Xeon or i7?
Go to solution
Solved by Faceman,
If you already own a Z97 motherboard, which it looks like you do, definitely go i7. Its only $50 more than the least expensive hyperthreaded Xeon, and it is overclockable, which will greatly improve render times, and as you mentioned iGPU. I can tell you, if I didn't have an iGPU on my i5, troubleshooting would have been a serious pain in the ass, and likely cost me a lot more money. Having that dedicated GPU is really nice, you may not think you need it, but when it comes in handy, it comes in handy big time.
