Hi guys,

Basically, without a new computer I'm going to fail my final year of University, so could someone please spec me a system that can run Autodesk Maya 2014, Adobe Master Collection and current high end games e.g. Battlefield 3/4.

The budget doesn't need to include a monitor, keyboard, mouse, OS or speakers.

Thanks

Mark

Okay, over budget but free shipping so Woahh! :)

If you feel you won't benefit from an SSD you can drop it and add the 7970 TFIII... Its upto you..

I've added 16GB of RAM as i know how hungry CAD and image editing program can be with RAM. I hated myself when i was doing a "supposedly" 8 hour render and it took 26 hours due to hitting the 8GB RAM wall! :)

I havn't added an aftermarket cooler as you budget doesn't cover it yet, but id suggest it as a next upgrade. £30 will get you a decent one and will allow you to overclock a bit too. :)
