Upgrade from 4930k to R7 1800x?

[PaliteArchitect]

Ive ben using my 4930k for last 2 years. I am architect, do tons of rendering on 3ds max. Also i do gaming, from time to time with 1070.

 

cpu overclocked to 4.4 

gpu overclocked to 2045mhz

 

should i upgrade to ryzen? cuz i would enjoy all those 8 cores, especially if their ipc is higher. Although troubles with memory is a concern to me. I want at least 32gb, maybe 64

Does it worth the money spent? How much can i sell my 4930k, asus z79 deluxe mobo, 16(4x4gb)gb ram 2400mhz from hyper x for? i hope at least to pay for cpu and memory from it

e: removed thought u had i5

Yep, get the R7 mate.

 

is it much more powerfull?

You'll probably get about a 20-30% performance boost, so it's your choice if you want to or not.

more than that depending on the task, going from 4 thread to 16 is a big jump.

my cinebench score is twice as low as 1800x

apologies, but my point still stands you will notice a good ipc and core count increase.

Cinebench is the 1800X's best benchmark.

Compare in something else and you will see that it's much closer.

 

you get 25% more threads, and a very slight bump in IPC, plus a very small bump in clockspeed. (ivy bridge > Haswell)

so maybe 30-35% performance bump

well, cinebench is a render test. I do rendering stuff, so it seems closest one to my intended use. Ill wait a bit to see if all the issues will disappear

30-35% is a good bump.

Especially considering long-term upgrade path it looks even more attractive

 

I can expect to sell my Mobo+memory+cpu and pay off the price of 1800x+AsusZ370mobo. Would have to pay extra for memory though

I just want to sell it untill its 6cores are worth something

There seem to be some software issues with the platform. I would wait till those get fixed before buying.

makes sense
