I've already posted this on a forum on pcpartpicker but no one replyed;

hello everyone tks for clicking on my post. so i have a laptop I've using for 2years now just watching learning video editing by watching tutorials on it and i found out that video editing apps are very demanding specially adobe apps.. my dell latitude 5590 re-brushed i bought for 3000 Moroccan DH (around 300$) ( i5 8th gen / 8gb ram / intel UHD graphics 620) can't run these apps.. so i find myself obligated to build a PC. but i have a low budget so I'm gonna need to buy re-brushed parts. I'm new to this.. I'm asking for your help guys!!

I just wanna build a PC that can run premiere and after effects smoothly for video editing at 1080p I don't edit at 4k so i don't need a super build.

Note: the budget below is just for the PC not the Peripherals too.

  • Budget: 400$ - 600$
  • Location: Morocco
  • Use : video editing (premiere and after effects).
  • Peripherals required (monitor, keyboard/mouse, etc): since it's my first build i need everything the mouse, the keyboard, and the monitor.
  • Operating System required: windows 11 pro.

I want in advance to thank everyone in this forum who give his time in effort to help nobs like me! much respect for you guys!

I think at this budget you have to look at second hand. You're not buying current gen hardware anyway since just a graphics card is $300 and you still need to build.

If you get someone's old AM4 build with an old GPU that can handle your current needs that platform has a lot of upgrade paths. You can always add RAM and upgrade the CPU later if you Lille
