    Need new Video Editing computer.

    I am with OSU, I am a AMD fan boy and a Nvidia graphics person, but I just built a 13th gen Intel I9 13900K, radeon 7900 XTS with two 1 TB NVME gen 4 drives and 64 gigs of ddr5. I must say inpressive. I imagine the 14 series would be even better. Build your own, buy windows, no extra bloatware...

    SD 4k flex
