XPS 8930 vs Inspiron G5-5090 Gaming?

Hello. Just looking for some advice before I make my next desktop purchase. I'm mostly going to be doing video editing.

I am comparing the XPS 8930 priced at £1399.01 with the Inspiron G5-5090 Gaming priced at £1339 (this includes the monitor). The technical specification looks the same to me. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

AVOID the G5 like the plague.  It has itty bitty proprietary power supply.

The main power connector is not the standard 24 pin its a 6 pin power supply.

Consider looking for a good deal on a liquid cooled Aurora R8.
