Ok so long story short, i need a new computer. Any answer asap would be greatly appreciated as i was looking to get a computer in a day or 2. I'm in school for computer animation, so i would need to run some memory intensive and graphically intensive programs. I would be a modeler if anyone knows anything bout the field. (If you don;t and want an idea, youtube '3D Modeling Demo Reel')
My budget is flexible to about $100 around $2700 and i have currently made my own setup but if someone could review it for me that would be great. Just to make sure I'm not doing something unnecessary. Will definitely be playing high end video games as well.

(As a side note. When it comes talking about things like good temperatures for hardware and the CPU and GPU scoring and stuff i'm not to knowledgeable but i would love to learn. Sorry if i have lots of questions back.) |
