Hi guys, I'm looking to build a new computer since I'll be passing my 6-7 year old one down to a family member. I'm currently out of date on whats good on the market and have been reading/watching a ton of videos to get myself up to speed. If you can provide me with any feedback and recommendations, that would be great! I am a professional Video Game Artist that uses 3Ds Max, Photoshop, Zbrush, Substance Painter, and few various game Engines such as Unity and Unreal. Basically a chunk load of rendering. I also do a bit of gaming in my free time and the biggest one I play right now is COD Warzone. I am in the mist of revamping my work station so that means, I'm also looking to get an ultrawide monitor as well. My budget range is $2.5 - 3K CA (without extra peripherals like the monitor).
Here is my current build that I'll be passing on:
Intel Core i7 4770 3.4GHz (4-Core
8 GB RAM
Asus Z87-A Motherboard
GTX 760 2GB
760W Seasonic Platinum PSU
250 SSD
Here is something I put together based on some research on PCpartpicker just to give me an idea:
Intel Core i7-9700 3.6GHz 8-Core
Asus ROG Strix Z390-E Gaming ATX LGA1151
Corsair Vengeance RGB 32 GB RAM
1 TB SSD NVME
RTX 2070 SUPER 8GB
Lian Li Dynamic ATX Full Tower Case
Corsair 750W (80+Golder) PSU
+ CPU cooler and fancy RGB fans.
What do you guys think? Recommendations? Tweaks? Wondering if AMD is worth the switch? I hope this would be a worth while upgrade from my old as I also plan to keep it for a while.
