**A Comprehensive Guide to Building a Rising 7 Editing and Gaming PC**
Building a high-performance gaming PC and editing machine is a complex task that requires careful consideration of various components. In this guide, we will walk you through the process of building a custom PC designed for both editing and gaming.
The first step in building our custom PC was to decide on the storage options. For archiving purposes, I chose to use a 4TB hard drive, but I have since moved my mass storage into a separate server. The video project playlist is now linked directly to the card section of this build guide for easy access. In terms of onboard storage, I opted for a 525GB m.2 NVMe SSD from Crucial. Installing Windows and our most frequently used applications on this drive has resulted in incredibly fast boot times, with a recorded boot time of just six and a half seconds. This is a significant improvement over traditional hard drives or slower SSDs.
For my sister project, I also installed a 2.5-inch SSD, which I use for ongoing video projects and daily Premiere Pro work. While this drive does sacrifice some speed due to its SATA interface, it provides ample storage for all of my files and offers fast read and write speeds. This is essential for seamless editing and rendering tasks.
The brain of our PC build is the CPU, where an eight-core, 16-thread processor from a reputable manufacturer provides a solid foundation for both editing and gaming. I opted for a high-performance CPU that can handle demanding workloads without breaking a sweat. When it comes to storage options, having fast storages like this SSD can make all the difference in terms of overall system performance.
In addition to the CPU, a powerful graphics card is essential for smooth gaming performance and real-time effects in video editing software. For this build, I chose a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 1060 Ti from ASUS, which has been performing flawlessly in testing scenarios, including Adobe Premiere Pro tests. This GPU is also officially certified by Adobe, providing seamless streaming and recording capabilities to platforms like Twitch or YouTube.
To provide adequate airflow for our components, I opted for the Core Master Master Case V5, a highly modular and customizable case that allows for easy access to internal components. The case features five drive bays, including support for SSD mounting options, as well as top-mounted fans and a tempered glass side panel. While I did consider the Core Master 530, which features a stunning tempered glass side panel, I ultimately decided against it due to its delicate nature and the risk of damage.
The power supply unit (PSU) is also a critical component that requires careful consideration when building a PC. For this build, I opted for the Core Master V750, a highly reliable and efficient PSU that has been delivering clean power to my components without any issues. The PSU's high wattage capacity ensures that all of my components are properly powered, even during intense gaming sessions or video editing tasks.
**Conclusion**
In conclusion, building a custom PC designed for both editing and gaming requires careful consideration of various components and their compatibility. By opting for high-performance storage options, a powerful CPU, and a reliable GPU, as well as a highly modular case and efficient PSU, we can create a system that is capable of handling demanding workloads with ease. Stay tuned for part 2 of this guide, where we will walk you through the actual build process.
"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwelcome back to another geek video today I'm kicking off part 1 of my ultimate rising 7 PC build guide this three-part series will take you through the part I chose and how you can pick your own tutorial for how to build this system and then follow finally by in-depth benchmarks and answers to the frequently asked questions asked in the comment section below in this part and I take you over my component choices and justifications behind them so let's get right into it with this CPU the CPR m4 was of course a Rison seven cpu is kind of in the name their lower end 1700 chip this provides the best approach to performance offering what also given some incredible performance with eight cores and sixteen threats from my testing and you can be my dedicated video in the card section now it beats out Intel's Core i7 6800 case which very much would have been its direct competitor prior to X 299 by around ten to twenty percent and even more in professional applications such as editing software and 3d rendering it's a very cool and efficient running chip and come to the fantastics cooler but of course we will be that using somewhere aftermarket CPU calling to give us some good overclocking leverage talking about CPU Colin I went for core masters master liquid Pro 240 it's got a 240 millimeter radiator or a two by 120 mil rad as some people refer to it which fits nicely in the front of the case we've gone for it includes two of them nice silent fans with Robert dampened corners by default but you can of course add another two fans I opted for their RGB LED fans which they only provided two on the inside dealer push-pull configuration the tubing is nice and long and will run very very easily to your CPU and the waterblock has a blue LED which fits in with my overall color agenda shall we say for this system for the motherboard I help my friends out Asus who kind of provided me with that x3 7tf Strix gaming board I love a review of this up on this channel very very soon but I've been very impressed design-wise is fantastic in a nice