BUDGET
The components listed below for this rig are selected with fast & smooth
4k video editing in mind. So the total cost of this PC build should always be
around ₹2.5 Lakh depending on pricing fluctuations. At this budget, you are in
the high-end of the custom PC sphere and can ensure you get the top-notch
performance and be future-proof.
A strong motherboard is also required to handle all these high-end components,
future expansions or that may even be your overclocking needs if any, so we
have included a reliable motherboard for this build as well.
UPGRADABILITY
There's no way you can fully future-proof your build for the next 10 years to
come. Intel or AMD could just launch entirely new technology next year making
your current build incompatible with it. But what you can do is use the best
premium motherboard available right now so that you can add some more GBs of
ram, more storage, a new graphics card or possibly a new processor chip.
AMD VS. INTEL
With Intel's 12 Gen Alder Lake CPUs getting a huge boost because of their
iGPU, Intel is the clear leader over AMD in raw performance, taking over AMDs
5000 generation CPUs in not only gaming but productivity and daily life
workloads as well, which are typically AMDs strongholds. Intel is also the
ideal choice if you intend to future-proof your PC build with cutting-edge
technology like PCIe 5.0 and DDR5 memory. Prices for both the processors are
somewhat similar, so if you manage to secure a good deal on Intel's 12th gen,
you should take it.
PERFORMANCE
As mentioned earlier, our build comes with a high-performance CPU & GPU.
With 8 GB of vRam paired with other expensive components, the graphics card is
more than capable of 4k playback and rendering with ease. Talking about
gaming, this build can handle any game you throw at it at max settings while
also producing plenty of frame rates. Nvidia's Ray Tracing technology, it will
further help you enhance your 4k gaming experience as well as VR with
ease.

PREBUILDS FOR 4K VIDEO EDITING
Many people prefer buying a pre-built even if it costs some extra money to save themselves from building the PC themselves which is understandable since not everyone wants to bear the risk. Even though the PC building process is becoming simpler every day as companies are making their components simpler and easy to assemble there still are a lot of things ready for you to mess up and you may even end up frying some of your parts.
For those of you, we have listed 2 prebuilt PCs below both of which are available in India. We still recommend you a custom pc build since not even these 2 prebuilt are as capable as our custom recommendation. If you doubt yourself, you can hire a local professional or an online company to assemble the computer for you.

More than capable of 4k video editing and gaming with ease. Packed with a powerful CPU and GPU combination. Being an expensive custom build, this build will firmly stand its ground against your video editing requirements up to 4k resolutions as well as gaming.
PROCESSOR
This is one of the best processors available right now and is also the latest
generation Intel processor. It's slightly priced higher than AMD's ryzen 9
5950x but it's still fair enough looking over the performance difference.
Unlike AMD which supports iGPU in its APUs alone, Intel supports the majority
of its processors with an integrated GPU circuit and the same for the 12th
generation i9.
The integrated GPU significantly increases the overall performance of the chip
when it comes to 4k video editing when compared to its non-iGPU versions and
AMD's ryzen 9 5950x. You also get support for the latest technologies like
PCIe 5.0 and DDR5 memory.
CPU Cooler - NZXT Kraken X53 73.11 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler
Keeping the processor from getting too hot is important as it directly impacts its performance, too much heat may even kill the processor. That is why it is crucial to have a good cooling system installed in your setup. While doing 4k video edits, you might even want to overclock your CPU to make it render even faster and for that purpose, you should consider a Water cooler for your setup.
NZXT Kraken is best for that purpose, it looks clean, and elegant and gets the job done astonishingly well. You could also get a manual water cooling unit but that required a lot of maintenance, and some error from your side might even damage your setup so I would recommend an AIO block since it requires no maintenance unless you really want to and are experienced in installing water cooling systems.

