Looking for suitable workstation

[Media Link Studios]

Hi there!
I have been looking for a suitable workstation withing price range of $1500 keeping in view the smooth performance of the following softwares:
1) HD editing (Premier CS6)
2) 3D rendering (Cinema4D, 3DMax, After Effects cc, Real Flow)

Note: Most importantly the workstation should be able to work in the misty weather.

Are you willing to build it yourself? You will get better performance for your money that way. Do you need a keyboard, mouse, monitor or OS within your budget?
And will you overclock?

[patrichpachich]

you need a FX 8350 and a Quadro K2000($450)

OCing the fx8350 will be enough
just focus your money on the workstation card
because you are on 3D
it needs an appropriate card

Are you willing to build it yourself? You will get better performance for your money that way. Do you need a keyboard, mouse, monitor or OS within your budget?
And will you overclock?

I only want to know the CPU's hardware. No any other accessories.

What? A pre-built PC?

They'll cost you twice as much or get you half the performance eg http://www.ibuypower.com/Store/Gamer-Paladin-F875

Prebuilt PCs are not good enough? Okay, I take your suggestion. Now I am interested in Intel machines and a very very very good graphic card for rendering and video editing. I want to use all $1500 in CPU. What do you suggest me brother?

 

[Ytyoussef]

You mean just $1500 for the tower or the computer itself right? Or really $1500 for the CPU (processor) itself?

$1500 for the CPU itself And can bear the misty weather...

 

[i7Baby]

I think he means for the barebones PC.

Look back up to the top of this thread where Joe and me put forward possible builds

You'd need to go to LGA2011 for that. You can't afford it.
