Hello!
I want to refresh my PC and i could really use
your high-tech opinions.
So, if you could please spare no more than 5 minutes
of your very precious time and help a brother in distress,
I would be extremely and forever grateful.
Approximate Purchase Date: nov-dec 2012
Budget Range: < 800 eur ...
System Usage from Most to Least Important:
I use my PC mostly for work:
3d rendering (and sometimes animation) (mostly C4D,vray,etc), CAD (mostly Archicad), 2D graphics (photoshop and stuff)
Parts Not Required: :
I don't need a monitor.
I also have an old PC (4 years old) with an Antec Nine Hundred case and a Corsair 450W power supply, both reusable i think.

Preferred Website(s) for Parts:
www.emag.ro, www.intend.ro
Country:
RO
Parts Preferences:
processor:
by far, the most important part o the new build. What do you think is the
best fit?
memory:
I am thinking that i could use the power of 16gb or 32gb of ram.
I don't think that i have the budget for 16 or 32gb of high quality rams, so
I'm thinking that i could get one of the cheapest in a 32gb config. What do
you think about that?
I do need ram power as i usually end up editing xlarge photoshop files or
big 3D scenes with a lot of polygons.
storage:
I am also guessing that a SSD disk drive with more than 60 gb would be of
great use, maybe along a 1TB (or greater) usual hard drive. (PS: or i could
first get a smaller second hard drive...maybe 500gb or so and upgrade later
- this way I'll have more money for other parts.)
video card:
not that important, i think. I am not a hardcore gamer... a low
mid class or something like that will do. (?)
Overclocking:
No
SLI or Crossfire:
probably not relevant for my setup
With black Friday coming up, maybe i could take advantage of the some low prices.
(not really counting on that, but ...who knows ).
Thank you in advance !
