Building a PC

[Kai Hardy]

Hello,
I am looking to build a all around great pretty fast PC some thing I'd like to do with it:
-Run a VM
-Code (Python,Java)
-Dual Boot Linux(Kali,Ubuntu) and Windows
-Possibly edit YouTube videos
-Software Development
-Run fast while on Skype and code at the same time
-Be able to run on dual monitors

My budget would be $600-$900 (just for parts) I already have keyboard and monitors. I know I could probably just buy a good pc that is already built, but where's the fun in that?

Choose between AMD and Intel, then we'll talk more about pc building.

Sounds like you're main requirement will be multitasking, so I would suggest going for an AMD Ryzen 7 based system. Given you're budget is a little limited, you're probably best going for 1st gen. Get a 1700 with a decent cooler and an X370 motherboard and you should be able to overclock it up a notch and get some decent extra performance for free.

If you're not planning on gaming then you don't need to go all out on the GPU, a GTX 1050 4GB will probably suffice. From there I would put in as much RAM (3000Mhz at least) as your budget will allow. 16GB minimum, but 32GB would suit your needs better.
