Hello,
I'm going to begin my 3D animation studies in a month or so, and I need to build a nice computer that is able to handle 'heavy duty' (while still amateur) projects.
The parts I'll be getting are these:
- XMS2 DDR2 4Gb (2x2Gb) Twin2x4096
- Intel CPU Core 2 Quad Q8400 2.66 GHz Box (775)
- HDD Sata2 500Gb 7200 rpm
- Video PCIE GF9600 GT 1024mb DDR2
- M/B: INTEL DP45DP
What I have in mind is a good, fast and efficient computer, while still trying not to spend much money, for my studies.
But it has to be 'improvable', for when I begin to do payed jobs, and I need more power.
It's important to mention I'll be using Linux, but I dont know if these pieces are compatible with it.
I'll be using a lot of different programs: Maya, ZBrush, RealFlow, Photoshop, Combustion, etc.
Thanks for reading
