The basics needed for a good macjine

machine

I'm really just trying to get the basics I will need to run a good machine, I have all the peripherals and I can upgrade then gradually, my current computer is running out of processing power and I need to edit video's, I've never built a computer before and just unsure of mixing parts together.

I guess I need
Tower
Powersource
MOBO
Graphics Card
Ram at least 8GB

Wireless card if it will improve performance, I have a dongle and I get 36MB down so can save there to improve the processor if needed.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated Thanks

1. What is your budget? €300-350

2. What will be the main purpose of the computer? Video editing would be the hardest resource, don't play any high end games.

3. Do you need a copy of Windows? No

4. Can you use any parts from an old computer? I have an external DVD drive

5. Do you need a monitor? No

5b. If no, what resolution is your current monitor and do you plan to upgrade in the near future? [1920x1080/1440x900/etc.]
Currently 1680 x 1050 plan to upgrade in the near future

6. Do you need any of these peripherals? No

7. Are you willing to try overclocking? No

8. How can you pay? All payment methods

9. When are you purchasing? ASAP

Bit over buidget but if either the existing tower or psu could be reused it would be pretty well on budget. I am not sure you would need a dedicate GPU for videoediting, it is mostly a CPU/RAM intensive so you might well find the Intel iGPU is adequate for what you need.
