Hi guys I need help on what to buy for this new workstation Im planning on building. There's a lot of components I don't need such monitors and other periferals, and I got Hardrives a plenty as well. So i just need the all the other elements to build a pc from ground up. My budget would be at maximum 3000 euros, but that's already pushing my wallet a bit too far. Ideally I'd like to spend around 2000. Some things I'd like to have in specific is 24Gigs of Ram, 2 Processors (either Xeon or Opteron, knowing that the more cores the better it should be for the type of stuff I need to do such as fluid simulations using houdini 3dsmax fumefx), and for graphics im planning on getting a GTX680 or GTX690(prolly some custom edition with more ram).
Approximate Purchase Date: the next two months.
Budget Range: 2000ish euros
System Usage from Most to Least Important: CG Rendering and FX simulation workstation as well for 3d modeling.
Parts Not Required:keyboard, monitors, harddrive.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: dunno
Country: portugal
Parts Preferences: by brand or type (e.g.: I would like to use an AMD CPU & Biostar mobo with a 24" LCD and full tower case)
Overclocking: no
SLI or Crossfire: no
Monitor Resolution: i got two planned for this workstation which i already have in fact. one runs at full hd(32inch FullHD tV), while the other one runs at 1600x1200 (cintiq21UX)
