Hello everyone,
Let us jump right into things. I finish school in a month, and I wanted to build a new PC that's insane! My current PC specs are:
CPU: i5-3570k
Cooler: Corsair H80i
Mobo: Gigabyte Z77X-UD3H
Memory: 16GB Dominator Platinum
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 770 4GB
The rest doesn't really matter, just a psu and storage.
The reason I want to build a much better PC is because I am an animator/designer. Currently my computer can render and preview videos just fine, but it struggles a lot when it comes to 3D animations. While doing some research on parts, I came across the i7-5820k. I don't know much about the 2011 platform, so I was just wondering how you would go about building a system around it.
I was thinking of going a bit overkill with 64 gigs of ram, NZXT AIO water cooler for now, and one or two GTX 980 Ti's, or whatever new GPU nvidia is hopefully releasing by the time I get to building this system. Also the only reason I'm thinking of getting two GPU's instead of one, is because I'm going with a LG 34UM95-P ultrawide monitor, and I don't think one 980 Ti can run games maxed out at 3440x1440 resolution.
Here is what I have so far http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/user/ShammysPC/saved/shMLrH
I will be keeping the storage from my current build, and I recently bought the case I'll be using, which is the Phanteks P400S. This new build will probably cost me something around $5000 Canadian, so far everything comes up to around $4600 after taxes.
A side note, I came across two other motherboard options. All are from MSI, the first is the X99A Raider, and the second is the X99S SLI Plus. I don't know what the difference between the motherboards is, or if it's even a significant difference.
Anyways, if you would like to put together a different system to show me, please use the Canadian version of PC Part Picker. Here is the link ca.pcpartpicker.com
Thank you in advance!
