Hellooo out there...
So I have never built a computer before and am in need of a bit of advice... I have family who can help out with the actual building of the machine though, so mostly I just need advice on parts and accessories for the type of machine I need.
I need a desktop computer that can handle 3D and 2D rendering and animation as well as video production and Adobe Photoshop/Autodesk Maya type products. Also, I intend to upgrade it periodically as my skills improve with the above mentioned things. Plus my budget is a bit limited at the moment.
So, budget is around $1100 at the absolute max, and "upgradable" parts would be appreciated (like less RAM and hard drive space, stuff I can eventually add to or easily switch out.)
I have a small case and a mid-tower case laying around which I can gut and replace. Have a tablet as well, and already have a good-sized monitor with an HD socket.
Any advice on parts would be appreciated! A shopping list would be doubly appreciated
Thanks everyone!
