I'm going to be building a PC from scratch centered around gaming and also around the technical specifications for a Black Magic Intensity 3.0 SHUTTLE [not the Thunderbolt one but the 3.0 one in the link]
So in other words it needs to be a USB 3.0 motherboard on an x58 or p55 mobo. The capture device in incredibly pissy about what it will work with!
I need a really good CPU since I do a lot of livestream things and it's CPU intensive for rendering out the gaming footage and shoving it online into twitch.tv . I'd love to overclock it to get even more bang since I really do need a lot of CPU.
I would like the graphics card to be a pretty good card but I doubt it needs to be on par with the CPU since the CPU is the king spec I need.
I would also like a SSD to house windows 7 stuff and at least 1TB HDD [if not 2] to hold all the videos I create.
I need at least 4 USB 2.0 drives ... if not I have an external usb multiplier adapter thing that plugs into a usb drive and gives you 4 more...not super picky.
At least 8 gigs of RAM for video editing on After Effects.
Any chance watercooling for my CPU? Never used watercooling before.
Any cheap DVD drive will work I'm sure.
I do not need a monitor / keyboard/ mouse.
I might be able to bump up the spending limit a few hundred more dollars...but I'd like to see what I can get for 1500.
Because Newegg charges shipping and +tax for CA residence I normally shop at tigerdirect for PC parts. Please take that into account to be able to squeeze the most out of this new PC rig.
