Finally getting new PC
Arseen:
I'm finally starting to assemble the parts for my computer.
Might take 2 more months to get the mulah.
Some specs I've been thinking are:
- CPU: 64-bit Quadrcore *2 (= 8 cores)
- C-drive: 500GB SSD
- D-drive: 1TB SSD
- E-drive: 4TB HDD
- Memory 8GB DDR3 *4 ( = 32GB total)
- Good mermory card reader
- Optic drive: BR/DVD/CD +/- R/RW
- USB2 *10
- USB3 *5-10
- Video output: HDMI 2.0 *2-4
- OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. (not trusting W8 or W8.1 yet)
Monitor 1: 65" UHD TV (aka 4K or 2160P) , once I find LG one that has HDMI 2.0
Monitor 2: 47" Full HD TV (aka 1080P) if I get mine fixed. If not fixable then some temporary until I get another one like the main monitor.
Monitor 3 (and 4?): Undiceded.
Thoughts?
Suggestions?
Gutling:
Your going to use a dual cpu motherboard, like a server board? Why not use a single 8 core cpu? (Just curious)

How many graphic cards are you aiming at 8) Don't laugh, but I bought the Geforce Titan when it came out last spring just for the heck of it. I figured that money wasn't a problem and I liked their idea with that card, it's kind of a novelty card. I think W8.1 is ok now, have it on the computer and my Nokia 925! SSD + 32gb ram was the biggest gain from my last computer.
Good luck with the rig!

I know next to nuthing really of computer assembling, but thought 2*4 might be better than 1*8?

Don't know, but 2 I guess = 1 for both main screens.
And using the output of the mother board for 3rd screen (and for the 4th if motherboard has 2 video outputs).
