Hey, Sorry to modify this template a lil bit, but I couldn't help it because it was really burning in my heart. My main concern/requirement/problem is that I want a PC for an Architecture Use. I am studying architecture and I am always working on Cad, Revit, Sketchup with V-Ray, Photoshop etc. And now starting to use Illustrator, Blender, Rhino and 3DsMax too. So Its like Graphic Design + Modelling + Rendering Machine, along with normal daily computing use and 24/7 downloading kind of thing which we generally use for. Now again if you have proper knowledge on this ( I don't have proper knowledge, as in conformed and sure) then each software works differently, as in Sketchup will use cores in different way as in Revit or 3dsmax or Blender. Even I dont have proper knowledge, but what I am focusing is on difference with No. Of Cores and Speed of Each Core. Because there has to be a proper reason for choosing certain processor. Well leave it in case you don't understand it.
Well and guys, I can wait for a month or two at the max to buy this PC. I can try for Intel 4th gen CPU's or if AMD is bringing out something new. thanks for taking your time and reading all this and here is detailed stuff that you need: -
Well and guys, I can wait for a month or two at the max to buy this PC. I can try for Intel 4th gen CPU's or if AMD is bringing out something new. thanks for taking your time and reading all this and here is detailed stuff that you need: -
- What is your budget?
- 50K but can become higher if I get perfect combination.
- What is your existing hardware configuration (component name - component brand and model)
- I don't have any. Was using laptop Dell Studio 1558.
- Which hardware will you be keeping (component name - component brand and model)
- None
- Which hardware component are you looking to buy (component name). If you have already decided on a configuration then please mention the (component brand and model) as well, this will help us in fine tuning your requirement.
- I am confused between AMD and INTEL. So I want to have two Configurations so that I can choose any one among them
- CPU - Intel i7 or AMD best one
- Motherboard - any compatible motherboard
- GPU - Compatible Graphic Card according to CPU and motherboard
- SSD for one drive where OS and softwares will be installed.
- HDD - for normal use.
- RAM - Being told that the one with heatsinks are good. So Any compatible.
- Liquid Cooling- I dont have any idea yet.
- SMPS- Any compatible.
- Monitor - I have on Dell ST2220L, I am very happy with it So I will buy the same one if possible.
- Keyboard + Mouse - Decent combo. Not a gamer but good quality to use with 3d modelling programs.
- Speakers - Can buy later, but if possible I am very keen music lover, Please suggest something out of the box. A Good and lovely 2.1 is preferred than bad 5.1 of what I have been these days.
- Casing Unit - Rough and tough needed as I would be staying in Hostel and have to shift a lot, plus bad weather conditions of Delhi.
- (please mention the rest in above format)
- Is this going to be your final configuration or you would be adding/upgrading a component in near future. If yes then please mention when and which component
- Final Configuration.
- Where will you buy this hardware? (Online/City/TE Dealer)
- Mumbai
- New Delhi
- Open to online purchase
- Would you consider buying a second hand hardware from the TE market
- No
- What is your intended use for this PC/hardware
- Main use is for Rendering and 3d Modelling.
- Browsing
- Desktop Processing
- Download rig, 24x7 operation
- Watching HD movies
- Do you have any brand preference or dislike? Please name them and the reason for your preference/dislike.
- Main thing is between AMD and Intel. I like AMD but since investing large amount I dont want to take risk, and also because I am not sure about the compatibility of Processors with other parts and Softwares.
- Also Blender will be supporting GPU Rendering which is currently available only in Nvidia Cards, so they are slightly preferred.
- If you will be playing games then which type of games will you be playing?
- My main concern is towards SOFTWARE USE AND FUNCTIONALITY
- Autocad
- Revit
- Sketchup with V-Ray
- Photoshop
- Illustrator
- Blender
- 3dsMax
- Rhino
- And trying out various 3d Modelling and Rendering Softwares.
- I want these to perform at their fullest.
- What is your preferred monitor resolution for gaming and normal usage
- Gaming - 1280x728
- Desktop - 1440x900
- Are you looking to overclock?
- Yes/No. I am not sure if I would be needing this option.
- Which operating system do you intend to use with this configuration?
- Windows 8 or Windows 7 64 bit
- Linux - Ubuntu, Puppy Linux and other Variants.
