Hi guys,
I have already posted here before and had my query successfully resolved. Once again, I'd like to summon your brainpower and request that you provide me a sip from your brewery of tech wisdom. Okay, I admit that's a bit cheesy and OTT, but you get the message: You guys rock!
On to the matter at hand. I am a noob builder wanting a gaming spec PC, but with multi-tasking capabilities too. I'd like to prioritise it in the following order:
1. Gaming
2. Multimedia theater
3. CAD rendering
4. Video editing
5 etc.
I want you to wield your magic and devise a spec that does all of the above coolly, calmly and comfortably. I'd like all this and more at a grand price of £200($326)
I've tried myself to make a choice, but I'm stuck at the first hurdle. Which combo of chipset and CPU should I proceed with? I'm enticed by the current flavour of Intel cache sizes, but then again that aspect might not make any difference in my budget-range. Scalability, however, is key. I wish to upgrade in the future without making wholesale changes. And that is where your knowledge base of the upcoming market comes in. Will AMD overtake Intel? If so, I'd love to opt for their cost-effective processors.
The big question is: What is the best motherboard that can allow an affordable, yet efficient current option for now, and an easy upgrade in the future, i.e., a new CPU, hard drive and RAM?
I prefer AMD, but markets favour Intel. Which graphics card, and what CPU will it best work with? So many questions, so few answers. Please help.
Kind Regards
Levity.
