Hello,
I am looking for advice and recommendations on parts for a new PC I am planning on building next month. I have a decent budget and I am less concerned with cutting corners and more concerned about getting the best performance out of my system. That being said, I would like to avoid burning money for no reason, so I am trying to avoid the absolute bleeding edge tech that comes with a ridiculous price tag.
This computer will be used primarily for rendering, video editing, CAD, benchmarking, and other resource intensive software. I except to see high demand on the CPU, RAM, and SSD specifically. In regards to the video card, I would like to stick with the Quadro series because it is certified specifically for my software, but I am open to other suggestions here as well.
Approximate Purchase Date: Soon (Next month)
Budget Range: $2,700 max
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Rendering, Drafting (CAD), Video Editing, Benchmarking, Power User
Are you buying a monitor: No
Parts to Upgrade: Building from scratch
Do you need to buy OS: Yes
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg
Location: US
Parts Preferences: Intel / Asus
Overclocking: Probably
SLI or Crossfire: No
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Additional Comments: Looking for the best possible performance without paying through the nose for truly bleeding edge tech.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: Its time.