neutral gray and black color scheme it's got a fantastic IO as well with USB 3.1 gen2 type A and type C for 10 gigabit of USB 3.1 bandwidth also got four random stocks as well we support for SLI and crossfire it really doesn't tick all the boxes overall it's a fantastic motherboard and also not on the most expensive x 370 boards I've seen just fairly attainable for most people and fits well within this those caliber and builds budget with that Rison 70 1700 CPU for the RAM crucial Connie provided nearly 64 gigabytes of ddr4 memory clocked out 3000 megahertz risin loves faster ram and it really ticks all the boxes once again having a lot of RAM for large video projects and 4k files is really really important and many people go you don't need 64 gigs believe you me from the first shown on Twitter the other day I've literally hit 62 63 gigabytes of RAM when putting together large video editing projects such as this series one thing to note is that rising can be a little bit temperamental with rounded likes fast clock round but did have some issues on this asus motherboard with all four limbs is 64 gigabytes in a four by sixteen din configuration it does take a lot of tweaking to get working for example enabling XMP you also have to change the run timings manually as well so lettings down a little bit in order to get things to work at the speed may be a sacrifice you're willing to make in order to get the full 64 gigabyte of ram availability for storage i would recommend people pick up a 4 or 6 terabyte hard drive when it is in 4k footage for archiving but personally i've chose to move my mass storage into a separate server the video project playlist for which are linked in the card section now and now in terms of on-board storage the boot drive I've gone for it's also from crucial massive shout out to them to the support on this project is a 525 gigabyte n dot 2 SSD installing windows and all our most frequently used applications on this drive is so so fast I believe a recorded like a six and a half second boot which is incredible especially when I've got all my games and my applications loaded on here in a bit of it yeah messy desktop wallpaper those things all contribute to slowing down boot times but nevertheless it worked through like a champ I've also got the sister project to this end up to drive the two and a half inch SSD as well in this system another 525 gig solid-state drive the sacrifices some speed we use the SATA interface instead of the MDOT to drives do take up some your PCIe Lane to may restrict certain crossfire and SLI our expansion card options I'm using the secondary drive for all of my ongoing video projects and using it as a really fast read and write drive for a daily Premiere Pro which looks at fast storages all good having a great eight core 16 thread CPU and 64 gigs around a good graphics card if you storages and up to screw you can see a major bottleneck there with read and write speeds in the region of five to six hundred megabytes per second you really won't be disappointed with either of these SSDs for the GPU in this build I went for a gtx 1066 gigabyte model which was wondering and kind of provided by the guys over at asus and it's been performing like a champ the ten stixxay has actually come out in many testing scenarios on power to 10:17 even 1080 in Adobe Premiere Pro tests and is an officially certified card by Adobe which once again and on the side of caution in terms of reliability it's the latest version with the higher bandwidth throughput this graphics card as well it's very cool ridden gives you all the advantages of NVIDIA GeForce experience such as the h.265 encoder on the card allows you to seamlessly stream to twitch or to YouTube or to record gameplay or desktop footage which is going to be really useful for me as a content creator for the case I went for core masters master case of 5 it gives fantastic modularity options or allows you to remove hard drive bays for example and add different accessories and thicker push/pull radiators in as I have done it's got loads and loads of space for an ATX motherboard it separates your power supplies it's a little zone and has loads of support for SSD mounting options if you don't want to use the hard drive cages it's also got five hundred quarter inch bays although the amount for this can also be removed to increase radiator mounting support and also give you a little bit more space to add other accessories and if you wish it supports top mounting fans and comes by default with three 140 millimeter fans which gives you great airflow options straight out of the box I opted not to step up to the make of five version from Coolermaster which has a nice tempered glass side panel of them often going in and out my case swapping parts out testing graphics cards or RAM or storage that kind of thing and having a tempered glass side panel comes a bit more fiddly and a bit more delicate and I've almost dropped many a tempered glass side panel I didn't want to do that today so opted for the standard plastic window with a nice little bezel around the outside to give me some good cable mounting options and bit more flexibility in that in LED strips and that kind of thing it makes it look really really nice for the power supply it was another core master affair the V 750 is a fantastic power supply that I've owned for Animas six months now they sent me this for my cable a build guard which can be viewed in the card section now and I've been nothing short of impressed but that wraps it all for the first part of my rising 7 editing a gaming PC build guide I've been using this now for a couple of weeks
