Hello, I considered reducing my expectations about purchasing a PC. I was looking at the setup: an i3 12100, 12100 RX 3060, 16GB RAM, ADATA MSI A PRO B660M, Corsair CXM 650W, 500GB NVMe SSD, and a 500GB HDD from Seagate. The goal was to see if an integrated GPU could handle the tasks. I thought it would be better if that worked, while saving for a better graphics card like the 3060 Ti. Regarding whether the i5 12400 is sufficient for Blender work—character modeling, rigging, 3D animation, or Maya 3D animation—and whether to upgrade to a 12600 with an integrated GPU, that's what I need to know.

You’d prefer something beyond the current setup. A Quadro K2200 (around $100) could significantly boost performance. However, if you intend to upgrade later, a higher-end GPU would be suitable for a short period.

Understood, I'll proceed with that configuration.

Consider giving it another shot. The i3 shares a lot with the i5 GPU, so simply swap it out and check the performance.

I haven't purchased it. I don't have a PC right now.
