Can you explain?

Things get compressed pretty often by default when exporting to other platforms/websites/formats/etc. Saves on data and 90% of the time is irrelevant

But I imagine they have been doing this even before they got bought by them

They care more about the rendering than the gaming

Thank you for all the input and information.

They dont have a job yet, just finished university.

I used this for comparing the CPUs https://www.cpubenchmark.net/singleCompare.php.

My friend mostly works with unreal engine.

Its their for them to be able to work basically

I was not aware of those issues

Why do you keep the os on a different drive? Also do you dual boot and if so would you have 4 drives?

As for the mother board I dont really have an answer I just went with a recommended one for the CPU. I dont know much about motherboards so I'm sacred to get creative there

I can't believe I missed that on the RAM. Thats crazy. Thanks for the tip

I have WD and dont have any issues.

Yeah I can probably go for a cheaper case, my friend just wanted something with a transparent side panel so this fish tank looking thing looked right hahaha and he approved.

I will admit I am biased towards Intel but I checked the CPU benchmarks of other AMD processors at that price range and also more cores.

My friend wants the PC for 3D rendering and VR stuff, so more cores seemed better in my eyes.

My friend already has the peripherals. For CPU he said he wanted an NVIDIA so that's what I could find without going over 2.1K. But given some other suggestions on places I can save money maybe I can change the GPU.

Also he doesnt care about the looks as he is just going to have it in a not to visible place anyways.

Thanks for the feedback
