Felt a bit bored, so decided to make this fun topic. What's your dream specs guys? If you have one, post it here :cc_detective:
Btw, can anyone tell me the best GFX card for NVIDIA and Radeon + compare? :unsure:
-
I already have my dream specs :happy:
-
So awesome that it can run anything without ever having a single problem and everything looks super good and is easy to customize.
-
I mean post them :P
GFX Card:
Processor:
RAM:
(plus the monitors/cases if you want)
and the rest, you know :P

Graphics Card: GeForce GTX 570 732MHZ 1280MB 3.8GHZ GDDR5 PCI-E Dual DVI-I Mini HDMI
CPU: Intel Core i7 2600K Quad Core Unlocked Hyperthreading Processor LGA1155 3.4GHZ Sandy Bridge 8MB
Motherboard: MSI P67A-GD65 (B3) P67 ATX LGA1155 DDR3 2PCI-E16 3PCI-E 2PCI SLI CrossFireX SATA3 USB3 Motherboard
RAM: Mushkin Enhanced Blackline Frostbyte 8GB 2X4GB PC3-12800 DDR3-1600 C9-9-9-24 Dual Channel Memory Kit
Runs Skyrim maxed out at smooth 60 fps (1600x900, it stutters a bit at my native, 1920x1080, resolution, but I honestly don't see the difference in detail), as well as BF3 at Ultra on single player (haven't tried MP yet) :happy:
I honestly wouldn't want anything more at this point.
Haven't done any OC'ing either.

That's my PC :lol:
-
If I had all this money, this would be the build:
i7 3960x (probably would do a beast oc, since this one handles it like a man)
Asus Sabertooh z77
4x GTX690
Corsair Dominator Series, 32GB of those beasts
2x OCZ VTX4 SSD's
A standard Barracuda 1~2TB to store stuff
Corsair H80
Bigwater 720 system
That would be it :wub: :wub: :wub:
Edit: I also would make a case myself
-
I'm not an informatic guy, but if I'd like one that can run ATLEAST saivc 30 fps normally and record on it with high res with no problems. And if it's possible make run SA too.
-
^You can run SA maxed out and record with constant 25fps with a 2005 pc lols

woot woot then I should try installing it nao.

PC what could render good animation in C4D in less than 30 min.
-
Nvidia Quadro 6000
and 32tb SSD
-
I always thought people wished for ATI Radeon more than GTX lol.

Btw, can anyone tell me the best GFX card for NVIDIA and Radeon + compare? :unsure:
Just look at the most expensive card from each manufacturer.
Currently the GeForce 680's main competition is Radeon HD 7970 and the GeForce 690 which is two 680's built into a single card that's 10% larger than the 680 and it has no competition since AMD/ATi are fucking useless at multi-GPU production and that's even before I start to mention the drivers... ugh... just get a nVIDIA card.
Anyway I suppose the rig I'm building these days are my dream specs as I gave no concern to my budget, just the performance I'm looking for and in case you're wondering it ended up costing 7000USD/5500EUR.
I debated whether I should pick a stronger CPU but I don't see myself need that at this point in time plus
with this setup I can OC a bit should I need it too.

the first thing that would cross my mind is 10 265gb ssds insteak of 1 HDD, and SLI 690's ofc..

Daffy got the ultimate till now.

Sorry for asking, but I suppose is that for gaming-only purposes? Looks like a beast though, nice build :)

Guys I'm going to buy a new PC soon. Maybe in a few days - or either during the GITEX TOUR 2012. I need a supreme desktop computer for video editing purposes. I need all the specification that you know and their prices - tell me any price I'll buy it. If you have a full specifications set please say so with the exact price of everything - and tell me the total price of that PC. I also want a good monitor about 15-16 inch monitor - for cinematic aspects as I'll start to practice that and work on them. Please tell me the PC brand names which I should find other than Alienware. I'm buying a Intel i7 processor - but, I also need to know 'WHICH' processor. You know, there are different versions. I've been having weird discussions with people about NVIDIA GTX 680 & 690. I'm preferring a 690. What video memory should I choose? And what do I need to add to my specification to fill its requirements? PtRvY, told me something before which I forgot.
About the motherboard and all of that - I'm having trouble for it. My computer has overheated a couple of times - almost went nuclear lol. So I'll need a good cooler, I suck at them. If anyone knows a good CMOS battery that could go for a pretty long year - it would be appreciated. For RAM's, it might be about 5-8GB or higher and a HDD (C & D) memory. I sometimes get mixed up between disk memory. About the network stuff - I can handle it. Good audio cards would be good since I'm also following up music making. If there's a good specifications - for programming I would be really happy.
I've been having thoughts of creating a workstation (not those huge ones with dual monitors etc). So if you would give me good prices it would be good too.
It's hard to find the GTX 690 in any PC in this country other than Alienware. So I'll have to buy a different part and add it.
The max budget/price is going to be about 8,500 AED - which is about 2,314$
http://www.xe.com/ucc/convert/?Amount=8500&From=AED&To=USD (http://www.xe.com/ucc/convert/?Amount=8500&From=AED&To=USD)
I want the best of the best for this. Please guys.

^ 15-16 inch monitor for an i7 and a GTX680-690 ?
wat.
-
With all the stuff you're gonna be buying you'd better take a 1080p monitor and not some crappy 4:3 quadratic plastic object from the stone age.
-
@SS: Explain please.
@Mugetsu: I'm bad with measurements. I really need something good as you say - do you know any?
-

Sadly I'm not an expert on this topic. I could just say "take the same one I have" and give you a link but I'm sure other people will suggest something that's better for what you'll be doing. :|

Get a samsung synmaster, somewhere between 23-25`, you can get them for really cheap & they're not that bad as long as you know how to color adjust them properly.
-
A'ight found a good monitor and added it to the list. Thanks Determind. :happy:
What about the rest guys?
-
Dell 30" UltraSharp, is. By. Far. The. Best. Monitor. I've. Ever. Seen.
-
As far as the processor goes, it's not that much about the subtype of i7 that you get, since they all utilize the same architecture. Whether you'll get a larger or smaller clock frequency or 4 or 6 cores doesn't really matter that much when all i7's are naturally overclocking themselves when appropriate (I guess); and you can easily overclock them manually. For instance I have a i930 i7, which is currently one of the cheaper ones, but I never registered any kind of problems with it and most of my rendering and regular usage is smooth as it can get.
As for RAM manufacturers I recommend Kingston, and get at least 8GB of RAM, because you're already gonna lose a large portion on the necessities to keep Windows running. Of course, the more you can get, the more resources you got for your editing and previewing can be easier.
One thing I absolutely recommend (it is a thing that I messed up with when I initially built my current rig) is getting at least 40 gigs of SSD. Because if you're slowed down by (much) longer times it takes to read/write from a regular HDD, then it can sometimes be futile to have everything else maxed out.
Anyways, that's it from me. Hope I've been helpful.

A'ight so I got my specs. Posting them later maybe :a-cheer:
I'm going to get a dual monitor, one for normal display - 2nd for Preview Editing. :ninja:
Main Display Monitor: Liyama ProLite E2407HDS-B1 24" (1920x1080 - Full 1080HD)
Preview Display Monitor: LG Flatron L1754SM 14"
Someone help? I'm getting the Case that Daffy's getting. Cooler Master Cosmos II Ultra Tower. I know NUTHINNN, about Duals - so I'd like to know what should I buy if I need to buy anything just in case the Case doesn't support Multi GPU ports as Mugetsu said. :unsure:
