It is the best money can buy. Its multi-core processing power is the best solution to edit raw video footage with ease without any slider-stutter. If you need the best-in-the-business and look super-slick at the same time, then this is the build for you.

Looks great and has good ventilation for the cooler also
The flagship AMD Ryzen™ Threadripper™ 2990WX Processor, 32-Core, 64 Threads, 4.2GHz, partnered with the Antec Mercury 240 RGB Cooling allows you to push the boundaries of what is possible with today’s tech without breaking a sweat. This Threadripper PC for Video Editing benefits mostly because of this processor being a powerhouse at multi-threading.
We selected the Asus ROG ZENITH EXTREME ALPHA X399 TR4 EATX Motherboard for this Threadripper PC for Video Editing because it gave us plenty of overclocking flexibilities as well as room for expansion, with 8xDDR4 sockets for more memory if needed.
Speaking of memory, we have researched and found that for most video editing, 64GB DDR4 RAM seems to fits even the largest of projects, so we researched the compatible memory for the Ryzen architecture and selected the Corsair Vengeance LPX memory modules that are certified for Ryzen.
For our graphics, we have opted for an EVGA GeForce RTX 2080 Super, 8GB GDDR6 video memory. You can also add another graphics card to team them up into NVLINK with this system!
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Super gives the PC an advantage for rendering software such as Adobe After Effects
Storage: We have selected a Samsung 970 PRO NVMe M.2 500GB SSD and a 1TB Samsung EVO. One for our O/S, and one for our video editing workspace to ensure there are no bottlenecks with I/O. Once your video is complete, you can then move it to the ‘cold-storage’ 8TB
Powering the Threadripper PC for Video Editing is a Corsair 1200W HX 80 Fully modular PSU with an astonishingly good 10-year manufacturers warranty. We chose this power supply to give you the option to be able to add a second graphics card if you choose now or later.
