One of the main advantages of personal computers is incredible flexibility. If you have enough money, you can assemble the machine almost any configuration. Here, for example, what the most powerful components available to PC users look like.
CPU
The processor is the heart of the computer. And at the moment, the most powerful "heart", which user can afford itself is Intel Core i7-6950x. Of course, this ten-fold chip refers to the last generation of Intel Broadwell-E and works exclusively with the RDR4 RAM4 RAM. The cost of the novelty is currently about $ 1650.
Motherboard
Deciding with the choice of processor, the user must select the appropriate motherboard suitable for a specific chip. As we already know, the most powerful processors belong to the Intel Broadwell-E family. This generation uses the X99 chipset and the LGA2011 socket. The best motherboard with such parameters - ASUS X99 Deluxe-II.
On the X99 Deluxe-II, the user will find everything that may need for PC at all. For example, the card is already equipped with slots U.2 and M.2 for still exotic solid-state drives. Also here there are USB 3.1 Type-C connectors, eight slots for DDR4 memory 3333MHz. There is nothing better asus X99 Deluxe II on the market now. This baby is about $ 420.
RAM
The Intel Broadwell-E platform broke through the "ceiling" in 64 GB of RAM, so that the user can get 128 GB with a new processor. Frankly, I can not imagine, for which someone may need even 64 GB. But since we decided to "swing" the power for the sake of power, we will not stop before common sense!
The most powerful memory today is Corsair Dominator Platinum. The most powerful set in this series is a set of eight diamelocks DDR4 3000MHz 16 GB, which is a total of 128 GB in total. Today, such a kit will cost the user about $ 1 thousand.
Video card
Since we decided not to dwell on semi-dimensions, no compromise price and quality can be speech. We need power! And the most powerful video card in the world is currently the NVIDIA Titan X Pascal model.
Numerous tests indicate that this is the first in history and while the only video card, which is capable of issuing a frequency of 60 frames per second of 4K permission at maximum graphics settings. Two Titan X Pascal cards are coping with 5K proceedable resolution. The cost of one Titan X Pascal card on the official NVIDIA website today is $ 1.2 thousand.
HDD
Until recently, hard drives were a faint link in any, even the most powerful assembly. All began to change with the advent of fast and reliable solid-state disks. Of course, SSD carriers are still too expensive. This is a new technology, and for novelty you always have to overpay. Nevertheless, definitely, the best solid-state drive in the market is the Samsung 850 EVO volume of 4 TB. As practice shows, the usual user has enough such volume with the head. The cost of a new Samsung 850 EVO is currently about $ 1.5 thousand.
Power Supply
No matter how paradoxically, the most powerful modern components consume relatively little energy. This we must reduce the technological process. A modern chip, made according to the 10-nm technical process, can consume less energy than the processor of past years, made in 20-nm technical process. So the most modern PC assemblies in particularly powerful power supplies do not need. Upon fact, a power supply capacity of 600 watts is enough for any assembly on the basis of one video card. However, if the user wants to use several "Titans" in parallel, then it will be necessary for the relevant power.
The best in the world of BP today is considered to be Corsair Ax1500i with a capacity of 1500 watts. It is reliable, quiet, and, importantly, is completely modular. That is, if some loops are not used in the current assembly, you can simply disable them. No excess wiring bundles in your computer. CORSAIR AX1500I is $ 410 today.
