Long story short a friend of mine is looking to build a PC that will be solid and super fast on a very low budget. I told her I would do some research on this and see what I could spec out for her. I would like to focus the bulk of this budget on the Video card since she will be rendering mostly in 3D. I am also sort of concerned with disk space and the like. Now I am not real sure about building such a system as I know they are very different form a gaming PC. Would running her program from a SSD be of any benefit to speed, or would the speed really rely mostly on the GPU. Any advice in this sort of build will be super as I continue my research in the build.
