Great, thanks for the case call out. I'm gonna go with the $104 Cooler Master that still has tempered glass on one side, but mesh net on the front for airflow. I'll look further into the 1080 Ti advice. As far as the cooler, something less hot would be ideal. Are there any RGB CPU coolers worth looking into?

@Igormp, I do have access to AWS Cloud in the case that I need to train larger models at work. For my personal projects, I do not have any in development today. My ML work is not focused on computer vision, so I don't expect to have major constraints by choosing 8GB of memory for now instead of the 11GB in the Ti.

Hi all - First time post & first time PC build. I have been a MacBook user in my personal life for 8 years, and use a PC for development at work. I am building a PC as my existing MacBook cannot support 4 screens, and its performance for machine learning is lackluster relative to what I am looking for.

Budget & location $2600 United States. 2. Aim. I have two requirements: A. PC should be able to support 4 monitors for day trading. B. PC should support Machine learning workload. 3. Monitors. I do have the 4 27-inch monitors, and they have HDMI & DVI ports. ASUS VE278 with 1920×1080 resolution. I would like a recommendation for a 4-arm stand if someone has one. 4. Peripherals: I plan on using 64 bit Windows 10 Pro. Is there any other recommended software to buy on a new PC (e.g. for virus protection?) Already have mouse & keyboard. The biggest cost choices came down to CPU, GPU, and motherboard. While I originally was leaning with the Ryzen 3700X, I had extra budget and decided to go with 3900X since the 3800X seems like a little improvement. CPU for Machine Learning helps with some of the pre-processing of data prior to training, so I do see incremental value here. I decided to go with the Asus TUF GAMING X570-PLUS (WI-FI) ATX AM4 Motherboard as it will pair with my Ryzen 3900X and seems to have good reviews overall. Have had good experience with ASUS before. I have been torn between the 2080 Super vs 2080 Ti. I decided to go with the 2080 Super because for machine learning purposes, I would like to see some return on investment in regards to the work I expect to do on the machine. If I see the return on investment in my Machine Learning work, I may just spend more at a later time & get a second GPU to support my workload. One area that is particularly confusing for me is cases. I do care about the double-tempered glass with RGB light aesthetic, but with so many options and lots of variance in reviews, its hard to understand who delivers quality here. Some of the brands that seem good are Corsair, ThermalTake, and Cooler Master. Any recommendations here? The $240 for the case does seem pricey, but I think it should have good air flow. Welcome any feedback, thank you so much. This is a large investment for me.
