Hi, Hardware Gurus of Toms Hardware Forum,
I'm looking for a build configuration suggestion for my workstation on which I highly rely upon for my livelihood.
Here is the configuration of my current system:
So, let me give a brief idea of the possible usage of the new system:
But I have been super satisfied fur my Asus Motherboard which has been recommended to me through this forum, so I would like to stick with Asus Motherboard again as despite so much load it never flinched even once. Super happy.
I am not looking for a overclock or something. Just need a very powerful and reliable build recommendation that will last me for many years with these workloads.
My current system is from 2015 and still growing strong, but as the new applications are getting more resource demanding, I can feel the slowness in the work.
Important Note:
Build Budget: Moderate
Country: India
As you can see I am from India, please do recommend the hardware which I can actually buy here.
I'm looking for a build configuration suggestion for my workstation on which I highly rely upon for my livelihood.
Here is the configuration of my current system:
- Intel i5 4690 CPU
- 12 GB of 1333 MHz RAM
- Zotac NVIDIA GeForce GT 640 2GB Graphics Card
- Asus H97-PRO Motherboard (Recommend by this forum and it has been working instantly well since I bought it. Never had a single issue. Will love to stick with Asus Motherboard for this build as well)
- Huntkey 500W Power Supply
- Samsung EVO 840 500GB SSD as primary disk
So, let me give a brief idea of the possible usage of the new system:
- Intense software development & design
- I use VS Code (which eats quite a lot of CPU & RAM) with multiple instance of VS Code open along with each instance having thousands of lines of code
- Use multiple chromium-based browsers (mostly edge chromium & chorme) with more than 30-40 tabs open, sometimes in each instance
- Use Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop & Premiere Pro (Latest version). Sometimes I have to work while multiple VS Code instance, Multiple browsers & Adobe Illustrator & Photoshop open at the same time.
- I use 3 monitors of 27" each right now, so I must need a graphic card which can support that. Honestly even with 3 monitors I always feel that I have no space left to work, so in future might thing about either adding another screen or increasing the screen sizes.
But I have been super satisfied fur my Asus Motherboard which has been recommended to me through this forum, so I would like to stick with Asus Motherboard again as despite so much load it never flinched even once. Super happy.
