This is why I don't do PC gaming. Got a $350 laptop and I'm happy with it. Happy birthday btw man! :D
Hey man, I built my PC for $400, and it gets me 1080p60fps in basically everything I throw at it, so don't think you have to go this high for it to be good. :)
I'm doing it mainly due to screen real estate. I was going to go 2x1080p monitors but I thought I might as well just go 4k because I can setup the AE workspace to have all the windows open and have a much larger timeline. I'll also be moving into a place that has unlimited FTTP internet so there's always a possibility of me making 4k videos who knows.
Oh yeah, not saying what you did isn't good. It's very logical for the work you are doing, actually. Just telling him that building a PC doesn't start out this expensive. I am jealous though, I'm stuck with an i3 6100 and R9 270x. I want a 1070 and i7 though, because more power is great. :D
If you're gonna just be gaming and even just light editing I'd go with an i5 skylake and whatever graphics card. You can get second hand 980s very cheap these days and they'll handle all games no problem for half the price. Buying new graphics cards and I7s for gaming is just a waste honestly.
For After Effects its a budget build lmao. It was over 1.6 AUD (bout 1.2k US) due to postage but yee. Considering the Monitor was $529 I still think it's budget for 1.1 AUD.
