Good morning gentlemen. I am looking to build a new PC for high end gaming (think something like Destiny or Elder Scrolls on Ultra and then some) while being able to open and work with very large files in Photoshop and premiere. I don't mind if the rig takes a tiny but longer to render if it saves me money though. I usually have the time.
Currently I run a MacBook pro 15" with an i7, 8gb ram and a 512 radeon something or other for work. It works fairly well and I will continue to use that for photoshop as well. I would simply like to use my 46" monitor for CS6 when I am at home. My current PC is old...ES6600, 4gb ram, radeon 5750. It was meant for Crysis 1 lol.
Approximate Purchase Date: First week of July-August
Budget Range: Under $2000 if possible
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Photoshop CS6, High end Gaming, Premiere Pro CS6
Are you buying a monitor: No, currently using a 46" 1080p tv
Do you need to buy OS: Yes
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg.com, frys.com
Location: San Diego, CA
Parts Preferences: Intel based
Overclocking: No
SLI or Crossfire: No
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080, possibly looking to upgrade to higher.
Additional Comments: Quiet PC would be great. I would like a white case. I also am getting my Leap Motion in the next month or two and would like to try and develop for that. Blu-Ray is important as well.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: New adventures in work and gaming require new equipment!
