Hi all! Great forum and great community! One of my favourite from the beginning!
I want to have a build adequate to my needs of IT Pro, I would like to have a pc where you can devote to the many activities without undue financial burden. In details, I want a workstation that can handle rendering (modeling and animation), audio / video editing, at least a couple of vm with no problems, development and testing of desktop and mobile sw (which should not be a problem anyway) and virtual devices (e.g. oculus rift), as well as play properly and with the possibility to Hackintosh it.
Of course, not all at the same time
At the time I thought about the core of the machine and I would like opinions and advice on if I do well / doing wrong, good and bad components and what to add essentially.
the basic concept is:
(To buy)
CPU : i7 4790K (overcloked @4,4Ghz)
GPU : Zotac Nvidia GTX970 (4GB)
MOBO : GA Z97X UD3H
RAM : undecised, thinking about KINGSTON HYPER X BLACK (2*16Gb@1600Mhz)
(Already have)
HDDs : 2*SAMSUNG SSD 250GB in RAID1 + 2tb 7200 rpm storage
Case, power supply and cooling system are unknown and I need advice about them, the ideal aim is for silence and energy saving. The aesthetics and the collateral things e.g. mouse and kb do not interest me.
I would also like some advices on whether it's worth (and in the second case, on whether it is possible) to think of a build configuration Dual GPU and CPU.
I am very inclined to dual gpu here since the mobo provides SLI but:
best dual SLI or Crossfire triple (and best triple GPUs? I thought the sapphire radeon hd 7790 dual-x)?
Is it possible to dual i7 4790K? if yes, it is worth it or it is better to move on Xeon at that point (eg 2620 or 2650v2 / v3 but the price inflate A LOT, I've seen)?
The present may be a good build to be held for some time (upgradable), as in the case, one day I'll sell the 4790k and pick a broadwell CPU or a 5960X when will drop in price?
Alternative Rams?
The exposed build would ve a cost of approx 1200 $ here now (including ram) and I'd like to maintain budget among the total cost of 1500 $ but maximum budgt is 1900 $.
Thanks to everybody that is going to read me and twice Thakns to everybody who has the patience to help me! =)
I'll be waitin for the experts ^^ lol
Cya!
