White Ninja
by Nat E Posted on: 7/22/2020Build Description
I built this computer for a couple of reasons. The sole purpose was for video editing and music creation. Secondly was to play some light gaming and virtual lab testing system. I am a Musician/IT technician, and music/video is a big part of what I do. So, I needed something that could handle both, and do other things in the process without having to choose weather to close programs because the components are lacking. I use Adobe premiere, photoshop, aftereffects, media encoder, and DaVinci Resolve for video creation and editing. For music I use Pro Tools and Reason. For games I do mostly racing and sports. For my virtual system I use VMware for my test labs for work. With all that said, building something powerful, stable and can handle everything is crucial. I have always used intel for my pass builds but I decided to take a jump to AMD for the first time and must its been great. Went with the Ryzen 3950x and it just powers through everything. Check out the parts I used, some might be overkill but why not lol. I do not like ordering things online and having to wait. So, Microcenter was just the best place to get all the parts I needed to create this build. Just want to say thank you and for making my dream possible.
Favorite Feature
One of the best things I really like about my build is the ASUS Hyper M.2 x16 Gen 4 Card. Since the board have a limitation of only 2 M.2 slots, the card allowed to install more. Some might say its overkill but I say to get fast transfer speeds and with video editing, its a must if you want to really effectively do your work without compromise.
