Hey folks.
I am in bit of a rush here to post as well as buy and build my next desktop computer.
I am about to board a 12 hour flight so I apologize if this is rushed. My hope is that by the time I land, I can have suggestions for what i need.
In a nutshell, my company has given me a good 'check' to build out a new home PC for work. (awesome right?)
Now, the primary function for this build will be mostly for development type work. That said, I plan to run Windows 10 as the Base OS, but run a Debian VM as my primary 'development' workstation when working.
Secondary function is some casual gaming with my kids (more city building, strategy type games).
With that out of the way, here is what I am looking for.
Good CPU. Does not have to be top of the line, but powerful enough to run Windows 10 as base OS, one Linux Debian VM. inside my Debian VM i do a lot of work with containers, so memory will be much needed.) ...AMD or Intel...i am find.
Memory, 64gb is what I will populate the board with.
Storage. SSD or m2. Does not matter. 1-2tb should be plenty.
I have a GPU, so I am good there. AMD R9 Fury.
PSU is good. 750 Corsair.
I'll keep existing case.
Monitors are good.
That is pretty much it. Normally i would do the research, but since I will be flying for almost 12 hours, then by the time I land, need to order, I will not be able to do so (flying over the Atlantic...so no wifi
)
I know its last minute and unexpected. Apologize for the sense of urgency.
Hoping for some awesome suggestions from the folks here.
Thx folks!
