Can someone help me build a gaming PC within an $800-$1,000 price point?
Thanks for the A2A!One of the leading resources for helping you pick and choose your computer parts is Logical Increments: Logical Increments, the PC Builder's FriendPrices are always regional, your $800 computer might be different from my $800 computer depending on your local market, available deals and second-hand market. In my experience the second-hand market is excellent for getting deals on graphic cards, while stuff like PSU is better to always buy new. I won’t bother attempting to assemble a part list here as the above link handles that better than I ever could.I also recommend to assemble the computer yourself. This way you save a lot of money and/or can get a more powerful machine at the same price point. Pre-assembled machines are always in the ballpark of 20–50% more expensive than self-built. At worst they’re horribly designed and misleading, maybe advertising an Intel i7 CPU but paired with a trash-tier GPU while claiming to handle 4K gaming.Remember that designing, waiting for the parts to arrive and building the computer is half the fun, there is something magical about breathing life into a glorious gaming rig.Good luck!
Are gaming computers good for 3D modelling?
Pretty much.3D Modelling apps need a fast CPU and a fast GPU. - and that is really what a good quality gaming rig will need.Graphics card manufacturers sell special (expensive) GPUs for professional applications, but for many uses the benefits are non existent.However…The hardcore 3d artists I know also do some rendering on their machines. If that’s a requirement then the spec changes a bit.For apps which do CPU-based rendering, it’s a good idea to have lots of cores and lots of RAM. It’s not unusual for a 3D artist workstation to have 12 cores and 64GB RAM.It would be unusual to build a gaming rig with that specification.
What GCSE's are needed to become a Video Games Designer?
Nowadyas there are many different types of people involved in game design, so you need to think about the areas which most specifically interest you. The major areas are: - Art / graphic design. This will typically require skills in computer art, animation and the like. - Sound design. This basically requires music skills. - Software design. This requires computer software skills. Most jobs in the gaming industry will require a degree in a relevant area, so... - Something like an art/graphic design degree for the artwork (and *lots* of evidence of your ability to do the right kind of artwork). Most GCSEs will get you here provided you have an A level in an art-related subject. - Demonstrable creativity in electronic music composition for the sound side - this probably means a music degree, although this is an area where a degree may not be essential if you can demonstrate how good you are. You probably need a minimum of a mucis GCSE and 'A' level to be taken seriously here. - Computer science degree or similar for the programming roles. This means you'll need to take at least Maths and Physics at GCSE level, with Maths or (probably and) Physics at A level.
Best laptop for designing (tshirt)?
well, i can't give you exact name of good PC models, but i can help you with the search, you should, search for a quick and fast PC, with an HD Screen, and if you are going to use a electronic drawing board, you should buy the set together, or if you already have one you should by a PC adaptable to it. But if you are going to use graphic design programs, like photoshop i advise you to buy a Mac. Did i help?
I bought a pc game which is 'imagine fashion designer' but i even couldn't start the game!!?
i did install followed by installation well then i tried start the game, but it didn't work and one message appeared on my screen that ( vidio player error: [DxVideoManager] the video input filter could not be created : invalid file, video ID or url address generated by : AlretForFebug) what's wrong?? has somebody ever had this kind of problem before?

I want to design a PC within 20,000 INR excluding GPU. What are the vital components shall I purchase and at what price?
From your budget this is the best combination i can suggest provided you get a gpu seperately.Cpu - ryzen 3 1300x -7000Motherboard - asrock A320M HDV - 4000Ram - 4gb ddr4 Gskill f4 - 3000Case- anything -2000Powersupply - corsair cx450 -3600Make sure the case has adequate airflow and atleast an intake or exhaust fan.If you don't need an external gpu, you could go for a ryzen 3 2200g -8000 and a B450 motherboard(gigabyte B450ds3) -7000
Are gaming PCs good for music production?
Absolutely! Everything that a great gaming PC consists of will be useful for a great Music production PC, except for the graphic card. Yup, you do not require a heavy duty graphic card for your music production, even if you make music for videos!A word of advice though, if you can afford go for an i7 rather than an i5! Unlike a gaming rig, which relies on the graphic card for all the juice, a music production relies on the cpu for all its juice! All the sample libraries, plugins and vst instruments rely on the cpu for smooth functioning! So get the best cpu you can afford. A gaming PC will make do with an i5 and an awesome Graphic Card, Music production will benefit more with an awesome CPU!Also make sure you have a separate hard drive(minimum 7200 rpm) for your OS, one for all your projects and one external drive for your sample libraries, loops, instruments, etc. It's not an absolute requirement, but having separate hard drives will definitely help in system performance. A slow hard drive will bogg down performance no matter how fast your processor is.Get 2 identical Ram sticks of your choice. The new Skylake processors support upto 2400 mhz of ram speed at stock speeds. So basically get the fastest ram that you can afford.Overclocking : A lot of Gaming rigs are overclocked! It's a privilege for PC owners. Get a k version of Intel processor, if you want to overclock. Though overclocking is not an absolute necessity, so it's all up to choice. Goodluck!
What computers are good for game design?
I agree with the other two posts. Edit your question and include what software you'll be using to design the games. I'll come back and check a couple of times and when you've posted that information I'll help you pick out a computer. You'll get more bang for your buck if you put the computer together yourself, by the way. Added: I can think of 2 good websites for customizing powerful computers off the top of my head: http://www.cyberpowerpc.com/ http://www.ibuypower.com/ Both of these sites will let you pick out all of the following: Quadro cards are technically what you'll want for Maya and adobe CS4 or CS5 programs. However, they are not strong gaming cards and you can easily use GTX400 or 500 series in place of Quadro. My workstation has GTX470 and it works fine on Maya and 3ds Max. Photoshop, Maya, and 3ds Max rendering (unless you use a GPU accelerated rendered that doesn't have all the same effects as Mental Ray) are processor dependent so don't skimp there. The new LGA 1155 processors do very well on benchmarks for that stuff, and the LGA 1366 i7s do pretty good too. For AMD I would get a 6 core phenom II. You'll need 4Gb RAM, and I would recommend 8Gb (4x2Gb). For 1366 (X58) get 6 or 12Gb. I would recommend 2 drives in RAID 0 instead of one big drive, and I would really recommend 3 or more drives in RAID 5. Having a solid state drive large enough to handle your operating system and your game design software is a costly but beneficial idea too. I know you don't want to build your own but I promise it's not that difficult. Plus you'll really benefit from the experience and be better able to upgrade the PC in the future and it will save you some money (or allow you to get better components for the same price). $2000 should allow you to get a pretty good system, either way.
