Hello!!!!
So I am a motion designer who mostly does 2D animations. My animation program of choice is After Effects but I also use Illustrator and Photoshop to storyboard and to create style frames. Recently I have been getting further into Cinema 4D and am now realizing that GPU rendering is the new wave with a lot of 3D programs. Especially when it comes to Octane Renderer and Redshift. I currently have Windows 10 Pro, a Ryzen 5 1600, 980 Founders Edition, and 32GBs of Corsair LPX DDR4 memory. I plan to upgrade my CPU to a Ryzen 7 3000 series when that drops, but at the moment a GPU is at the top of my upgrade list. Price is definetly a consideration, I don't have deep pockets unfortunatley.
What are your recommendations?
