My First PC

[TheGruffaloKing]

run what at 4k

[TheCherryKing]

Below $1000

[TheGruffaloKing]

both the autodesk and gaming

[hconverse02]

To run games at 4k you will need a 1080 or 1080ti, which already costs $500-$700 so if you want to run games at 4k 60 fps, then around $1500 say you get an r7 1700 or r5 1600

[Thinkfreely]

For 4k, your looking at at least a $300 monitor and a 1080ti which will run around $700. So for just those two parts your already $1000 in.

[Cyracus]

with a 4k monitor you can play games at 1080p, then you don't need as fantastic a gpu as a 1080ti, if you want/need to keep costs down

ok i think i can go to 2.5k, he wants me to get the best stuff out there, would this be it

 

[TheGruffaloKing]

@ or reply to someone to mention them

 

2.5k would be great.  Do you need a monitor and peripherals too (monitor and keyboard)?

 

EDIT: Also seeing as how coffee lake reviews are coming out in a few days I'd wait to buy or make a final parts list.

Depends on what you do, but usually it can be done for a budget. If 2.5k is your budget, you need everything including peripheral right?

[TheGruffaloKing]

so i have a logitech mouse, but i do need a monitor and keyboard, maybe even 2 monitors.

And just under 2.5k  

[TheGruffaloKing]

k cool thanks

Just know I'm not a monitor guy so refer to another page or thread to find a good 4k monitor (the one I chose just looks nice)

[TheGruffaloKing]

lol ok i will

[Thinkfreely]

So I have a 4k monitor and a 2k monitor. My 4k is for video editing, and games where I don't care about getting above 60 FPS. I use my 2k (IPS, GSYNC, 165hz) for all my other games. This is very similar to my build. At 4k the CPU IPC stops mattering as much because the processing gets pushed onto the GPU in gaming situations. For your rendering this gives you plenty of cores.

 

Oh and its all RGB.
