Will I see much of a speed improvement in video editing between by 2012 Mac Mini 2.3 GHz i7 Quad and a Kabby Lake i7 7700 ?
Will I see any big changes in export speed with Quick Cache between the Third gen HD 4000 and 7th Gen HD 630?
I am building a desktop with these specs:
Processor: Intel i7 7700
Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-H270-Gaming 3 or MSI H270 PC MATE or [Gigabyte GA-Z270-HD3
Ram: CORSAIR Vengeance LPX 16GB 3000 MHZ
SSD: Samsung 850 EVO 250 GB
Power Supply: Seasonic Platinum 660 - SS-660XP2
Video Card: Asus R9 280X flashed for Mac
Thanks

I don't know much about Macs but I just built a Kaby Lake rig and its amazingly fast in both the games I play and daily use.

Please change the 7700 to a 7700K... And a Z270 board...
Everything else is fine! -
Note that if you are going to do this, you'll also have to add the cost of a good CPU cooler since the -K chips don't ship with them anymore.
And if you plan on overclocking, I'd double-check your PSU requirements. -

Slightly disappointing that they don't ship with the cooler any more, was nice to fall back on the factory cooler when my old closed loop cooler failed. Oh well. -
Agreed on the cooler... PSU is 660W which is plenty... My friend runs an overclocked 6700K and a GTX1080 with a 650W PSU!

Not many times a single GPU machine would ever need more than 600-700TomJGX likes this. -
Also platinum PSU so it's about as efficient as it ever gets! 660W will be good enough!

Agreed, even in a budget build I try not to cut corners on PSU efficiency. -
The only thing no one should ever do in any desktop build one way or another.
The PSU is the single most important component, so I completely agree. -

Honestly I think there's a lot of people who would sacrifice efficiency if they could get reliability and low price at its expense.
