I am partial to geek uninstaller. https://geekuninstaller.com/
There is aonther called revo uninstaller too I have heard good things about. Windows leaves it up to the program writiers making the programs to make uninstallers, but they usually leave behing a ton of garbage in my experience.
something like this? Link seems like anything over this jumps up to over $500. Is the upgrade to a 3060 like really worth it?
Whatever you can afford is always going to be the best answer, but since you don't list your budget at all (which is probably the most important part of it.), I'll just ask, what's important to you in a monitor?
Color accuracy? Refresh Rates? 2K/4K? Brightness? Size (giggity)? Type of panel?
I'm personally using two monitors. LG 34WN80C-B (34-inch Ultrawide), and LG 32QN600-B (32-inch). The ultrawide is my main monitor, quite color accurate and love the screen real estate, especially with Daz. The second monitor is a mix of folders, reference images, and often other lesser used panes that I just leave up there to have more space on the screen.
I use it to make cool art stuffs as well as a graphic novel I'm working on.
But, really, it's whatever you want. I know a few people who are traditional artists that use Daz3D to set up reference shots for lighting and anatomy.
Then there's all the adult things... the worst is the super lazy and low-effort comics that are being hobbled together to try to get Patreon money around these parts.
Drive #1 looks good. Drive #2 would largely be fine, but also consider something like this:
​
Notice the r/W speed difference. The one you selected has ~530 MB/s, whereas the m.2 has transfer speeds up to 3430 MB/s. This will make a very large difference when working in Daz, and it's cheaper!
You can get an Alienware Alpha for about that much. Its a gaming computer built like a console so you cant really customise, but still functions as a normal computer and rendering is pretty good, its what I started with. https://www.amazon.com/Alienware-Machine-ASM100-6980BLK-Desktop-Console/dp/B015XK1O6K
But build your own is still the best option and there are plenty of budget builds tuts on youtube that will even give you parts lists and stuff. Some can be better and cheaper then a premade one.
This is what I see on the US Amazon store:
$350 US
So that's an NVIDIA 900. (Really the only option at that price point)
I don't know if it has CUDAs or if it does how many it has but that's what you're looking for CUDAs.
I see a lot of folks recommending the 2070 and 2080 but don't know enough to weigh in.
Hope that's helpful.
I too am looking to build a desktop and am just surprised by the price of graphics cards. Truly the most expensive component in the system.
For DAZ the CPU and memory take a back seat to the graphics card unless you're doing CPU rendering.
