Hey Guys,
I'm looking to build a high performance rig that will mainly be used for 3D animation work, but more specifically, game design. I'll be doing music production as well.
I'll mainly be running Unity and Unreal Engine.
My budget is around 2600$ CAD
I basically need everything except a monitor.
I mostly need help choosing the best CPU, Mobo and Graphics Card combo for my budget.
I want to be rendering animation quite quickly and also be able to run VR software and games smoothly.
Essentially I'm looking for the most powerful setup that I can afford. (Which I guess we all are)
Edit: I'm wondering if the jump from Broadwell to Skylake will be significant enough for me to wait for native Skylake support as well? Comments?
I was quite involved in the hackintosh scene a few years ago, but working full time has kept me from keeping up with the newest and best information, so I'm hoping the community will help me out here as they have in the past.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
