Need help on recommendations for Blender

[ColeDev]

Hello!

I need help on recommendations for Blender.

My build budget is 3000$ CAD.

I am gonna use Blender for 3D modeling and animations. 

I was thinking of a Vega 64 (Non-LC) and a i7-8700k.

I am looking for help on advice on my build, to get the best performance possible within my budget. I do not want any error’s when I work on these 2 things and want respectable rendering times. Additionally, I want it to perform good, without any possible lag.

Thanks!

Overall looks pretty good. If you can make do with 1TB of storage, why not eliminate the hdd altogether and get a 1TB ssd.

Ok... I wanted to save some money, because it is pointless to have faster storage to stuff, I will not use that often, or stuff that don’t need that extra speed (such as Office documents). So thats why,  I went with 500GB of SSD, for faster storage, for stuff that I use often and that need that speed.
