Hey guys,
I'm building my first custom PC from scratch and I just wanted your opinion!
It's a custom built Work station for 3D modeling, Rendering and game development.
I have a budget of max, £2,000 but if I can save now and upgrade certain parts when needed, I'd rather do that.
My main query is with the CPU, I've heard a lot of conflicting reports about which CPU I need, i7 or Xeron, so I want peoples opinion and if I have overlooked anything.
This would be a dedicated workstation, I have a separate laptop for everyday means.
Thanks!
