How is this PC Build?
Quick find code: 261-262-89-65811762
Rendering + playing NXT at the same time may introduce problems. i5's are more suited towards gaming rather than rendering I believe. The i7's are for more demanding uses (like yours), but they cost more.
To be able to cope with NXT's graphical demands AND the demands of rendering, you'll need a strong CPU - I'm not sure a budget build will be able to keep up with those sort of demands without showing some signs of struggles. I personally render + play NXT at the same time with my PC. However, I use Camtasia and experience rather large FPS drops (afking is possible, just nothing dangerous). I don't really know how an Intel CPU will do, but it should somewhat cope. Just don't expect silky smooth 60 fps while rendering
Your GPU is okay, but I'd personally go for the 750Ti. It's a great little card. It doesn't use too much power, yet can handle recent games surprisingly well on decent settings. To comfortably not experience drops on NXT's highest settings, you're going to need a high-end GPU (this is for ultra). NXT cares more about the GPU rather than CPU. The better the GPU, the better NXT will perform.
SSD is definitely worth it to boot Windows and store some frequently-played games on it. I don't have one, but they're worth it if you can afford it. .

I'm planning on using Java for the most part instead of NXT. Until it phases out, then I can try to maybe get a better GPU.
My expectations for FPS isn't really high anyways. I can handle even 40 FPS and I wouldn't personally mind. As for graphics, I usually play Runescape on the lowest possible settings anyways.
Would a 240 GB hybrid be good enough to last a while for SSDs?
So overall, I don't really plan on playing on higher graphics or NXT for a while so I guess this PC will last me a while right? @puretppc
