Very low budget for gaming + video editing.

How about these?

Core i5-8400 - 799
Gigabyte H310M-S2 - 259
Kingston 8GB DDR4-2666 X1 - 265
Galax GTX 1050 Ti 4GB OC - 749
Seagate 2TB (WD Blue 2TB onwards is 5400rpm) - 245
Thermaltake Litepower 450 - 149
Tecware Nexus TG case - 185
LG 24MK430H24" monitor - 439

RM3090 total (C-Zone prices)

Intel Quick Sync Video has better quality than any graphic card for video transcoding.

Erm... excluding desktop?

Are you planning to edit 4k videos on a lower res monitor? https://www.quora.com/Do-I-really-need-a-4k...n-to-edit-in-4k

For your desktop, should you choose to have one, I would prefer Ryzen 5 2600, B350 motherboard, 16GB DDR4-2666 and GTX1050 for around RM 2400. But adding 3 x 1TB HDD, 550W PSU and a casing will be roughly RM 900. So overall cost around RM 3300-3500

To save cost, you could go with i5-8400 and lower priced B360 motherboard, same GTX 1050 and just 8GB DDR4... that should get you down to RM3000

Alternatively:
Ryzen 2400G + B350 motherboard (RM 1100-1200)
8GB DDR4-2666 + 550W PSU + Casing (RM 670-750)
250GB SSD + 2TB HDD x 3 (RM 950-1050)

Why 3 HDD needed? To store different stuff or bigger space??

I mean rather than 3 x 1 TB (RM 180 x 3 = RM 540), might as well get 2 x 2 TB (RM 245 x 2 = RM 490)

Was actually thinking 1 ssd and 2 x TB for storage purpose.
