Hi there, thinking of going for these specs for my first PC. I've been using a 2012 Sony Vaio for a long time and it's barely hanging on at this point and struggles to run a lot of 3D modelling programs I used to have no issues with after so many updates. Main program I need to run smoothly is Twinmotion which you can find the system requirements for here and Unreal Engine Studio which is near enough the same requirements. My current laptop can run Twinmotion on low settings at 20+ FPS for the current version when the older ones didn't used to make my laptop sweat like this. Unreal Engine however always crashes if I load in a complex model for rendering. Would these specs be adequate to run decently well at the very least and also potentially play some modern games from time to time? (Dragon age inquisition, Battlefront 2 etc.) I don't need it to run spectacularly but anything would be better than how my laptop runs these programs atm, I'm getting work done but could be way more efficient. I already have a decent 1080p monitor and the other bits so I really just need the tower itself now.
My current setup is a AMD Radeon HD 7650/7660M graphics card, 6gb of ram and a 2.5 GHz Intel i5 quad core processor. This setup is barely manageble but just to give a bit of context as to how stuff runs on this so I can get a better idea of how these specs would fare.
