So lately I have been looking to buy a cool PC which I would use for gaming , rendering etc and I have $3500 to spend on a nice PC.
Before I came here, I watched a few Youtube videos from the tek syndicate channel on the $3500 Workstation especially, but I really dont need 2 CPU's. Id rather invest in one more powerful CPU and some newer tech other then Sandy Bridge.
I come from Europe so some parts might need to be shipped from the internet which isn't a problem.
Since I know here there is a very diverse amount of experienced gamers and PC knowledge ,I'm looking for recommendations to get the best Price to Performance ratio over my system.
Do you need peripherals or do you already have everything? If you need all peripherals etc. this is an exsample of what you could get for 3.5k$ http://pcpartpicker.com/p/wbGRgs
Features watercooled i7-4790k
Higly overclocking and enthusiast ment motherboard
16 GB of fast ram for editing
256 GB SSD for OS+programs+some games
3TB HDD for mass storage
Dual GTX 780 ti's in SLI
Silent case
4k monitor from ASUS
peripherals with great reviews
If you have any qiestions feel free to ask and I hope I helped :)
290x's tend to outperform 780 ti's at 4k. also from my understanding it is unwise to go with 2 TB or higher HDDs due to significantly higher failure rates. Probably it would be best go with a couple of 1.5 drives.
3 Samsung 840 Pros. Lots of fast storage, for OS and to be used as scratch disks when video editing
3 1TB WD Black drives. More reliable than the 3TB ones.
2 780 TIs. If you are using CUDA. Open CL go for dual 290Xs
Define XL
SeaSonic Gold rated 1050W PSU
With that out of the way let say this. Unless you are gaming at 4k, doing massive amounts of video editing or other productivity work, this build is ridiculous and you could easily get by with something else at a much lower price point.
