I use Sony XBA-2 which I payed AUD$120 for. Must say after owning them for over a year I've really enjoyed them, audio quality hasn't degraded over time and the general wear and tear only seems to happen around the right angle connector. I reckon these would be a good comparison to go against these Sennheiser's

Thanks for the reply guys, plenty of variation. The renderer that I'm currently using is mental ray, but coming in the near future I pretty sure it's going to switch to Arnold renderer like in industry. As far as I know, I know that mental ray is extremely GPU intensive depending on the type of Poly model you aim for. (Eg. Hard and Soft) @Nineshadow Thanks for the suggestions, I don't need the case or the case fans though. I've already spent $300 worth on the case and case fans that I have now, and I don't want to throw them away since the fans I installed are much better than stock. Though your suggestions seen pretty close to what I may get @Firenetics I don't think I could go with that build. Newegg doesn't ship to Australia I'm pretty sure and the shipping from the US is a joke (around $200 shipping cost), also, is the Ram. I want my new rig to be as stable as the one I have now. So preferably I would like everything to be optimal out the box. @nukturdukk84 your GPU suggestions are way out of budget but thanks. @Barodil thanks for the suggestion. I think the 5820k seems to be the budget sweet spot for me. I think that the 2 cores and 4 threads more than 1150 platform, and only costs a bit more

So to put it simply. I'm currently a college student who studies 3D Art and Animation, I recently scored a job at a 3D printing company that is about to reposition me as a designer and I'm also a PC gamer. Oh yeah I live in AUS. The programs I currently use are Maya 2015, Mudbox, Zbrush, Photoshop, Adobe Premier. So what I'm looking for is a Rig that is capable of rendering at a relatively fast rate, has 16Gb RAM minimum, A CPU with hyper-threading, preferebly running on the 1150, 2011 or the new 2011-3 platform that still doesn't skimp out on performance when it comes to gaming, so I'd rather skip out on Quaddro GPU's because im not prepared to spend AUD$600-800 on poor gaming performance. Aesthetics mean everything guys, so I'd like to stick with the white and blue theme I have now. The rig i have now is okay, but I can really feel the hurt when im rendering out 720P shots in Maya where the CPU maxes out, the RAM gets abused and get nearly 0 ability to multi-task during batch renders. Gaming-wise, the rig is still a 1080P crusher. Any suggestions will be welcomed.

Gotta win the beg of sweq. Congrats on the 1M subs. Loving the ghetto mods.
