Rendering Machine

[iscream93]

Hi, I want to build a high end rendering machine and I dont mind about the gaming fps, what im focusing is on rendering especially 3dsmax software. Which processor should i buy? either Intel i9-7900x or threadripper 1950x?

[Technomancer__]

definitely the threadripper

[Technomancer__]

planning to do a threadripper 2950x for someone this summer for 3ds max with vray

 

+ a r7 2700 for me

 

hopefully, 2nd gen threadripper gets released till then

Thank you ethrocreeper for helping me out. 2nd gen threadripper is gonna release? really?

When it comes to rendering, it tends to utilize more CPU cores to speed up the process, so in this case, I'd recommend going with the threadripper 1950X.

Your rig configuration looks good.

[Mr_Troll]

for the same price you are choosing between 10 or 16 cores.... so for rendering..... definitely go for 1950x...  moar cores will help with that...

i would change the hdd for something like the 3tb toshiba p300 (i know you already have 4 but you get much more gb/$ and who knows you might use it in the future)

get the Corsair HX 1000! (only a bit more expensive but i like the monitoring feature)

 

to save some money i would go with lpx or something cheaper for the same performance but that's just me so if you like the RBG get the trident z

 

for cooling the kraken looks cool but i would go for something that performs a litle bit better like the evga clc 280. but if you want the looks go for it. btw i found the arctic liquid freezer 360 that has a tdp of 350 and was made for shit like threadripper https://www.arctic.ac/us_en/liquid-freezer-360.html 

and you case seems to support it

a yea forgot about it give me 10 min

[Technomancer__]

@iscream93btw do you need 10gigabit networking?

for example, the one am building will be a workstation + nas for the other workstations so i want it to be 10g so other workstations wont be sharing 1g

@iscream93 i prefer the asus PRIME X399-A + its a litle bit cheaper

[Technomancer__]

thank you very much. I think i've got lot of answers right now. If not im quite confused whether to go intel or amd for this rendering stuff because im looking lot of reviews on this both monster and it seems that intel performance quite high

The Aorus 1080Tis are pretty sheet.

I'd go with Asus Prime X399-A and Strix 1080Tis or EVGA Hybrid ones, so they dont limit you with thermals.

Zotac 1080Ti AMP extreme is total garbshit.

It has total autist VRM that overheats even at stock
