Hello everyone,
Its my 1st thread here. I have been looking for a desktop computer mainly for editing videos (HD) and photos in softwares like after effects, premier pro for videos and Photoshop/Lightroom for photos with several plugins. I also do light 3D work too and though i am not much into action/racing gaming in pc (as i already have ps4) though i may play some strategy games there.
I do photo/editing for licensing them through stock sites like gettyimages
I am not into building a pc myself as i belong to a small town and no reliable techie person here, neither i know anything regarding assembling one myself, though recently i have been thinking of getting an already assembled pc from some well known dealer/online site so that i dont get into any hassle but not sure if assembled pc are much reliable than factory made branded comp.
so i mainly need a computer/desktop with at least i7/xenon, 16 gb ram, good fast graphic card, and HD (1920x1080 or more) monitor which in my knowledge required for a smooth video editing workflow.
My Budget may vary from 1,20,000 to probably 1,40,000 INR
i want- a branded desktop and i have shortlisted like-
(1) an HP Workstation
(2) new iMac with 5k resolution monitor but just with i5, and not sure if imac's i5 can handle my work and its worth to spend 1,79,000 INR for this and i also afraid about after sale service repairs if required for imac as i know its quite PITA and no upgrade options, more over i dont know apple services in india is available in every parts of india or not but i really wanted to try imac for the 1st time
(3) I have been looking for Asus tytan ROG series desktop but earlier it was not available in india as i could found out but today i saw it in site theitdepot and interested in it but i have never bought anything from this site, more over when i talked to a person there, they said they use some "few mini" speed post service and if its typical indian speed post service then worrisome as i am sure they cant handle a 15kg machine from Chennai to my state chhattisgarh which is miles away from chennai.
I dont want anything from dell as i have suffered very badly from dell india people
I dont know if template of questionare is useful in my case or not, still-
