Hello,
I intend to run a lot of virtual machines on my PC through VirtualBox or VM Ware and each one is used for a specific purpose. For example, Web Development, Mobile Development, Graphics Design etc., and I generally only game in the weekends, but I want to game at a very high resolution (I'm a fan of 1440p) and detail i.e., settings mostly turned down to the max
What I am unsure of is in selecting a CPU that helps me both in gaming and processing equally. After few weeks of reading articles, reviews and looking at benchmarks, I have narrowed down the following components for my build
http://pcpartpicker.com/p/nDVG6h
Please look at the configuration and suggest me:
(i) If the choice of components for the tasks mentioned above is justified
(ii) Are there any better alternatives for a better price for my needs (I am not an AMD/Intel or AMD/Nvidia fanboy and anything would do me till it works for my needs)
(iii) I live in a tropical country and the temperatures are searing during the summer. I need advice on the cooling and air flow of the system and any additional components that I need to add to the build to sustain the hot temperatures. The system would normally run for about 10-12 hours a day
I welcome all suggestions/advices and thank you in advance for helping me out.
