Sorry for asking this question that has no doubt been repeated constantly,
but I'm looking for a computer in which I could play games like, Guild Wars 2 and Final Fantasy 14 on.
I will also be using it for 3D modeling and rendering, the program being 3D Studio Max.
My budget is $2000 for everything.
I attempted to put one together on CyberPower's site here for their Black Pearl - http://www.cyberpowerpc.com/system/CyberPower_Black_Pearl/
And now I'm left wondering if it'll work out well?
Like many others before me, I haven't done this before and I'm unsure of what half of this stuff does but,
I once remember a friend telling me that if the power supply and the motherboard aren't compatible then the computer will overheat and die.
or something to that extent.
So I need to be sure.
At least I can say I attempted to do this, though truth be told I really just went and clicked on what looked good all willy-nilly.
I thank you all in advance for all your help on this matter.
