I need Help building my new pc

[JesseLM]

Hello everyone. I'm new to this forum

So, I have a bad PC. And am looking to buy a proper gaming computer. So, after lots of working and stuff... I live in Spain and I have 1600€ witch is around 2180$. 

I have a good 1080p 23" ASUS monitor. Good headphones and nice keyboard and mouse. 

So, my main concern is the actual Computer in itself. And lets just say I don't mind to spend all of my money on it. I have no idea where to start. I am sure that I'm going to buy it all in parts, so i can get the best ones tailored to what i want. 

The things I had in mind where a GTX 780, 16 GB in ram and a 4k i7 intel core processor.

What i want to do with this pc is not only game as I do lots of modeling in programs like cinema 4d. But i would love to run BF4 on ultra 60fps or so. 

If anyone could give me a link to a video or page/forum or even answer directly the parts I need... I would be very grateful

If anyone wants to contact me directly, just add me on steam: "JesseLovesMeth" or Skype: "jason.palma46" 

Thanks for reading

I think you are on the right lines with your thoughts. I would suggest something along these lines:

 

Cpu - i7 4790K

 

Gpu - GTX 770 would be enough @ 1080P. If you want a bit of future proofing then go for the 780.

 

Ram - 16GB 2400MHz  would be good if you are doing Ram intensive work. No point in saving a few euros on slower ram imo.

 

Cooler - H100i or H105 depending on the case would be a good choice for the cooler.

 

Motherboard - A Gigabyte or Asus Z97 board

 

Case - Personal preference, but I prefer Corsair cases. I would go for a 750D or Air 540 as both will accommodate the H100i and H105. The 760T is also a nice case, although it is a bit more expensive.

 

PSU - If you plan on adding a 2nd card then go for an 850W psu. For a single gpu then i would suggest a 600/650W. Both will give you a bit of headroom.

 

SSD - The Samsung Evo is my SSD of choice. A 256GB would be a good size. You can add a standard mechanical drive for storage.

Wow guys thanks you all so much! this has helped me so much! I forgot to mention, I might go for  a second monitor, as they help a lot for working and all that. I was thinking of the BenQ 24" 1080p monitor.

But if you guys know any better one, be sure to tell me. I understand getting the monitor brings the price up, but i can go over my budget for a 100€ more or less .

Also thank you so much for answering! haha, i have been on other forums and have no one answer me

I'd go for a r9 290 is a complete beast, and should run BF4 on ultra at 60fps. It's way better than the 770

The 290 would be my choice, although it depends on whether the op requires CUDA support for the modeling programs, in which case an nvidia card would be a better choice.

Is a copy of Windows or any peripherals needed? What kind of modeling are you doing?

Which shops are you using?

All I would need would be Windows 8. I have everything else such as a keyboard and mouse. Also, ATM, I am only doing 3d modeling as a hobby, but I potentially would want to be able to work and do things like this professionally. So I want a pc that can run things like this easily.

Also thank you all for giving me recomendations and everything. I do however would like to stick with nvidia as they have always been more reliable in mi personal experience

hes doing modeling work and cuda is usually supported to accelerate the program just saying.

Cinema 4D, the modeling program specifically mentioned in the OP, uses cpu & memory for renders. The gpu is only used for previews.

Can you describe the scale of the projects you are planning to work on?

Where are you shopping?
