Hi everyone,
Again thinking about going to X99 or Z97 or waiting for skylake.
2 machines, would like to use the same components. 1 for gaming (almost exclusively) and other one for full time creativity.
[/COLOR]1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
Heavy Adobe Photoshop usage and rest of the CS6 suite (video editing only occasionally).
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
No budget, just something that makes sense.
3) Which country do you live in? If the U.S, please tell us the state and city if possible.
Belgium
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.
Case, CPU, RAM, PSU, SSD, GPU, Mobo, cooling,
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
Some 13000 rpm harddrives maybe, but got enough storage on our servers. Otherwise nothing.
6) Will you be overclocking?
Custom loop in the Gaming rig.
No OC'ing on the photoshop rig.
7) What is the max resolution of your monitor? What size is it?
Will be moving to Dell 34" Ultrawide. Maybe additional 4K screen (27" Dell).
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
If going X99 asap, if you tell to wait, I'll wait.
Certainly because they will have to be working 5 years without maintenance about 6 days a week 10 hours a day.
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.
Just reliable.
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license? If so, what OS? Is it 32bit or 64bit?
Yes already got multiple Windows 8.1 licenses from our current machines.
Here is what I was thinking of if I would build it now for the editing rig:
1 x Intel® Core i7-4790K, 4,0 GHz (4,4 GHz Turbo Boost) 1150 processor 369,-*
1 x Seasonic G-650, 650 Watt voeding 129,90*
1 x Fractal Design Define R5 Black, behuizing 114,90*
1 x Samsung 850 EVO MZ-75E500B/EU, 500 GB SSD 224,90*
1 x GIGABYTE G1.Sniper B5 (rev. 1.0), socket 1150 moederbord 99,90*
1 x Crucial 16 GB DDR3-1600 Kit, geheugen 134,90*
1 x Cooler Master Hyper212 Evo, Actieve CPU koeler 34,99*
Or X99:
1 x Cooler Master Hyper212 Evo, Actieve CPU koeler 34,99*
1 x EVGA GeForce GTX 750 Ti FTW (02G-P4-3757-KR), grafische kaart 164,90*
1 x Intel® Core i7-5820K 3,3 GHz (3,6 GHz Turbo Boost) 2011-3 processor 419,-*
1 x Seasonic G-650, 650 Watt voeding 129,90*
1 x Fractal Design Define R5 Black, behuizing 114,90*
1 x Samsung 850 EVO MZ-75E500B/EU, 500 GB SSD 224,90*
1 x MSI X99S SLI PLUS, socket 2011-3 moederbord 239,90*
1 x Crucial 16 GB DDR4-2400 Quad-Kit, geheugen 259,-*
Gaming rig will just add EVGA GTX980 (maybe hydrocopper, but most likely with watercooling block)
Doubts on parts:
Seasonic G-series or Corsair RM-series? Corsair is 5 more.
Samsung 850 Evo or Intel 530? Same price.
For Z97 I would need a different mobo, this one would only work for the editing rig (no OC).
