Hello,
I' dlike to get into some more serious 3d modelling with blender and game design with Unity and Unreal Engine. So I want an upgrade since my current pc
CPU I7 7700K
GPU GTX 960 6GB VRAM
RAM 8GB 2400MHz Hyper X
isn't able to keep up with blender models over 600k polygons or big game scenes in Unity. My total budget is ~2000USD, but I dont want to spend it all.
I've done some research and found the following:
Modelling in blender is single core work. So higher clocks are better.
Rendering, sculpting, rigging, vector painting and lighting are multi core tasks in blender.
In Unity pretty much everything is multi core: lighting and light baking, code compiling and assets ect.
Terrain building is single core in Unity.
At least 16GB RAM is highly recommended in both programs.
Blender stores modells in the GPU's VRAM.
Unity only uses the GPU for viewport FPS
So I came up with this build for the budget of 1400USD on PC partpicker: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/SzabGer/saved/z7B9GX
CPU RYZEN 7 3800X
GPU 2060 SUPER
RAM 16GB 3200MHz
B450 chipset, msi motherboard
I'm keeping my current storage (samsung 250GB sata SSD, 2TB HDD).
I went way bellow budget to get some decent monitors. I want at least 2 or a super ultra wide (32:9). They need to be somewhat color accurate since making games is highly visual work. I'm not looking for 150%sRGB since I have a pretty baller OLED tv that can do that.
Every part is subject to change except for the case. It's just too nice to not use it
I can't wait for some comments and thanks in advance.
