Gaming PC for work :)

Jamama, does it just need to be for gaming or dual purpose work/gaming? If dual purpose, are there any work specific requiements such as CAD/3D modelling, photo manipulation?
 
I am sure you will not sleep till you spec this pc lol

Haha.. You know me too well..

I need a shower now :eek: that one epic spec /thread!
 
Thanks guys for all the builds. I have put them towards my manager and ill let you know what the choose :D
 
Two of the new AMD GPUs would look to be better than 2x780s :)

I'd stick with a 4770K and a high end Z87 board myself (to retain 16x16x PCI-E 3.0). More modern platform.
 
Doom did an epic job there, although announcement of AMD GPU's in a few days, looks like their flagship card might/is a titan killer so maybe hold out for that and see what doom can produce then ;)
