PC that must work with Maya, Adobe and Games
Hey,
It's not just me looking for computer specs or towers that will run Autodesk Maya, Adobe programs and the latest or upcoming games. It's me looking for one that'll run them efficiently. First I believed any tower with the latest chips would be enough, but then I read how ATI graphics cards cause Maya to crash and Nvidia is preferred. People write up about using AMD over Intel, as in an AMD+Nvidia combo. Then comes 8 GB of RAM but that Win XP 32 bit doesn't support that, only a 64 bit version does though I would want Win 7 anyway. Last but not least, I don't know why some people are saying their workstations run Maya smoothly but games poorly. "Purpose-built" "Purpose-built." what's the best computer for maya? - The Gnomon Workshop Forums Sorry if you have to log in to see that. As a visual development artist I intend to use Maya in order to model and render characters that I design. I would also apply textures I designed or painted myself to the model, whether it be for an in-game design or a cinematics design. I also use Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator for drawing/painting/designing, and sometimes importing things to Adobe Flash in order to program and animate. Gaming-wise I want to run SCII and D3 ever so smoothly, but running the most demanding game would probably cover that. Can you talk about everything from combos to even the power supply and wattage? Jam it back in, in the dark.

Why does the PSU have to be 850W? I had an 800W PSU and it fried. My PC would turn on and off and restart randomly until the PSU wouldn't work anymore. Flesh mentioned lack of amperes on the voltage rails. Am I supposed to replace a plug? Is there a problem with a less powerful PSU?
There's nowhere I can't reach.
