Explanation

3D video rendering has two dominant hardware demands: (1) A specialized (high-performance) GPU/video card - modern rendering pipelines leverage GPU compute (CUDA, OpenCL) to dramatically accelerate 3D rendering tasks; a dedicated professional or high-end consumer GPU is essential. (2) High capacity hard drive - 3D renders produce extremely large source files, texture libraries, project files, and output video files, requiring substantial storage. Gigabit networking, extra USB ports, and HDMI output are general-purpose features not specific to rendering workloads. Liquid cooling can benefit a render workstation but is not as universally required as a capable GPU and ample storage.
