Hello everyone! Like many on this site, I have been tasked with building a new PC for rendering with a $5,000 budget for my Architectural Firm. It would be used primarily for still renderings using 3DS Max, Rhino, Photoshop etc. They are strongly leaning towards purchasing a tower from Dell because that is what our firm has bought since their beginning and they like the support, but I think I would be able to make the case for another company if anyone had other suggestions, but not for a custom build. That all being said, I have pieced together what I believe would be a powerful machine while staying under $5,000.
What I put together (See attachment for exact build):
-Dual Intel Xeon Processor E5-2630 v3 (8C, 2.4GHz, Turbo, HT, 20M, 85W)
-NVIDIA Quadro M4000 8GB
-32GB (4x8GB) 2133MHz DDR4 RDIMM ECC
-256GB SSD Boot drive for windows and frequently used programs
-1TB HDD for file storage (we have servers so the size is not a large factor)
If anyone has any words of wisdom or suggestions before I pull the trigger, I would really appreciate them!
