This is my first build from scratch my gaming orientation leans on rpgs, mmos, action-adventure and rts for the most part and less so for fps and racing games.
Approximate Purchase Date: I would like to order the parts up until the end of july and hopefully have it built before september Budget Range: Under $3k subtotal including everything base system, peripherals etc… System Usage from Most to Least Important: Extensive gaming and production/rendering in autodesk and other 3D/CG art software. i will probably be running quite a few applications at the same time including the art applications and/or games with the browser and some extra editing tools and would like for it to run silky smooth in the process Parts Not Required: Not planning on getting a custom liquid cooling system just yet Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg Canada TigerDirect Canada Canada Computers NCIX Country: Canada Parts Preferences: Nvidia, visuals for the most part not a keyboard or audio enthusiast Storage Space: 2TB minimum Overclocking: Likely SLI or Crossfire: Possibly SLI Monitor Resolution: 1920 x 1080 – may go larger. I would like to have games on maxed settings, AA would be nice and what ever gaming technology optimization available Additional Comments: my newegg wishlist Really looking for some of the top and latest support with longevity, durability and silence the rig would be placed in the basement which is usually around 20C, during the humid summer it should be closer to 30C room temp but we almost always AC then. the only thing about the basement i am worried about is if airflow wouldn't be good enough for the rig would a heatsink fan suffice for now? if i ever choose to SLI would liquid cooling be needed then? |
