    Good question and happy I found this...
    I'm also busy with building a few machines for both Premier and Resolve (2 separate machines) and have a total budget of around $3500 per machine.
    Must be Intel i7 and I need to add a few other things on it also.

    So basically looking for the best spec machine for around $2500 maximum....

    Also need to decide between the nVidia 1080Ti 11GB and the Quadro P2000 5GB????

    Any help with a great spec machine would be appreciated....

    Cheers

    Quick preliminary comments.

    1. I know nothing about Resolve.
    2. I would never consider that Quadro card for any Premiere application unless you are going have a very expensive 10-bit monitor. and then it is two puny for even that.  In our dear departed Harm's words, comparing a GTX 1080 Ti to a Quadro P2000, that is like comparing a Ferrari 458 to a Volkswagen Beetle
    3. Notice, I do not consider hard disk drives in any basic configuration they of course can be added but only for backup and archiving.
    4. Maybe I should figure out a way to get paid for this so I can keep buying and testing new technology..
