I need a computer for working with ArchiCAD (and other day to day activities). I've selected a list of parts available at a local store:
GIGABYTE Z390 M LGA 1151 DDR4 2xM.2 6xSATA mATX MB
Intel Core i5-9600K, 6 Cores, 3.7-4.6GHz, 9MB, LGA1151, 14nm, BOX
Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus, 500GB, M.2 PCIe x4, 3500/3200 MB/s
CRUCIAL Ballistix 2x16GB 32GB Kit DDR4 3200MT/s CL16 Unbuffered DIMM 288pin White
SAPPHIRE PULSE Radeon™ RX 580 8GB GDDR5, Backplate
BEQUIET! BG034 be quiet! Pure Base 500, black, ATX, M-ATX, mini-ITX case
BE QUIET SYSTEM POWER 9 500W
BE QUIET Pure Rock Slim cooler
What do you think abut such build?
Main main concerns are:
- Cost effective. I don't want to pay for the things I won't be using (like overclock possibility, or a gazilion of PCI ports)
- As fast as possible. That's why I'd like to get m.2 hard drive and not SATA.
- I'm not sure about graphics card as I do no gaming at all. All I need is that ArchiCAD or possibly other CAD programs would run fine. So maybe this card is overkill and it would be better to get a cheaper one and instead get some more RAM (or faster RAM)?
- Ease of installation and future compatibility. I have another hackintosh on Gigabyte-GA-Z77-DS3H which gave me some problems during the initial setup, but since clover appeared it was a breeze updating between minor versions and mostly easy solvable problems during major upgrades.
- What do you think about the processor? I thought about i7, but those are much more expensive. I'm not sure if they are much faster?
