Thank you [MENTION=105611]bssunilreddy[/MENTION] for quick reply. Could you please tell why you chosen Intel Xeon E3 1245 v3 and not i4/i5???

Xeons are more budget friendly i7s with lower price, TDP and performance, better than i5/i3 for graphics designs modelling etc

Get the Xeons ending with 0, you dont need the iGPU

Hi [MENTION=656]deepakg[/MENTION],

For your information, if you are looking for a high performance rig; you really need to add a good GPU for graphics and RAM 16GB (8x2) for speed. If you run 2 RAM sticks, you will be running memory in dual channel which will be a greater increase in performance than running a single stick in single channel.

Just a suggestion, if you have the extra budget, then I'd suggest you to upgrade the RAM with high frequency like 1866Mhz.

I also noticed that you choose only HDD for storage. I'd also suggest you to add the SSD in your build. The SSD mostly used as the OS/boot drive or storage drive. It all depends on your choice and budget. I agree that the SSD is expensive, however, they are worth for every penny.
