Check the rig I just priced out in there out. Its $2000 USD and should do the job for you.

Surely I can get a better computer than the one that you said if I’m willing to spend twice as much?

 

[mgf derp]

You could but what else would you need? More ram? Higher capacity ssd? I just meant to use the one I built as more of a foundation/baseline and upgrade the parts you see as "lacking". Just my .02
