I see a major problem already.

The NZXT cases you have chosen are standard ATX form factor cases that support EATX size motherboards. They only have 7 expansion slots and will only handle the motherboards mentioned in Option 2.

In your Option 1 the EVGA Classified SR-2 (Super Record 2) Motherboard is an HPTX form factor motherboard. EVGA even specifies "a case with 9 or more expansion slots is required, 10 for 4-Way SLI". See the EVGA Forums thread EVGA Classified SR-2 Compatible Chassis.

In your Option 2 both motherboards only have 6 memory slots yet you've specified 3 triple channel kits (i.e. 9 memory modules). You'll only use two of the kits. What are you going to use the extra triple channel kit for, spares in case a module fails?

For CPU cooler I would recommend the Prolimatech Megahalems Rev.B if you're planning on overclocking. It's massive and a considerably better cooler than the two you've listed.

Only one hard disk drive? Now there's a bottle neck if I've ever seen one. I would configure the HDDs as follows: 1 HDD for the Operating System and applications, 1 HDD for swap/temp/scratch files, 1 HDD for source files, and 1 HDD for rendered files. Configured this way you will avoid interfering reads/writes to disks, and maintain a steady rendering pace.

All of the applications you've mentioned are much more dependent on OpenGL. CUDA support in AE is dependent on specific plug-ins using these features. AE itself relies on conventional OpenGL features, not CUDA. I don't see SLI being of any benefit to those applications either.

How huge are your projects.? What is your current workstation component setup.?

 

[karemkarem]

yes i worl in red and arri d21 footage that make some time project size be 90 gb
and our 3d team get me footage exr that is too big because the channel

I didn't have the time to think and read all of the posts above but if you work alot with working with huge video files and encoding, you will need a good raid, that gives you a) almost double the HDD speed performance and b) the security to backup your files.

I recommend an SSD Bootdrive that not only contains your OS but also your most frequently used application like you mentioned before (cienema etc)

And of course a raidsystem for more performance

Adding an big external HDD for backup purposes won't hurt you eather.

What about a Blu-Ray burner instead of the DVD drive specified?

 

[Emperus]

Getting a blu-ray burner right now is pointless with blu-ray disc being both costly and rare.. Getting a blu-ray read only drive is more sensible as of now..

 

[karemkarem]

there no blu ray drive or cd in mu country so i can not use it

 

[karemkarem]

i will get option one
but the last compare
what about
