Hi
Total noob hoping to benefit from the forums vast knowledge/experience.
I've been working on macs for the last 20 years but I'm now looking to switch and build my first PC.
I work mainly in the collectible industry sculpting in ZBrush and rendering in Maya Arnold and Keyshot for product stuff. I'm also interested in getting into unreal engine and would like to get a balance between CPU and GPU rendering
Budget = 3500-4000
No preference between AMD and intel
Custom PC_builder
CPU: Intel Core i9 13900K 3.0GHz 24-Core Processor ($559.99)
Is it worth upgrading to the KS?
CPU Cooler: be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4 ($89.90)
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z690 Aero D ATX LGA1700 ($339.99)
GPU: Nvidia RTX 3080 10GB - EVGA FTW3 ($569.99)
I can't find stock of the RTX 3080 could stretch to a 4080/90 would that work with the build?
Memory: 64GB (2x32GB) G.Skill Trident Z5 DDR5-6000 CL30 ($299.99)
Can't find stock of the suggested memory, alternative?
Storage PCIe-SSD: WD Black SN850X 2TB NVMe M.2 Solid State Drive ($194.51)
SSD - heatsink or standard version? Is it best to have a separate SSD just for the system install?
Power Supply: Corsair RMx Series Platinum RM850x 850W Power Supply ($197.00)
Case: be quiet! Dark Base PRO 900 Black Rev. 2 Full Tower Case ($326.77)
No stock of the Case, would prefer a white case if possible.
Total: $2578.14
Compatibility Note:
- CPU Cooler may require LGA1700 compatibility mounting-kit.
- CPU may require BIOS update on older stock 600-series motherboards.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can give!
