Hey Everyone
I am looking to build my first computer. I will be using it for video editing (Premiere Pro and the rest of the Adobe Suite), Auto-cad(mainly Revit), and future animation, 3d modeling work.Most of this will be for school work. I would also like to have it run a few PC games like Halo Wars 2 for windows 10.
Timeline of when I plan to build: I don't NEED to build right now and will probably wait till the middle of Summer to start.
Budget: I can spend up to $350 on a graphics card, but I do not want to go overkill when i could have gotten a $200 gpu and been fine.
Other Components: I will be purchasing a Xeon E3-12xx V5 model and a compatible motherboard. I will be using a 1080p monitor.
My main issue is whether I should go with a GTX 970 or R9 390 or if those will be overkill and should go down the tiers to cheaper alternatives. I also heard the next waves of gpus will be announced soon and maybe I should wait and see what comes out next?
What are yall thoughts and opinions on what I should do?