Just so you know, this motherboard does not support DDR5 DIMM(s) and for that
purpose only we are opting for the motherboard in the first place since we
don't wanna ad DDR5 rams to this build because as of now in may of 2022, they
cost a lot more than DDR4 rams and doesn't show much difference in
performance.
You might think even if we are choosing DDR4 ram we at least could've selected
a motherboard that supports DDR5 so the answer would be a simple no as DDR5
motherboards don't support DDR4 ram(s) and vice-versa.
Talking about some details, it has got enough PCIe and M.2 gen 4 | 3 and DIMM
slots to save you some space for future upgrades and even comes with a WiFi 6
module. Simply put, this motherboard is overkilling it for this build but it's
totally worth it.

We usually recommend Patriot's Viper Steel as these are cheap yet efficient
memory for your setups. No doubt Intel's processor actually benefits by
increasing memory speed that's why are opting for this 4400 MHz option from
Patriot. You will have to buy 2 of these kits though, as Patriot's memory only
comes in 16 GB kits.
Even though it lacks RGB it doesn't look bad. The Steel in its name
refers to the alluring dark grey of its aluminium heat spreader rather than
its composition. As for the viper, you’ll see it bare its fangs menacingly at
the centre of each DIMM. Overall it gives a rugged impression which in fact
does look cool.
To make full use of its XMP profile, you would've to pair it with a good Z690
motherboard and that is where our MSI Mag Z690 Tomahawk motherboard comes to
the rescue. Overall, patriot has done a great job pushing its RAM to the
limits while also remaining stable.

Both SSD and HDD are useful in video editing, daily life productivity as well
as gaming. SSD is more expensive but much faster and will speed up
transferring of files, video editing and playback while HDDs are slow but
cheap so they are ideal for achieving rendered video projects. In our opinion,
1 TB of SSD is going to be enough for 4k video editing as 1 hour of 4k
resolution video will weigh around 42 GBs so you have plenty of space doing
your work with hours-long 4k files.

The RTX 3060 is the way to go for 4k video editing at a reasonable price.
That's the power of Nvidia CUDA API. There's no way to get higher versions of
the RTX 30 series if you are only going for a maximum of 4k video editing as
RTX 3060 can get the job done very well while also saving you a whole lot of
money.

