Greetings 

 

Ive been asked to build 2 similar PC's or buy macs for media creation at work and honestly I kinda dont know that much about the specs (I know how to build for gaming but never read about adobe products and that stuff) 

 

1. Budget & Location

Well its about $6000 USD for 2 computers budgeted but the cheaper the better

2. Aim

Mostly creating animated videos (infographics), editing pictures and that type of stuff

3. Monitors

I was thinking 27inch or higher but open to suggestions

4. Peripherals

everything is needed 

 

Just want to add if you can suggest programs as well I would really appreciate the help

Do you have a set deadline to have these two computers done by? (End of August, end of This year?)

Yes, it is not only good for gaming, for productivity it is an amazing card too, but a good idea is to wait for VEGA GPUs to be out as well as reviewed, as they could make the difference.
