Stop Motion

[umbles]

If anyone could help me out, I would really appreciate it I'm building a PC for my friend who does stop motion and music. Right now I'm at the limits of his budget and I have two routs I can go. For what he does, would be it more beneficial to run a

3700x with 64gb of RAM

or

3900x with 32gb of RAM

 

(The rest of the specs are a Noctua NH-D12, MSI MPG X570 Gaming Edge motherbaord, 970 evo 500gb M.2, Seagate Barracuda 2TB, Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2060 Super)

Can't tell if it's a dumb question (and I just don't know that) with a clickbaity title 

 

or if no one feels confident answering it

This one, stop motion, requires a 2.0ghz cpu and 2GB+ memory. Don't think it's really going to matter a great deal how you build this system.

His current rig is 16gb ram and a 4 core 3.0ghz cpu and he says his computer often bogs down easily and takes forever to render. He works in 4k and uses several layers in his stop motion, so I'm afraid whatever program you looked up isn't as intensive as what he uses. The work load would be similar to using premiere in 4k, with several layers/filters/ect.

Yea it's hard to look up exactly what it is, I'm not super familiar with the program honestly.

 

So a quad core..... what the Ryzen 3 1200? Or a Ryzen Athlon x2 with SMT? 

 

How much of the memory is being used?

Is it more a core count issue than it is a memory amount issue?

 

Do you have any more information about the program he is using?
