Hello everyone, i am trying to be an 3d animator but for that i need a good enough PC and i have a problem choosing the correct parts i need a PC that can handle (Maya, 3DS Max, Cinema 4D,Blender) and probably more but if posable do some other stuff like light games like witcher or skyrim but mainly 3DS Max. I have a budget of 3000 Euro + the Monitor i was thinking to get a Intel 6700k and a GTX 1080 + a Ultrawide monitor so it can be easyer to have multiple applications open at one time so i can view a tutorial and apply it. After a bit of research i got confused as hell from what i understood i need a Quadro video card to take advantage of OpenGL + 10 bit color and also a 10bit color Monitor not those 8+2bit i don't know if the GTX 1080 support 10bit color i read that it dose but only for DirectX 12 not OpenGL witch most 3d software use. And another thin do i need 4 core i7 6700k or i go for 6 core i7 6800k i read that this software don't take advantage of the extra cores but, I DONT KNOW HELP

 

1st. do i need a Quadro card or GTX 1080 is enough and ( dose the 1080 support true 10bit color)

2nd. Do i need a 10 bit Monitor like ASUS PA279Q or ill be fine with Ultrawide DELL U3415W

3rd. Do i need the 6 core i7 6800k or the 4 core 6700k and how much of a difference it makes.

30000 or 3000 euros? I would go for the 6800K, the extra cores will help a LOT in rendering and animation
