I do lots of gaming and rendering. My current PC is years old and outdated. I need something new and that can handle what I do with it. Some games I play are BF3, BF4, Minecraft, APB Reloaded and CS:GO. I use Photoshop, After Effects and Cinema 4D a lot, doing renders, animations etc. So my question is will this PC do these tasks good? Also were do you guys suggest buying the parts from? My price limit is $4000 not including the 2 monitors Im getting later on. Any help/opinions are appreciated.

This will be able to play games and render with no lag, but what type of stuff will you be playing/rendering? Because if your just rendering little stuff you can save a thousand dollars or more.

Dude I think we all know that PC is capable of pretty much anything. To be honest I don't think there was really any need to post the thread. Newegg is good for getting parts and M0j0 crossfired 780ti's is better than a single Titan by the way.

I play mainly BF4, Arma and DayZ Standalone. For the rendering I do Minecraft animations and Gfx. I also forgot to mention that It needs to be able to record with still good fps.

Crossfired 780ti's won't be needed, A single 780ti will be more then adequate.

Im not good with PC's the one I currently have was $1200 and you could make a better one for $600 and I didnt know that. I always want to be sure im getting the right parts and not wasting money.(Although I am going pretty all out with this)

But the GTX Titan has better rendering process cuz it has some "DNA" of the Nvidia Quadro series. That is also why it costs like $1000

A 780 ti alone is the best GPU in the world(so far at least) which means all you really need is one to handle the gameplay and record at the same time to still have 60+ FPS on ultra. Also you can render without lag with just one 780 ti because rendering uses more ram and
CPU than a GPU.

So would 16gb of ram be enough? Or will I need to buy an extra 16gb?
