    Hi,

    Could really do with some advice,
    I received this spec from PC Specialists today.

    I need the PC to run 3d modelling package sketch up, high res renders in vray, cad, photoshop etc.

    I am not bothered about any bells and whistles, just it preforming well at the tasks is needed for.

    I have no clue about PC building, so would very much appreciate any advice...

    Have a look at this thread as it has a better speced machine for €300 less. (no bluray player but you won't need one)

    Actually missed the monitors so that will bring it to the same price but still a better machine

    Was looking at the recommendations, but that site only sells parts, I would need the PC to come ready to plug and play.
    I have had another look at PC Specialists and someone there recommended this attached spec for my requirements of 3d rendering and high res vray rendering

    Does anybody this/know if this is a good set-up for this?
