I want to use this computer mainly for editing movies/videos, music, and mild gaming such as some of the older CoD's, Racing Games, Minecraft stuff like that. I have a $1800 limit, but if i could get a cheaper model and extra software that would be awesome. I just dont know what is enough, or what is too much. If you guys could give me only POSITIVE feedback please, no Apple haters, because i dont want windows or Linux.
Thanks again.

*fixed screen size. 121.5 inches would be freaking expensive.

Having Model 3....8GB of RAM for the video editing will be needed, 4 wont handle it well, along with all the other operating system.
It also has 1TB hard drive, 500Gb will fill up really quickly with video editing.
