Hey I need some advice. I have been given a budget of 10-15 K for a super premium VR rig including headset and computer. I have been looking at the i9-7980xe and rtx2080 ti

... looking at the specs for workstations Xeon class cpus and the Quadro series gpus I don’t see any real benefit for the workstation class hardware yeah more vram. 

 

I have a HTC Vive Pro with wireless adapter and am super impressed so I plan on ordering one of those. 

 

I’m working with unreal engine and unreal studio if that makes any difference..

 

Any thoughts or suggestions? 

 

Thanks!

Never hurts to get a second opinion. Plus it seems like the real question they are asking is if professional grade hardware has any benifit for their use case.

I could agree with that, but given the OP working with Unreal Engine, given a budget - he is a professional of some sort, who has also looked at hardware - who clearly VR's at home with the good stuff - looks fishy, very much so.  I mean, Im not a professional, I don't VR at home yet (still building my Ryzen rig) and I could answer these questions and Im a newb.  Im not going to answer these questions though because there are smarter people here than I, and tbh all it takes is Google-fu!

Look I’m just looking to see if my gut feeling is the right place.. i could go get a standard workstation with overkill Xeon processors and quadro rtx gpus but if I can save some budget for hardware here i can splurge on other tech later like portable backpacks or more trackers ... just wanted an honest opinion..

imho its so early in VR that to futureproof would be hard to do beyond spending all of your budget on the rig and VR setup.  I don't see where you can save, as VR resolution increases it will tear into the hardware etc but I am no expert.  Your CPU suggestion, x299 board, 64gb of compatible ram, 2 RTX 2080ti (watch Linus' video on NVlink or whatever is the newest version of SLI), biggest best case, SSD's etc

This is a project for work.. they gave me a budget and I’m like ok... how far do I want to go...

For a 10,000 dollar budget, you'd be pushing your pennies for a well-rounded PC with adequate SSD storage alone while looking at those expensive but critical data transfer speeds that go up to 6 Gb/s, for instance, the Micron 5200 ECO which is 1,950 dollars. Although it has an incredible storage capacity of 7680 GB since this is a business, the option here is expensive though to my understanding of most business models "Latency Kills" while it is necessary to look at both the read and write performance over traditional Hard Drives which in this day and age this aforementioned SSD blows those Hard Drives out of the water, with a read speed at more than 26x's the speed of the best Hard Drives and 2x the write speed. And since Newegg and Linus have their partnership, I will use them for example 7680 Gb/s of 900GB SAS 10K 6G HP ENT 2.5 by HP with Volume discounts is 3849.57 dollars, this is equal to the performance of the one Micron 5200 ECO though you would have to double the quote and almost use 6x more crucial storage in the form factor you choose to build upon. (p.s. sorry for the wordiness).

  • Here lies the line that I would post the specs of my MacBook Pro 15-inch baddy but... I can't place the information of the serial code on this website due to the restrictions set in place by my business owner (My grandfather) because he purchased the laptop and does not want any information like his name out their. And if I did just put the specs and no serial number no one would believe me so yeah.

? wow .. well I had no idea storage alone could get so intense I appreciate the insight... thankfully none of the projects I’m working on are going to be radically data intensive but in the future when we scale up.  I think the brunt of what I’m going to need is quick multi core computation for pre rendering and maxed out gpu for all the dynamic lighting I have a lot of ram spec’d out for the complex Geometries I’m importing and processing I did see this m.2 and pcie storage is it really that much better than the traditional sata ?

This is a project for work.. they gave me a budget and I’m like ok... how far do I want to go...

You want eec memory if you are doing it for a business. There are definitely reasons to get professional grade hardware if it is for your company versus an individual.

Ecc memory* but though yes this is almost essential for any business whose monetary gain lies in the process performance and data handling of any computer.

Thanks for all your input and advice! I’ll post up what the final build ends up being once it’s all assembled!

 

Cheers!

Also, I do not know why I posted that motherboard I did not read the server part although a comparable motherboard and even better Xeon processor combo like this:
