you.
What about after effect can we do intros and some simple effects on this PC when we buy the higher price options? Answer please
Why Windows and not MacOS? Could I build this PC but install MacOS?
would this build be any good for gaming as well?
Don’t get AMD for Premiere, you won’t be able to use CUDA.
Please can msi 1660 Ti ventus oc edith 4K in adobe?
So many of the components are unavailable now. HELP!
Can I use this for music production too ? Thanks..
Great vid 👍🏾
What if you just want to run filmora 9? Can you buy or build a computer for less than 700?

AMD is best for editing
When the video started I thought I clicked on the Phantom of the Opera
Matt, what kind of media drive do you recommend, as in external mass storage? Coming from a guy who has only previously used USB & Firewire drives…yeah, I’m out of the game.
Would this build work for gaming and streaming?
great video. straight to point and very informative.
interesting and well done video. Actually looking to build a video server for handling a number of IP cameras – security server – I’ve been looking at that Ryzen processor – a very good option.
Know of another keyboard option for this build
Is it worth if i put a Ryzen 5 2400g or Ryzen 5 3400g??
Pleeeassseee make a 2020 build! I’m having so much trouble with my computer 🙁
Can I add a additional 2t hard drive to this build
This is really bad dont buy IT!!!
You shuld buy a rx 570 8gb card instead
Will there be any noticeable difference in these cards for 4k editing – Zotac GTX1650 super , GTX 1060 or Inno3d GTX 1660ti ?? Which one to buy?
What about a good wireless card?
I came here for the very valuable information but right now I’m all about your Superman curl. You are adorable. Anyway, thank you for your research!
Great advice man. I have actually built a video editing PC based on the recommendations put out by you over here!

Hey Matt – Built an MSi following your tutorials. Fun 🙂 However, I’m experiencing unacceptable lag loading/viewing 4K video off the camera after connecting my Panasonic G85 to Windows 10 machine via USB. I’m shooting 4K 24fps – this new PC’s hardware is way better than my 2012 Macbook Pro and yet the much older Mac instantly loads thumbnails and even plays smooth footage right off the camera. Before I buy an SD card reader, I wonder if you have any suggestions for file management with high res footage and PC’s. Was using Windows File Explorer and then Adobe Bridge – both are slow as mud (and the latter isn’t even loading a thumbnail) Workflow tips PLEASE!! Thanks for the build video
Hi can I ask how about i3 9100f , rx 580 4gb and 16 gb ram is it a good build for 1080p video editing?
Matt or Matt’s smart friends–Help. I’m not 100% sure what I need. I’m a bit Autistic, so when I get paralysis-by-analysis I get stuck for a long time and frustrated beyond anyone’s concept of what Hell may be like. I’m about to pull the trigger on an HP Pavilion Desktop Computer, Intel Core i7-8700, 12GB RAM, 1TB Hard Drive, Windows 10 (590-p0070) I have no idea if I’ll be able to edit 4K on this comp, but more importantly, I need many USB ports for mics, cameras, etc. for music and video production. I’m not a gamer. I want to make higher quality, professional videos. You can see my videos up until now. I am still learning the ropes. The content quality is there, but my technical prowess has much room for improvement.
Now that I’ve seen this video it makes me want to order my own parts and put my own tower together. Maybe my HP has room for expansion. Do you need to solder any of these parts when you build your own computer? That may be a deal breaker.
Can I use "MSI Gaming X RX580 8GB" (which I already have) instead? Thanks
Can i use the gtx 1660 ti instead of the rx580 or the rx580 better than the 1660ti with editing ?? Great video btw
Will you be updating this soon… The 2020 Premier Pro release won’t support my gpu.
Hi, Can you recommend a desktop computer for 4k and VR video editing please. Not parts to build one but one already made. my budget is $1200. Thank you so much.
It’s November 2019. I’m starting this build…
Nice Video!
Have a question, do a i5- 9700k and a rtx2070 8gb with 16gb of ram is enough?
That was very helpful. Thanks for this!
Hi Matt,
Awesome video! Short and simple, makes me want to start building my new pc immediately.
Quick question: are there any motherboards that still have IEEE 1394 port aka Firewire?
Everyone is gone now digital, I know, but I also have my old Canon HV30 camcorder that uses mindv tapes.
Any ideas?
Your help much appreciated!
Thanks
Can u use this for gaming?
This helped so much thank you for putting this video together.
Hey Matt. This video is amazing and its what i needed. Question, do you or would you do a client build? Like I buy the parts ship them to you and pay for whatever cost would come up.
The case mentioned in this video is no longer available. Will the 510 work basically the same?
Ryzen 7 2700x at micro center is fucking $130 holy shit it’s a steal
