Hizo specs na affordable price in ne sentence? Good luck ! For starters enda partpicker.com and assemble virtually ndo ujue a rough estimate na hio ni prices na mbelez so weka shipping cost
Sure thing I actually got a quote from @Thitima
's connect wanajiita XGAMERtechnologies and they even have an online calculator on www.XGAMERtechnologies.com/calc
My specs got me like 235k which is on the higher side comparing with a cumulative cost of buying and shipping all these parts online on Amazon or aliexpress has come to approximately $1600.
Still evaluating my options but napitia hio shop yao Kesho to confirm if they really have these parts since buying online is my last resort
Some assistance for no price. tldr
Those specs to begin with are mismatched, it would have helped to say what you needed the PC for. But you cannot have 32gb RAM but a 2Gb graphics card, a modest (mid range) GPU the NVIDIA 1060 6Gb is $270 your better off using the Integrated graphics on the CPU and then save up and buy a graphics cards later if your PC is not mainly for gaming. Equally no games or applications like After Effects will ever, currently, uses more than 24 Gb of RAM before you hit the point of diminishing returns where the price to performance figures no longer make financial sense to have more RAM. You stated you where in a hurry but consider AMD Ryzen 7 chips they have double the cores and threads but are still cheaper and better in real world performance than i7’s hence great for virtualization and other productivity tasks like video editing. Then you should consider an m.2 ssd 250Gb as a boot drive and the other non-frequent files you can have them on the 2Tb drive.
*m.2 ssd’s are 6 times faster than SATA ssd’s like 16 seconds boot time from pushing the power button to 8 seconds to shut down.
Finally order your parts online on Amazon via Vitumob (not affiliated to them in any way), I used them they were great, you get to know the final amount before you order unlike another similar service that starts with a K and ends with an X; and have your parts after a month delivered to your door step. It’s cheaper and you will have variety as well as be able to use the latest and greatest technology.
PS: Tell me what your PC is for and I will create a theoretical build for you, from both the Intel and AMD side. Before I forget great monitors for the cheap under KES 20,000 Acer R240Hy 23.8 inches and Hp Er(21.5 or 23 inches) search Amazon.com for reviews and features, these are full HD IPS screens suitable for all application; Gaming, Graphic Design e.tc
Thanks so much for the insight the machine is meant for some engineering design works; Solid Mechanics, inventor as well as rendering animated graphics for architectural designs.
Done some research about AMD rayzen 7 and am going to consider it for the next assembly . I actually had a very short time to assemble these specs to be able to meet the requirements for a task at hand and am so pleased for the leads you’ve thrown in.
The machine is is for Engineering design works but I wouldn’t mind knowing how to mine bitcoins since I think this assembly is well capable of pulling it off

Greetings, here is an example of a video editing build, feel free to customize it according to your preferences. Remember at that price one of the key benefits of building your own PC is you can add more parts later on, hence saving a lot of money initially. Here are parts:
AMD Ryzen 7 1700 Processor ( 8 cores/16 threads which are very useful during encoding and rendering, unlike an Intel i7 with 4 cores/8 threads)
ASUS Prime B350-Plus Motherboard
[SIZE=4]Corsair Vengeance LPX 8GB RAM
SanDisk Ultra II 250GB SATA III SSD
EVGA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti SC GAMING, 4GB
EVGA 600 B1, 80+ BRONZE 600W Power Supply
NZXT FN V2 120mm Case fan
Total Price: KES 103,925

PS: You can always upgrade RAM at anytime by adding a an 8GB stick, since you need to be able to scrub through the timeline seamelessy use an SSD, but the trade off is you get speed and lose capacity, hence when the SSD fills up you can add a WD Blue 2 TB SATA 6 Gb/s 7200 RPM HDD as a secondary drive. To save some money buy a used case for about KES 4,000 as a case is bulky hence it will cost you KES 13,500 to ship one from abroad and use the extra money to buy a monitor; just be sure to check for compatibility.
For peripherals I recommend using these affordable Full HD IPS HDMI (1920 x 1080) monitors which are under KES 20,000 Acer R240Hy 23.8 inches and Hp Er as high color accuracy is important for color grading and color correction. In future you could also buy and extra monitor to have a dual set up which will increase your productivity as you can edit on one and use the other one for viewing full screen previews or reading scripts, with a shared mouse of course :).
Finally I would not recommend mining Bitcoins on a small scale and especially in Kenya where electricity prices are really expensive unless it’s for fun as a hobby. But you could buy Bitcoins when they are low and sell them when they are high, a very risky investment!!!. For example last year in June 2016 a single Bitcoin was KES 59,946 and now one is currently (June 2017) KES 302,820 a 405% ROI (Return on Investment in one year). When prices go low I’ll be sure to give a buy notice.
