Work Computer Build

Post by TJ Brew » Wed Sep 28, 2016 12:10 am

Hey Folks!

Been a while since I have been on the forum. Work has been getting in the way of appreciating all things beer.

I am working on a new computer build to run some 3D CAD simulations (Solidworks Premium, Flow, and Abaqus). I have not built a computer since I was in middle school, and turns out, a lot has changed. Was hoping for some feedback on what I have, and perhaps a few suggestions.

Looking for some input on a new computer I am building:

Intel Core I7-5820K 3.30GHZ (3.6GHZ Turbo Mode) Six Core 15MB Hyperthreading LGA2011-V3 Processor
Crucial Ballistix Sport 32GB Kit (8GBX4) DDR4 2400 MT/S(PC4-19200) CL16 DR X8 Unbuffered DIMM 288PIN
