Good Afternoon
I've been searching in the Internet and the most I look for, the most confused I became.
I want to build a workstation for Photoshop/Lightroom/Video Editing/Web Editing. with some use of a Wacom Drawing Table. I do not pretend to play games (I have a PS4 that does what I wanted for games).
I still prefer AMD CPUs (All my life I had CPUs from AMD, since the AMD 5X86, K6-3, Thunderbird, Athlon 64, Phenom and now I use a laptop with a AMD Turion X2) although I well aware that Intel has the upper hand now and I'm not opposed of using an Intel CPU.
So I came with 2 configurations for what I wanted to do - One Intel and one AMD:
Intel Workstation

Lian Li PC-A79B
Corsair AX1200i PSU
Intel Core i7-4820K
Asus Sabertooth X79
16GB Corsair Dominator Platinum DDR3 1866MHz (4x4GB) Kit
AMD FirePro W7000
Asus Xonar D2X/XDT PCI-e
Samsung 840 Pro 256GB SSD
Western Digital Black 2TB SATA III 64MB Hard Drive
OEM Blu Ray Drive
Corsair Hydro Series H100i
3x Dell 27" LED U2713HM
AMD Workstation

Basically most of the parts are common, the case can be this one or any case that have more that eight 5.25" bays (My first favourite PC case was the old CoolerMaster Stacker 810). They are missing the 3x 27" Chief K3F310B KONTOUR LCD stand from the list.
The first one is more expensive that the second one. Although both are core intensive (One is a four native/eight logical and the other eight native but with extra 1GHz of clock).
The money is not the problem but it's not a do-or-die situation, so I can wait for the work to finish. I only want to have the best price/equipment available, or do the same with less.
What is your opinion (Objective ones, not fan boy please. This is only an opinion, not a war for that is best).
