I'd speculate that it'd not be a huge gaming upgrade given that you have the GTX 1070 currently. The CPU is definitely an upgrade but won't see that benefit in most games.

Just my 2 cents! This looks like a great deal if someone's buying first time.

Looks like you also get a free game with the Nvidia 2060. Anthem or Battlefield 5.

Is this a good computer for editing video? What differences do I need to look for between editing and gaming?

I'd wait for AMD Ryzen third gen. I'd rather build my own.

For gaming you want the fastest processor clock speed (over more cores, think 9600k 6-core) and the best graphics card you can squeeze in. So a 9600k/2070 will game better than a 9700k/2060 combo.

Editing is all dependent on software (most consumer software prefers clock speed over core count). Some like high processor clock speed and less prefer more cores.

In all honesty Intel is probably better for most people as high clock speed usually wins.

Regarding editing, it is not necessary that they are mostly dependent on clock speed. Most of the video editing software are multi threaded in nature and can take advantage of more cores.

That's assuming you shop around for everything on slick deals over weeks.

Case: 60$
CPU: 350$
Ram: 150$
Windows: 80$
Motherboard: 120$
SSD: 100$
PSU: 60$
Total: 920$

these are rough ball park numbers, but would typically be a decent deal for equivalent hardware.

Also this doesn't include the cooling system, which could easily add 100-200$ depending on how much you wanted to invest.
