Hey everyone, I am building a new pc and am on a tight budget ($800). I am trying to figure out where to invest my money most.
I have decided to forgo the ssd so that I can invest the money in other parts.
I currently am thinking of doing this (prices for Japan):
i7 4790k ($350)
z97 sli ready mother board ($130)
600w corsair bronze ($70)
1x8gb ddr3-1600 ($83)
bluray drive ($65)
windows 8.1 ($120)
zalman z3plus case ($45)
I don't game.
I do a lot of photoshopping, video editing, but simple stuff like cutting scenes, audio synching, text, etc.
I'd like to learn to do stabilization and green screen stuff. Stuff I don't think is too intense.
I might also like to learn to 3d effects on Aftereffects and design on solidworks (maybe autocad).
However this would be purely as a hobbyist wanting to learn more about this stuff. I probably won't go into deep, and definitely won't be doing tons of projects. Just a few here and there.
While unlikely, I'd like to be prepared in the case that I start using them a lot and do tons of work in them.
I just want something fast enough, that will leave possiblities open for me in the future should I decide to start doing more intensive stuff.
I'd love to save money and go with a i5 4460 and a h97 motherboard (it would save me about $220) and maybe buy an ssd.
Anyways what are your recommendations?
Should i spend less on the processor and by a gpu? maybe ram? Maybe i don't need any of it? I'm not hardcore like you guys, I'm just an enthusiast who likes to dabble in many fields, enjoys photography, cinematography, and making music on a pc.
Thank you. よろしくお願いします
