Thanks in advance!

what are you using this pc for?

 

get a ssd if you can, it will be much faster.

This is going to be a work station for image processing (primarily using the RAM and GPU memory). SSD is kind of out of the budget

For scientific programs, intel is still the go to, due to a very large support and many post (and resources) available as guide (like many program are optimized for intel compiler, or at least faster with that compiler).

looks good then. Id still get a ssd as a hdd will be very slow doing about everything, you can get a 500gb ssd for about the same cost

Thanks for checking. I have to agree that a ssd would really improve the Quality of life, but I'll check first how much data is expected to come out of the data processing first, in any case, upgrades (particularly the ram and ssd) are still possible in the future.
