My first build started it all so many moons ago and now is time for its successor! Not wanting to half-ass it I've saved up a budget of up to and around $2000 AUD. I'm rocking a 1440p X-Star and a second 1080p monitor used for productivity but not gaming. I'll use my computer for gaming, video editing, modest overclocking, audio production, coding, graphic design and even SoftXpand if they release it for win8.1 (I'll need a student copy @ $70 AUD).
I'm getting H440 (case) and 840 EVO 250GB (ssd) for Christmas so don't worry about them. Otherwise, what build would you recommend? I put together an X99 build but didn't feel cost effective. I'm itching to buy it after Christmas (DDR3 or DDR4*) but should I hold off for better priced DDR4 system?
Please use http://au.pcpartpicker.com/ as usual stores for members either don't do business with Australians or charge through the ass for shipping.
Seriously a BIG THANK YOU for anyone who puts together what they would do because this build is big for me and I really want to run it past my peers.
*I know I should be saying X99 ect but it makes more sense in my head