Operating System
You'll definitely need an Operating System, Keyboard, Mouse and Monitor to use your PC Build. So here are some OS, and Peripherals recommendations for your ₹15,000 Custom Gaming PC Build
Windows 10 Home
Windows is currently the best Operating System for both Work and Gaming. Since Microsoft has stopped the support for Windows 7 it means Windows 7 is officialy dead now. Hence, we'll be opting for a Windows 10 Home Edition for our Custom PC Build. For the best General Compatibility and Gaming experience, Windows 10 Home is your best option.
PC Hardware Terms to Remember
Many people might not get the terms that are used in PC Building stuff like
Frequency, Clock Speed, Cores and Threads. So before jumping into building a
Custom Gaming PC Build. You should first be familiar with all the necessary
terms that are used in PC Hardware
CPU
CPU stands for Central Processing Unit which is the Brain of your computer
where the tasks that you do is processed. These are tiny chips packed with
tons of transistors and are getting faster and smaller each and every year.
A CPU is the most important component that you need to select very carefully
as most of your PC's performance depends upon it.
GPU
The function of both CPU and GPU is almost the same. Where a CPU is a
central processor a GPU is used to perform Graphical processes such as
rendering and all that Graphics stuff. Adding a GPU to your system can
double the performance as your CPU will no longer have to handle the
graphical processes, while the GPU is built specifically for it so it can
perform Graphical processes very well which results in a smoother gameplay
experience and higher Graphics
Integrated Graphics
Many of today's CPUs come with built-in Graphics of their own like AMD's
Vega and Intel's HD Graphics. CPUs with Integrated Graphics can function
well without any External GPU while a CPU without any Integrated Graphics
will not be able to do so (Please Note the CPUs with Integrated Graphics
also use some of your system's memory to do their work well).
PSU
The Power Supply. It's a big transformer with usually one Fan which makes a
lot of noise. It's the distributor of power metered in Wattage to all of
your PC's components including Motherboard, CPU, GPU, Ram etc.
SSD
SSD stands for Solid State Drive and is the latest Technology in PC Storage.
They are faster than HDD (Hard Disk) which have Moving Mechanical parts but
also SSDs cost more than HDDs as they are faster, smaller, and less
energy-consuming since they have no moving parts at all.
HDD
As mentioned above, an HDD is a storage device type that has moving Discs
inside it and the RPM of the movement determines its Read & Write Speed.
HDDs are cheaper than SSDs but are slower than them, bigger than them, and
also produce nice. The chances of an HDD stopping working are high as
anything can go wrong with the moving parts inside it.
PCIe
PCIe short for (peripheral component interconnect express) is a primarily
used interface to connect high-speed components to the motherboard including
Graphics Card, Ram, SSDs, Bluetooth/WiFi Cards etc. PCIe slots comes with
different configurations: x1, x4, x8, x16, x32. The number after "x"
specifies how many lanes the connector has (how much data travel to and from
the PCIe Card). PCIe x1 slot has one lane where data can move at one bit per
cycle, 4 bits per cycle in PCIe x4 and so on.
SATA
SATA Stands for Serial ATA which is a computer bus interface to connect
motherboards to SATA HDDs, SSDs, and Optical Drives. SATA also have its
different types which are as follows:
- SATA II: It is a Second Gen Interface running at 3.0 Gb/s, supports up to 300MB/s bandwidth and maximum cable length of up to 1 meter.
- SATA III: SATA 6 Gb/s is a third-gen SATA Interface running on 6.0Gb/s. It supports up to 600Mb/s of bandwidth and a cable length of up to 1 meter. It's worth noting that SATA III is backwards compatible with SATA II Interface.
- ESATA: It stands for External SATA which uses more strong connectors and increases cable length by up to 2 meters.
- MSATA: Mini SATA is applicable for Netbooks and some other small devices that require smaller SSDs. It's very much similar in appearance to a PCI Express Mini Interface and both are electrically compatible
- SATA Express: SATA Express is a computer bus interface that supports both Serial ATA and PCI Express storage devices, initially standardized in the SATA 3.2 specification.
Cores/Threads
A CPU Core is a CPU's processor. One core means your CPU can handle one task
and a time. Modern-day CPUs can have up to 64 Core. While the threads are
the virtual codes that divide a core into multiple virtual parts. A 4 Cores
and 8 Threads CPU means in your processor, 1 core is sharing 2 Threads
(assuming they are evenly distributed).
RAM
RAM (aka Random Access Memory) is a short-term storage device for your
computer where all the action using information is stored so that it can be
accessed as fast as possible. The more programmes you run on your computer
at a time, the more RAM you'll need.
VRAM
Video Random Access Memory is a dedicated memory type that your Graphics
Card uses to store the information about pixels and other graphical content
appearing on your screen.
DIMM
DIMM (Dual in-line Memory Module) slots are the connectors where your RAM
goes in. One slot can take only one RAM. Your motherboard may have anywhere
from one to eight DIMM Slots.
Optional Things
Note: These will raise the price of your build!
Operating System
You'll definitely need an Operating System, Keyboard, Mouse and Monitor to
use your PC Build. So here are some OS, and Peripherals recommendations

Windows is currently the best Operating System for both Work and Gaming.
Since Microsoft has stopped the support for Windows 7 it means Windows 7
is officialy dead now. Hence, we'll be opting for a Windows 10 Home
Edition for our Custom PC Build. For the best General Compatibility and
Gaming experience, Windows 10 Home is your best option. If you already own
a retail-bough Windows licence on another PC, you should be able to
transfer it. We recommend using a Windows 10 USB Flash Drive to boot up
your system as It allows you to install Windows directly from a Flash
Drive, rather than needing a DVD drive, or you can buy a digital copy of
Windows 10 from amazon
