$5k, yes.
3) Which country do you live in? If the U.S, please tell us the state and city if possible.
Tampa, FL
4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. The word "Everything" is not a valid answer. Please list out all the parts you'll need.
CPU, Ram 64gb?, Case, HDs (1 ssd for OS, 1 ssd for scratch disk, 1 ssd for rendering, 1 8tb for data storage backup,
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
Brand New Build no reusing of parts
6) Will you be overclocking?
IF it really would make a big difference I would consider it

(3) 27" (1) NEC Multisync PA 271W, (2) 27" LG Flatron 2742
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
within 2 weeks
9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? USB 3.0? SATA 6Gb/s? eSATA? Onboard video (as a backup or main GPU)? UEFI? etc.
Not a clue - USB 3 for sure, Fastest Sata for HDs, As much RAM as possible
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license? If yes, what OS? Is it 32bit or 64bit?
No OS currently.. is Win7 64bit a better way to go over WIN 10 (I heard issues with Adobe products on Win 10...
Thanks everyone. IF spending an extra $500 - $1,000 makes sense I would. It's going to be a workhorse for strictly video and photo editing. ZERO gaming.
I know the Synology 8bay is ~$1,000 without drives and populating it with (8) WD Black 4tb drives is roughly $240 each so another $1900. So the $2900 is NOT in the $5k - $6k budget. Would the Synology 8bay for data storage - (8) WD Black 4tb drives or would RED be better as it's just data storage?
Thanks
