Recently I was also considering getting a new machine and have been doing a lot of reading and comparisons to determine the need or value in doing an upgrade.
My present system which I put together in 2013 while I was at Microsoft is a Intel I7 3770K 3.5GHZ which can be overclocked. It has 32 GB of DDR3 memory and a 500G SSD and 4 TB data drive and 2 GIG video card
This computer was top line will I built it and honestly I am not having any problems or sluggishness with it. But being a techie I like to play with the latest and greatest. When doing speed tests I didn't see a huge speed gain in getting similar setups today to what I bought in 2013. So I might just get a new monitor.
As I said in one of my posts earlier I am considering the Imac with 5K display. The biggest problem is adding additional monitors to that setup also Apple computers other than Mac Pro you have very limited capability to modify their machines. While investigating I did find a great monitor to consider
The Dell 43 Ultra HD 4K Multi-Client Monitor P4317Q ($1,349.99) is more than just a huge, well-appointed 43-inch Ultra-High-Definition (UHD) desktop monitor. Armed with a vast array of video inputs and an In-Plane Switching (IPS) panel, the P4317Q $899.99 at Dell can simultaneously display content from four different clients in full HD (1080p), or from a single source at a resolution of 3,840 by 2,160. It's expensive, but delivers very sharp UHD imagery and accurate colors, and can do the work of four monitors. It's our latest Editors' Choice for big-screen
