Just built an editing station with 5820k, 32gb ram, ssd's, and the gtx 970ssc.
This does great with just about anything 1080p but sucks at 4k. Even in just playing 4k back in the NLE (premiere, after effects), it sucks.
Start adding effects, color, etc, just a time waster.
I am building a new one from the ground up with a limit of 3000$.
If I've done my math correctly I think I can get a 5820k, 64gb ram, and a titan X, along with 1tbssd and another 500ssd.
I was curious though what you guys would build for Adobe CC 2015 for 3000$?
I game occasionally but this new system is meant primarily for work, 4k video editing, animation, sound design. I don't use 3d rending applications much like cinema 4d.
To be honest I don't understand how to read the specs for these E5's and Xeons that I keep seeing in workstations, and the quadros just don't make sense to me. That is from a lack of technical understanding not because I just "don't like them"
But I would like to know what you guys would put together for a 4k workstation. My emphasis in film is editing, and color correction/grading. I do work on effects, and animation for intros and fancy transitions, but thats about it.
TLDR, I have 3 grand, need a new rig that will allow me to work with 4k in adobe premiere and after effects with ease.
Thanks for your help!
