I had previously posted about planning a build, but the advice I received was to wait a few months for Black Friday discounts. Now I'm adjusting how I ask for help to get better guidance. I plan to purchase the AM5 platform for three PCs: one work machine and two budget options. All should share the same platform for easier management. For my needs, I'm considering Intel as the best option. I want a motherboard from a reputable company with strong support and a user-friendly BIOS interface. I'm also seeking a solid motherboard for the work PC. Regarding video cards, I need something capable for 3D modeling, scanning, and light editing. The lower-cost machines are intended for automated trading and home lab testing, so I prefer CPUs with built-in graphics but value higher single-core performance. For the work PC, I think a Nvidia GPU would be ideal, though the price can be steep. Older models like Quadro or newer 5070/5080 seem viable, and I'm considering used 3080 Ti. AMD is now widely adopted for hardware acceleration. My budget for GPUs is roughly $800 to $1500 CAD (about $600 to $1100 USD). Additionally, I'm curious about a good case that fits an H-Frame and supports ATX power supplies. Thanks!
