Desk
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X (16 cores). Builds, Docker containers and test runs use every core. A Ryzen 7 9700X is a fine cheaper option.
RAM: 64GB DDR5 as two 32GB sticks. Using only two of the four slots leaves room to go to 128GB later. 64GB covers an IDE, a browser, a Docker stack, a test suite and a local AI coding model all running together. 128GB if you run several VMs or large local AI models.
Storage (two fast SSDs):
2TB fast SSD for the operating system, apps and active projects
4TB second SSD for Docker images, databases, VMs and design assets
A NAS or cloud backup for anything that matters. Don’t count on extra internal drives as your backup.
Consumer SSD pressure is easing at the edges while DDR5 stays tight.
Motherboard: X870 or B850 with at least three SSD slots, 2.5Gb Ethernet and Wi-Fi 7
Graphics card: A mid-range card is enough, like an RTX 5060 Ti 16GB or RTX 5070. The 16GB of video memory helps if they want to run AI models locally or use Adobe apps. Get a 5080 or 5090 for deep-dive AI work.
Power and cooling: an 850W Gold power supply and a good, quiet air cooler. A quiet machine matters when it’s running builds all day.
Operating system: Windows 11 Pro with WSL2, which runs Linux inside Windows, or plain Linux. Most web servers run Linux, so either works well.
Monitors: two 32" 4K screens. Extra screen space speeds up coding more than a faster processor does.
