Hello. This is me, again, "the guy who's using a s478 Celeron"
So, I'm here, because I'm building a silent and cool Audio Workstation for my dad. Now he's working with P4 3.2GHz lga775, Asus P5GD2-X, Asus Radeon 512MB *some numbers that I don't remember*, 500W PSU and two Creamware (aka Sonic Core) audio cards: Pulsar and Luna, which uses two PCI slots.
I need your advice, for what CPU to choose: LGA2011 Hexa, LGA1155 3770k, or the new Haswell 4770k; for what GPU to choose: Nvidia or Radeon; for what RAM to choose: what MHz would perform great, and etc.; for what PSU to choose and etc. I didn't found a ASUS LGA2011 motherboard with 2 PCI slots, I'm not even sure, that there are that kind of boards (Sonic Core reccomends ASUS mobos)
I posted this on Gearslutz.com yesterday, but nobody answered yet.
I have some parts that I found, and I think that these would work, but again, I'm asking for your opinion, because you're professionals in here.
CPU:
Intel Core i7-3770k
or
Intel Core i7-4770k
MB:
ASUS P8Z77-V LK
or
ASUS Z87-K
Cooler:
be quiet! Dark Rock 2
or
Noctua NH-U12P-SE2
GPU:
Not sure on this one! What would be better? Need a very silent one.
RAM:
Not sure on this one too.. I saw that Linus Sebastian (LinusTechTips) uses Corsair Dominator as well as Corsair Vengeance, not sure if that's good, or not
PSU:
be quiet! Dark Power Pro 10 550W or 650W
Case:
Fractal Design Define R4 White, non windowed
Storage:
Samsung 840 Pro 128GB
or even a Hybrid drive (SSHD) with other HDDs from that PC that he's using now
ODD:
Pioneer DVR-110D from the PC that he's using now
So, I'll be waiting for your answers.
