Need help with Choosing Specs cause the recommendations are not enough information
ok, i got the Specs but looks like when i contact to a PC builder , i need much more information to choose from and it is very overwhelming. Since 2 weeks i still couldn't order a computer
This is the Specs for Clo3d
CPU: Intel Processor Corei7 3.0Ghz or higher
RAM: 16GB or higher
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 and above (Except Quadro series), latest drivers and at least 4GB of graphics memory (GTX 1080 is recommended for better render efficiency.)
Display: 1920 x 1080
Hard Drive: 20+ GB disk space available for caching and temporary files; SSD preferable
Pointing Device: Three-button mouse
But when i try contact with a company who customize a PC, looks like i need much more information. Like do i need any liquid cooling system? If yes, what should be? 120mm, or 240mm? What should be the motherboard? There are many motherboards to choose from and don't know which ones are ok or good choice.. Do I need fans? what power supply do i need? I think we need much more detailed information for the Specs because when we contact with a PC builder they are asking many other questions that i am not even aware.. If you have any input please let me know. thanks!!

Get your PC built by someone else. The information on the specs page is plenty and whoever is building your PC should just make a competent decision on these questions instead of asking you to specify it. Imagine if you paid someone to dig a hole and they ask you what kind of shovel they should use - ridiculous.
To answer your specific questions:
You definitely don't need liquid cooling.
The motherboard should be a model that supports the parts you will be putting into it, with a bit of expansion room, from a reputable brand.
Yes a computer needs fans.
The required wattage for the power supply depends mostly on which CPU and GPU you're using. For an i7 and GTX1080 I would recommend 600w. You can probably get away with a bit less but it hardly makes a difference in price.
But again, if you're paying someone to build your computer, it's their job to figure this out.

Hi @Brockrogers, thanks alot for the reply. And explanations.. Appreciated! The thing is the company CyberPowerPC don't build the PC for the customer. They just offer many systems , when i gave them the requirements to them they directed me the most closest system that they offer but then customers needs to customize from that.. They told me check the GAMER Infinity XLS and customize from there with your needs. But when you check the listing so many informations to choose from. So that's why i have been so confused. Because looks like this computer is for more Gaming, so probably i might not need many of the functions but when i am not a knowledgeable person with tech parts, it makes it difficult to choose from. Like on the forum of cyberpowerpc, some said i need a liquid cooling but i would believe you more that i don't need a liquid cooling because you use clo3d.
They offer i7 with 8 cores , not 4 cores. but i think that should be fine.. Also I might get 2070 or 2080, but i wasn't sure.. do you think is there a huge difference with 1080? or is 1080 would be more than enough?
