Hi,

I was planning to buy a new pc, but now i decided to build a desktop. Which chipset should i go for?The tasks i do:

Frequent:

-Gaming

-Rendering(3ds max, blender, sketchup)

-Browsing

-Listening music

Rare

-Editing

Z97

X99, more cores will help with rendering and editing, but it depends how intense your creations are. If it's light 3D work and video editing, Z97 is fine.

Z97+4790K.

3d rendering will be the top priority of this pc. After that, gaming takes place.
