Hi
I am currently a student studying 3d animation, and am in need of a desktop computer. Up until now I've been using a macbook pro (mostly for illustration), but now that I'm doing more 2d and 3d animation, it's really not working out. A desktop pc seems to be the way to go.
I want to build a pc for about $1500-2000. I can stretch to $2500 if I really need to, but am unsure how necessary that would be. Admittedly, I'm not super knowledgable on how much a decent build for my purposes costs. I need a keyboard, mouse, monitor and operating system as well.
Some software I'll be using:
Maya
ZBrush
Toon Boom Harmony
Adobe Creative Suite
I will primarily be using the computer for 3d modeling, animation and rendering, but will also be doing some 2d animation and illustration.
Oh, and I am in the US.
I hope that I covered all of the information needed! Thanks in advance. I'm pretty lost on my own, here. c':
