Jartz , does your system a!low for additional hdd and how is your CPU cooling system. Reason I ask is because rendering can heat up both CPU and gpu,. That's enough to bring a system toa screeching halt. Not bad for a gaming system, price wise. What other features does your computer have?

Yes. I think it allows for an additional hhd. I bought a WD hard drive 1 TB, and I think I can add an another ssd. I just needed extra space, but hearing from others, ssd is faster; don't particularly care for it being 265GB, would've prefer more. I think the cooling system is okay as I've done test renders and manage to get 40 minutes in one scene. It may vary I don't know as I don't do gaming. I can upgrade to just only the hard drives, ram and the processor, it would take some trial and error because it's a slightly small area to work with. It's pretty much a simple symple system with a faster processing. That's pretty much it.

Hope it helps.
