Workstation/Gaming Build

[radivanna]

Hi everyone. I'm new to this building pc thing and i'd love to have your advises.

This build is primarily for modeling/rending as i'm currently a student majoring in architecture. Programs i use daily are AutoCAD (2D/3D drawing), Sketchup (3D drawing), 3Ds Max (redering in Vray), Photoshop and Lumion. I'd also like this build to run high-end games smoothly in 1080p 60fps. That's about it. I'm looking forward for your cmt. thx.

My budget for this build is around 2000$, so here it is:

BOARD: MSI X99 SLI Plus

CPU: Intel Core i7-5820k

GPU: Gigabyte GTX 970 G1 Gaming 4GB

RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB 2400MHz (4 x 8GB)

SSD: HyperX 3K 240GB

HDD: 1TB

PSU: Corsair RM 750

CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i

CASE: Aerocool Aero-1000

You could easily run that system off of a 650W PSU, please choose one from tier 1 (or 2 at least) on this list: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/406160-psu-ranking-and-tiers/
