Solution
Ram = get a DDR4-3200MHz dual channel kit. It'll benefit your platform.

PSU = a reliably built 650W unit that has high efficiency rating since rendering will entails your system runs for long hours. I'm also gauging that this system will be a bread earner, am I right? If so then your return on investments need to be factored and every bit of performance needs to be added/squeezed from it.

You need to list your proposed specs like so:
CPU:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:

On another note, it'd be a good idea to list all the app's/software you're going to tax yourprofessional build.

Where are you located, how much are you willing to shell on the system and what is your preferred site of purchase?
