APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: as soon as I can figure out what I need
BUDGET RANGE: whatever I need to spend but under 2K preferred
SYSTEM USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Multimedia Photojournalism - Video editing/encoding, multimedia design/3D modeling/rendering, photo editing hundreds of hi-res images quickly, Adobe CS4 Suite, general office/biz usage
PARTS NOT REQUIRED: keyboard, mouse, monitor, speakers, OS (have Windows 7).
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: don't care, reputable suppliers
COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: USA
PARTS PREFERENCES: Probably Intel Core i7 960, WD 1TB 7200 RPM drive, 6GB 1600-DDR3 memory...
OVERCLOCKING: Maybe, but minor if so. I was going to overclock a 920 but decided against it as system stability is a must when working on client projects
SLI OR CROSSFIRE: Probably a single GTX 275 unless anyone suggests differently. Not as familiar with the Radeon cards.
MONITOR RESOLUTION: Multi-monitor encoding HD video
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Mostly not sure of motherboard or case, but open to suggestions on any parts of it. Considering an SSD for the OS and programs but will probably wait until prices drop, do not need blu-ray at this time.
Thanks... !
