1.? How to start choosing a computer?
When choosing a computer, you must first determine the performance you need. How to judge the performance? Mainly depends on cpu and graphics card. Take intel's cpu i7 13700K as an example, where i7 stands for other sequences, 13 stands for algebra, and 700 stands for performance. In short, the bigger the number, the better the performance. However, it is suggested that the selection of cpu should be limited to the sequences i3, i5, i7 and i9, and nothing else should be selected.
In fact, the choice of graphics card is similar to cpu. Take RTX4060 in NVIDIA as an example. RTX represents that it supports optical tracking, 40 represents that it is a 40 series, and 60 represents its performance in this series. The greater the same number, the stronger the performance.
2.? Determine the budget/select hardware
After determining the budget, you can start to choose the computer that suits you. Next, I recommend several computers that are suitable for entry and not expensive. Because the chassis can be changed due to different personal aesthetics, it is not recommended here, and everyone can determine it according to their own preferences.
This 2000 yuan entry machine is very suitable for freshmen. I don't have a discrete graphics card, but I use a cpu integrated nuclear display. The main consideration is the cost performance of the whole machine and the redundancy that can be upgraded in the future. The price of 1689 will not be too much burden for freshmen who just went to college.
Next, there is a "advanced" computer with a price of 3000 yuan.
In fact, at first glance, it just changed the configuration of cpu and graphics card, but the price almost doubled. The performance of this computer can meet the entry-level three-dimensional modeling function on the premise of ensuring all kinds of graphics software, and it is a configuration that does not need to be replaced from freshman to senior.
Next, I think this is the cheapest computer in my personally acceptable price range. Beyond this price range, the positioning in my mind becomes a personalized choice.
4000 yuan file "super" computer
Unexpectedly, I only replaced the cpu and graphics card as the two most important components in the computer. As long as these two configurations are changed, the improvement of computer performance will be immediate. A computer with this configuration. Four years of study and use in college is definitely enough. According to statistics on Steam, this configuration has exceeded 90% of the computer configurations in the world, so although it is the most expensive of the three gears I recommend, I still think it is the most worth buying.
