Hi
I am a stop-motion animator and an aspiring film maker. I am looking to build a machine on which I can edit and composite films in 1080p - I will most likely use either of the programs, Hitfilm or Adobe Premiere. I would also like to play some games on it, but I won't mind playing on lower graphical settings.
My budget is around $1000 before taxes. I have configured the following machine with that in mind, but since I have no experience in PC-building I would like to have some more qualified eyes on it before spending my money.
Among many other things, I wonder if the GTX 1050 Ti is overkill and if I should instead use my money on more SSD
I would be very grateful for any help you can offer!
Here are my specs - I have based my build somewhat on this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWFGg9R0m64
