PC Repair Update (Sound Editing til June 12th)
Added 2020-05-28 23:32:12 +0000 UTCEdit: All brand new PC parts to be built will arrive on June 12th. Until then, I can actually work on sound for Samus vid and Neko vid from my Surface Pro 4. Although I can't do any rendering from UE4. But at least I can do something during the wait!
Diane took it out.
So it looks like my PC's video card is shorting out randomly and I'll have to buy a brand new one. But it's a custom built GPU card that's specific to pre-built MSI Aegis models. And since it was from 4 years ago, the parts are expensive. At least starting at $600 from what the shop could find.
But if that's so, then I'm just gonna build a new PC that can handle all the Blender/UE4 tasks I'll soon be moving on to.
Not only that, my cousin and I game together on ps4 a lot and if he could buy the pc off me and get that part, then he'd finally have a PC to game with me on!
So I want to thank everyone here a ton for everything and I'm going to be doing research into a new PC that can handle everything I throw at it!

Hope everyone comes out for ya. Still need to buy a new laptop myself. Mostly use my girl's computer, which she needs a new one too.

2020-05-29 14:32:58 +0000 UTCThe funny part about that is, its actually cheaper in many instances to get the RGB parts instead of the non RGB equivalent

2020-05-29 14:31:29 +0000 UTCAh yes, rgb's. I actually have an rgb keyboard and mouse pad but I hate when they stay on at night because I can't sleep. So I went rgb-less. Probably saved some money doing that!

2020-05-29 14:24:19 +0000 UTCThat Diane extracts a heavy toll. Good luck with building your new PC. While I can't offer any advice, I have heard that the more RGB lighting you install, the faster things will be.
2020-05-29 11:44:58 +0000 UTCI'm also throwing something in: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/VfhBp8 Additional information: The Graphics card will block 1 - 2 HDD bays The Memory exceeds the maximum height for heat spreaders, you'll need to place the second fan a bit higher than normal (That's not a problem because everything will still fit in the case)

2020-05-29 10:02:32 +0000 UTCWell I'm sure $3,000 is my max for now. I'm currently discussing things with Sihagen, Strykewind, Slice of Size, etc. But any input is the best since I'm new at this. Here's what's been created so far: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/xt76Zf
