Hey all,
I'm looking to get a new PC built and its primary function will be 3d art so lots of blender/zbrush/substance/unreal engine (no doubt there will be some gaming and streaming thrown in too). With that in mind I'm splashing out on the 3080 and 64gb of ram. I'm not too clued up on CPU's/motherboard/cooling so would love some advice on that front. I'm switching over to AMD for the first time off the back of the initial research I've done. I'd looked at the Ryzen 9 but I'd like to keep the price closer to £2500 than £3k!
