Hello! I am trying to build a desktop (my first build) for gaming and 3D Animation. I just wanted to get some recommendations, tips and help from anyone knowledgeable.
A little more information: I do some light PC gaming and I do Animation for school, I am trying to stay under a budget of a 1000$ I would love to spend way less on a desktop, but at the same time i don't want to put 500-600 in a computer when I could put 800-900 and make it way better. So I am looking for cost effective yet good solid performance.
I have looked around and an Intel processor seemed to be perfect for me like an i5-4670s, 4670k, I looked at A LOT of reviews and think that it fits my needs (but still open to suggestions). I would like 8GB RAM (or more of course), looking at a Gigabyte motherboard not sure which one yet. Currently looking for a graphics card that will render my needs.
So, I sort-of have an outline in my head as to what I want, but would really appreciate any help, any part suggestions or tips. And again I am not trying to be cheap, but I am (of course) trying to save money, prefer not get a cheaper Processor and overclock it, mostly because I don't have any prior experience with it.
Thank you for your help!

). If a motherboard has a PCI-E slot, it can take any modern graphics card. Basically for Blender/Autodesk workstation GPUs are typically the best suited, while not the best bang for your buck.
