SO basically I want to build a custom iMac for Video Editing use, but I'm trying to figure out what's the best configuration for my needs seeing as I'm a beginner and this will be for my own time hobbies. It's strictly for website management, picture and video editing. I want to make youtube videos.
FIrstly i want an imac 27 Inch, i7 Processor 4.0 GHZ
8gb of ram & 512gb flash storage. AMD Raedon r9 m395x 4gb Video Memory
Basically the issue is that I don't know if I need the M395x or if I should just settle for the M395 what's the difference between the two & will I feel the difference? Also the flash storage is an issue too, I want to get the 1tb, it will give me more space and also have a better resale value In the future, but is It worth it? I plan to have external hard drives holding my projects, can somebody explain to me how many prograEd, music, pictures and videos 512gb can store. Also can I feel the difference?
Regarding the ram, I plan to increase it on my own, retail price is too expensive.
Also as I stated before. I want to use this for youtubing, main programs are Photoshop & Final Cut Pro. Also I will be streaming on Twitch.
Would it be a better idea to wait for the next year iMac to come out instead?
The current total for the iMac I described earlier is $4,562 CAN
p.s it's an extra $800 for 1tb Flash Storage
