Less on my area, can only recommend he stocks upto 16 gb RAM and makes sure to get aftermarket cooler to overclock the processor if he is going to do editing.

Is that really necessary? I'd rather have a high end graphics card than 16gb of RAM.

It is for video editing, processing can take a looooong time.

Hell yes it is. HD video requires *dance* loads of memory.

Well then, that's a lot of RAM.

slightly more, much better graphics and case, and room for a second graphics card if he is ever mad enough to get another one.
(although tbh you only need 8GB RAM as well as an i5 2500k)
EDIT: actually the one dabbleh posted was quite good, if not for the underpowered graphics
for the price, and it does not say whether the 20GB SSD was used as a caching drive or not.
NOTE: just to clarify, it IS built by the people you buy it from.

Were those parts belonging to a prebuilt system? I don't believe Mr. Vybez' friend wants to build it and instead wants something prebuilt.

is that a compliment or a sarcastic remark?

Sarcastic, I don't understand how you can compare when building and pre-built are just a tiny bit different, like totally different categories?

.... the one i posted IS prebuilt. they build it for you, sorry for not being clear enough.
