Hey!
Looking to use this new build for layered AE projects and C4D animation, and rendering as a secondary use. I have a budget of 5k.
This is what the PC builder recommended:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X 3.4GHz 16-Core Processor ($1034.99)
CPU Cooler: be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4 ($89.90)
Motherboard: MSI X570 Tomahawk ATX AM4 ($262.13)
GPU: Nvidia RTX 3070 8GB - ZOTAC Gaming Twin Edge ($2194.15)
Memory: 64GB (4 x 16GB) G.Skill Trident Z Neo DDR4-3600 C16 ($364.99)
Storage SSD: Samsung 870 QVO 2TB 2.5" Solid State Drive ($217.89)
Storage PCIe-SSD: Samsung 970 EVO PLUS 2TB M.2 Solid State Drive ($299.99)
Power Supply: EVGA 650 B5, 80 Plus Bronze 650W Power Supply ($72.00)
Case: Phanteks Eclipse P300 ATX Mid Tower Case ($160.17)
Total: $4696.21
I can't find that GPU or RAM anywhere online, and I'm wondering three things:
A.) Can this build (motherboard) accomodate two GPU's? If I were to purchase whatever I can find for now, can I add the recommended one later on?
B.) What should I be looking for in terms of compatibility when searching for other GPUs?
C.) Do you have any recommendations for a GPU on amazon right now that would be decent to get going with?
Thank you so much for any help! I am new at this, never build a PC, and I'm a lifelong mac user.
Best,
Annie
