I've had some major issues with my computer beginning in May - suddenly blue screens and freezing telling me that obviously something wasn't willing to work correctly anymore. So I exchanged almost all of the hardware, mainboard, harddrive discs, RAM modules, then Windows 7 with all it's drivers and countless updates, but nothing helped, still blue screens. The last thing was the graphics card - thankfully I had an old one still working good, and that it was obviously, now the machine is stable again, Windows 7 and all hardware components work. I re-installed all my programs and little helpers and it took so much time but I could continue working on my current projects.
But my decision (and the money) was there to buy me a new machine with up to date hard and software. I was glad to have a back up working machine in any case the setup of the new machine would be an odyssee as with the old one. I bought all components and built it together alone, only with the help of one of my dance collegues. It took half a day to have the new machine complete including Win8 - Friday evening 14th of June - yesterday I could render my first image in DAZ Studio 4.6, today my first render in Poser Pro 2014. I now have an Intel Core I7 4770K @3.5 GHz processor with water cooling, 32 GB DDR3 RAM, a 512 GB SSD Hard Drive for the system and main programs, a 2 TB Sata Hard Drive for backups, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 graphics card and Windows 8 Pro 64 bit as the system software.
So hopefully I can continue now with my projects without any more delays.

I dare to make this step now. Also because I have to. For those who know me, I am producing 3D content for more than 18 years that gave and gives me the freedom to professionally do what I love to do. Times not always were easy, but I never was forced to have other jobs to add to my income. This has changed now dramatically. DAZ' policy of flooding and saturating the market with products and 'producers' lowered the sales so much that I have to explore new ways to be able to live from what I (professionally) do.
But it is not only about the money. A big percentage of my image work, especially in adult sector, deserves a place where it's welco

I ordered a GTX 770 at first as well, but then a wonderfull sale came by that offered me a GTX 780 for almost the same price. I retruned the 770 and I am now the proud owner og a 780 
I have the same cpu (i7-4770k and managed to overclock it to 4500MHz with an aircooler EVO 212) but only 20 rams at this point as the ram prices have gone skyrocket since last year >>
It's nice to be able to plop anything onto your scene and the pc is content with anything you throw at it.
Take care and as they say: happy rendering ^^
