First Build

[adrianpardo]

Hello All,

I just wanted to post my First Build to get some feedback about what I am about to purchase and if there are problems with compatibility or something different that I will run into with the parts I am getting. I will be primarily be using the computer for After Effects, Cinema 4d, and many other graphic design programs because my current computer is getting pretty slow for the work I am doing and wanted to upgrade my computer since it has been around 2-3 years since my last computer.

I have done most of my research on how to install the OS on the system and will be ready as soon as I purchase the parts for assembly. Anyways I would appreciate any help with making the system. I currently have the following parts chosen.

Intel i7 2600K
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... -_-Product

Asus Sabertooth p67
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... -_-Product

8GB 1600Mhz RAM (Does Brand matter when building because any money saved can be put toward better parts)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... -_-Product

SAPPHIRE 100283-3L Radeon HD 5770 1GB
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... -_-Product


And for other components like disc drive I will be refering to recommended Hardware on this post
viewtopic.php?f=22&t=18178&hilit=Build+Sandy+Bridge

I am currently using a Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 and it runs very smoothly with After Effects and I wanted to know whether if anyone here uses the same applications as me and how does after effects/cinema 4d/Adobe Suite run for you with either previous i7 or current sandy bridge i7?

Thank you,

Adrian Pardo
