Hey everybody,
I'm starting a career in video game development, and would like to know the bare minimum I would need in a desktop computer to be able to effectively run and use decent to high-end development software, precisely edit audio, and everything else within that nature of data-intensive applications. I don't want to spend a ludicrous amount of money right now (my range is between $500 and $800, until I can put out enough games to afford better quality parts), but if there are no shortcuts I can make do. I have meager first-hand experience with computer building. I've spent an embarrassingly high number of hours studying and researching the topic, but there are some things that the research just can't teach. If you would be so kind as to even point me in the direction of specific products I would be more than grateful, but some simple insight and tips are invaluable as well.
Some specifics I'll need to know:
-Good CPU clock (no overclocking)
-Robust RAM size
-Optimal temperatures and cooling systems
-Quality GPU clock, core count, and graphical RAM size
-Optimal sound card clock and noise reduction range
-Quality, ultra-sensitive headphones
-Best screen resolution and size
Thanks in advance,
