I want to buy a new pc for my brother. He is learning graphic design and video editing courses.
Therefore, it is involving with all Adobe Suites including Ps, Ai, Id, Audition, Premiere Pro, Ae and such.

I have been offered with these spec:

- Core i7-4790
- Mainboard: MSI Z97-Gaming 7
- RAM : 16GB DDR3
- HDD : 256GB SSD + 2,000GB
- VGA: Intel Graphic HD 4400 upto 1.7GB
- VGA: Nvidia Geforce GTX 980 4GB
- Optical Drive: DvD-RW/CD-RW
- Power: Original 650W
- CASE: Gaming case Sama G2

Is this enough for the tasks?
 
Are you for real? - How much have you been offered it for?

In a nutshell - Yes :) that will be more than capable. I mean honestly, for a video editing course, he will have an amazing pc with that for his course
 
I want to give a present to my brother. While he is learning and will make use of intensive graphic and video softwares, I want to give a PC ample enough and future proof for the tasks.

It is about $1.8K within my 2K budget.
 
That is a beast for video editing. Is that a gift for the next 10 years? Lol.
 
Some great specs, if my budget was 2k and the comp is 1.8k i would for sure throw in some more ram.
 
The specs are great except the PSU.. why not buy a fully modular corsair ax860i ? its about $230 but will definitely can handle that GPU on full load.

I have i7 3770, 8 GBs DDR3 and GTX 750 ti and I can still edit videos fast :)
 
+1 for upping the PSU a bit, but apart from that, that's a monster PC.

Thanks!

I am not well understanding about PC gig. I didn't aware that PSU plays important role with GPU.
I am now added Corsair AX860i PSU and CPU Cooling Fan.
