Current machine is an iMac 27" Late 2009. He's a graphic designer and Mac user since 1990. The objective is simple: 1) Native support OOB 2) Stability over performance 3) SFF
All prices are in CAD:
- ASUS Prime H310I-PLUS $130
- Intel i5 9400F $210
- Noctua L9i $60
- MSI Radeon RX 560 2G ITX $147 or Sapphire RX 570 4G (used) $120 **
- Kingston A2000 250G $60
- Fractal Design Node 202 $110
- Corsair SFX Modular $450 $120
- Kingston HyperX Red 2x16GB or Corsair Vengeance LPX 2x16GB $170
** Suggestions welcome. Adobe PS, Illustrator and iMovie don't need this kind of GPU prowess but I cannot find a cheaper alternative with DisplayPort...which I would need to pair with Benq PD2700U vs Dell U2719D.
I will add 2 x 1TB SATA SSD later (Kingston or WD) in RAID0.
ETA: Want to start building next weekend. Thank you for your time!
