Buying a new computer...

#1

Hey Guys,

Finally, after years of use I am planning on replacing my working laptop by a workstation PC. I just started working with 3D Animations (Autodesk Maya) and as soon as the meshes get bigger, my computer starts to lag terribly.
I want to switch back to a workstation and I have a budget of around 1000€ (1350$) for the hardware. I mainly use the computer for graphic software like Maya, Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere, AfterEffects and if I find the time from time to time I also like to play computer games.

I am just terrible at all this hardware stuff - so I am asking your, would you help me out with some recommendations?

Operating System: Windows

Best,
Andrags

hey,

you can take a look at my thread. it’s called "pc build help please :slight_smile: " and I asked almost the same question as you with almost the same budget. I’m also a hardware newbie and maybe my thread helps you a little bit. :slight_smile: And by the way…I’m german too :slight_smile:

Oh hey :smiley: Nice to meet you and thanks for the advice. Did you already bought some of the stuff?
