(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hey guys, im not that knowledgeable with PCs and i was wondering if you guys can help me out, i have two things i can do right now, i can either build a PC, or buy one and upgrade it, ill list them in order

Build:
things im looking for,
1.i just want a video rendering PC doubling as a gaming pc, but mostly rendering, so a 4gb GPU would be very usefull.
2. Fairly fast processor, Ram isnt an issue with 8-16 thats about it.
3. ~$900-~1100

Build: You must login or register to view this content.
Comments: maybe you could take down the case a little bit and that extra $~20-$40 could make for a better motherboard, or some more ram,

Buy Then Upgrade:
You must login or register to view this content. I was thinking about this, the 32 gb of ram and the processor caught my eye, but for my purpose i would have to give it a GPU since it doesnt have one, that would put me at around $1000 anyway, but leave your comments
Thanks, Omniscience

Couldn't confirm it compatible. But I'm 99% sure it would be.

He's talking about the dedicated memory of the video card. I personally have the EVGA 4GB 770 SC w/ ACX cooling and it does great with Adobe Premiere Pro since you can utilize Cuda, I can guarantee that the 2GB variant would work well.

Don't buy a prebuilt, because u will need to upgrade almost everything just to fit a high end card, also those parts u will need to upgrade such a mobo,case,PSU which would just make it easier to build it from the start
