Assignment # 1 Computer Purchase Plan
Computer Purchase Plan
My company is a small video editing company that works with a local broadcast station (a PBS affiliate) to create locally-produced television shows for broadcast and for upload to youtube for viewing online. The systems I will design need to support non-linear video editing, graphic design, creation of 2D animated graphics and file flipping. I will be going with the full Adobe CC Creative Suite for each system. These systems will also will be more cost-efficient as they will also do the work more traditional desktop computers do by having the software installed to do word processing, web browsing, planning (calendars), and email. Each system will have Microsoft Office 365 to meet these needs. My current computer is a Dell G3 15 inch screen gaming laptop with 16 GB of ram, one terabyte hard drive, and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 video card with 4 GB of video ram.
I will create the following desktop computer in an ATX tower case with a 500-watt power supply from Newegg Business.

https://www.neweggbusiness.com/product/product.aspx?item=9b-19-117-994&tpk=9b-19-117-994
Reason:
This 9th generation i7 processor from Intel has 8-Cores that can handle the heavy load of non-linear video editing but also can be purchased from Newegg in multiples. There are faster processors on the site but they are limited to only one per customer. Since I need to build five edit systems this was the best choice.

Reason:
The Processor did not come with any kind of cooling system. I went with a liquid cool/fan system because when you have your computer completing complex graphic animation renders it can generate a lot of heat. At times, it would be working on a project for a day or two constantly as it renders the animations and would also endure long days of editing video.

Reason:
This MSI motherboard has the proper socket for the processor and has many of the add ons built into it. MSI is a quality motherboard for gaming computers so it can handle loads of video editing and graphics. It can handle the liquid cooler for the processor. The board has plenty of USB 3 Type-A ports, a USB Type-C port, a gigabit internet connection port, a built-in soundboard for audio, and six SATA ports for hooking up the hard drive storage needed for editing. This motherboard has RAID 1, 5, and 10 so the media drives can have backups. The board also has four memory slots that can take up 128 GB of RAM.

Reason:
Corsair is a quality name brand RAM that comes in pairs of 8 GB sticks for a total of 16 GB of total RAM. I would install four sticks of RAM in pairs to have a total of 32 GB of RAM. Having RAM in pairs helps spread the load of video editing between the four sticks. Adobe recommends having 32 GB of RAM if you going to be editing video in 4k.

Reason:
When working on a non-linear editor you need to have color-accurate displays and the 27 inch Dell monitors have a good reputation for this. These displays had some problems early in their release but now thanks to updates they are wonderfully priced monitors. This three monitor set up lets the editor have two for screen layout and one monitor dedicated to full-screen display.

This is the best complete bundle for anyone wanting to do video production and graphics generation.
Warranty:
With the cost of these systems, it is risky but best to just go with the manufacturers' standard warranties. So 1-year parts and 90 days labor. This is an area where you can save some money even though it means taking a bit of a gamble.

Reason:
This external hard drive adds an extra layer of backup beyond the installed RAID 5 already used the computers internal system. WD is another industry standard when it comes to dependable affordable hard drives.

Summary:
Working with video and doing graphics work is some of the most intensive and expensive work that a computer can do. When building a work station for projects such as these you want to spend more upfront so that your system is not obsolete in three years. The hope is you can get at least four to six years out of the hardware before the production software makes it obsolete.

Reason:
This 9th generation i7 processor from Intel has 8-Cores that can handle the heavy load of non-linear video editing but also can be purchased from Newegg in multiples. There are faster processors on the site but they are limited to only one per customer. Since I need to build five edit systems this was the best choice.

Reason:
The Processor did not come with any kind of cooling system. I went with a liquid cool/fan system because when you have your computer completing complex graphic animation renders it can generate a lot of heat. At times, it would be working on a project for a day or two constantly as it renders the animations and would also endure long days of editing video.

This MSI motherboard has the proper socket for the processor and has many of the add ons built into it. MSI is a quality motherboard for gaming computers so it can handle loads of video editing and graphics. It can handle the liquid cooler for the processor. The board has plenty of USB 3 Type-A ports, a USB Type-C port, a gigabit internet connection port, a built-in soundboard for audio, and six SATA ports for hooking up the hard drive storage needed for editing. This motherboard has RAID 1, 5, and 10 so the media drives can have backups. The board also has four memory slots that can take up 128 GB of RAM.

Reason:
Corsair is a quality name brand RAM that comes in pairs of 8 GB sticks for a total of 16 GB of total RAM. I would install four sticks of RAM in pairs to have a total of 32 GB of RAM. Having RAM in pairs helps spread the load of video editing between the four sticks. Adobe recommends having 32 GB of RAM if you going to be editing video in 4k.

Reason:
When working on a non-linear editor you need to have color-accurate displays and the 27 inch Dell monitors have a good reputation for this. These displays had some problems early in their release but now thanks to updates they are wonderfully priced monitors. This three monitor set up lets the editor have two for screen layout and one monitor dedicated to full-screen display.

Summary:
Working with video and doing graphics work is some of the most intensive and expensive work that a computer can do. When building a work station for projects such as these you want to spend more upfront so that your system is not obsolete in three years. The hope is you can get at least four to six years out of the hardware before the production software makes it obsolete.
