Budget (including currency): $4000 - for PC only monitors and other peripherals not included in this budget.
Country: United States
Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: This computer will primarily need to be able to run Rhino, Revit, the adobe suite, indesign, lumion, enscape, and 3ds max (might not be using this program not entirely sure yet). I would also love this computer to be able to play video games as well so being able to play most games would be great, but i need it to be able to run my architecture programs to the best ability first.
Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc):
When our college tech guy was recommending PC for school, he said we need a workstation rather than a gaming PC. I dont entirely understand the difference between the two so what im really wondering if its possible to build a pc that could do both very well. Also they talked about differences in GPU and Im curious what the difference between a gaming gpu and a workstation gpu is? or if it would make a big difference if I got a higher end gpu. I want to build a computer but my only worry is if a part fails due to project deadlines if I would have the time to get it fixed so im wondering if a custom PC builder such as origin would be a good choice. If this computer could last me the next 4 years of school for architecture and be able to run well towards the end that would be amazing. So if anyone could give me any recommendations and tips that would be greatly appreciated I really want to get the best machine I can buy and would love to be able to use it to play my games and not just for school right now. I also had a quick question about monitors. I am going to run a dual monitor set up and Im considering the LG 27GL850 27'' UltraGear™ Nano IPS 1ms Gaming Monitor with G-Sync® Compatibility. Is that a good choice? If you have any questions about anything just ask I will respond as quick as possible. Thank you to anyone who helps!
