Buying new computer need advice. :)

I am buying a new computer so and need advice on is best setup for please help.

Best for faster rendering and faster speed when modeling stuff.

what’s your budget and what software do you use? What rendering engine is your preference and what other engines would you want to try?

I haven’t been doing it long I am still learning I use to use blender but my computer died and haven’t done it in a long time.

they say start with the best mother board you can get.
I wish I would have gotten 2x8 gigs of ram and not 4x4 because I could have just gotten more ram now I need to remove some to get bigger.

Hi, as strat mention, what is your budget?
300 or 3000 $

Cheers, mib

Just don’t buy Mac))

I am not sure yet on budget what I need to know is how much ram and what kind of video card would make blender run the best so when my models get large in file size it will not lag?
PS: I hate Mac’s. :slight_smile:

that’s hard to say, i would recommend 8gb of ram to work smoothly with 64bit, then i would recommend a 3gb or a 4gb card or more, but if you want more than 4gb, try the 390 8gb, it’s fast as a gtx 970 but with more VRAM

Does 390 has similar GPU compute speed as 970 ?
