Hey guys!
Having a real hard time figuring out my new system as I have been out of the loop almost sense the p4 days. ALLOT of new stuff has come out.
I'm trying to design a gaming/workstation rig. Its much more for a workstation than gaming, but I do game occasionally and want something that can handle the new titles that will be coming out. Card also has to have 2 HDMI outs, but I think just about everything has that nowadays.
Priorities for use are,
1. Lots of RAW image editing.
2. Video editing
3. Gaming
I want to overclock as much as I can, but also want to keep a nice small micro form factor so its easy to fit on my desk.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
