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

Dean

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..

You should try your hand at being a freelance writer for computer magazines.  Companies will sometimes lend hardware for testing purposes.

Well here is approximately $2500 configuration for a production facility where the first one was a personal configuration and this is a terrible configuration but to meet your budget and provide a GTX 1080 TI with an Intel processor It was sacrificing a lot\

     

CPUi7-7800X 6-cores 4.0 GHz Turbo$380
MBASUS PRIME X299-A$310
RAM32 GB  DDR4-2666$330
GPUGTX 1080 Ti$770
SSD1250 GB Samsung 850 EVO--Boot$100
SSD21 TB GB Samsung 960 EVO--Project/Media$470
HeatsinkCoolermaster Masterair Pro 4$45
Second Fan$15
Case & PS850 Watt Gold$220
$2,640

This is like using an old Chevy 6-cylinder inline engine and supercharging it (the 6-core Intel with the GTX 1080 Ti).  The is not a balanced system, and it is low on memory for a production system

I would not consider the Quadro P2000 unless you're going to be running other workstation apps that require it for optimal performance and/or quality. You see, the Quadro P2000 is actually only about 80 percent of a GeForce GTX 1060 (GPU-wise), with only 1024 CUDA cores and only a 160-bit GDDR5 memory bus with a throughput of only 160 GB/second (versus 1280 CUDA cores and a 192-bit GDDR5 memory bus with a throughput of 216 GB/second for recent 6GB versions of the GTX 1060).

As Bill Gehrke stated, you will have to make severe sacrifices to your planned build in order to accommodate both an Intel CPU and a higher-end Nvidia GPU. Either you get a powerful CPU but a less-than-sufficient GPU or a powerful GPU but a weakling CPU. And all this is because memory (both RAM and NAND flash) prices right now are through the roof, being much more expensive than it was two years ago.

And I would definitely not go with a combination of an i7-7820X with only 16GB total of RAM and only a GeForce GTX 1050 card with only 2GB of VRAM. This configuration, too, is very imbalanced. But that's all that I could fit into that $2,500 budget without making severe sacrifices on the disks and the power supply. (Likewise for the combination of that GTX 1080 Ti but only a quad-core i7-7700K and 16 to 32 GB of system RAM: It is very imbalanced as well.)

In other words, you're pretty much stuck between a rock and a hard place, in terms of the permissible hardware combinations for that budget.
