Hello everybody!
so as the title says i'm putting together my new personal build and i'm looking for some recommendations. Mainly i will be using this setup for rendering (both exteriors and interiors) and maybe some casual gaming (but as i have a ps4 that's not the main goal). My current setup is an HP Prebuilt pc with i5 6400 CPU (Corona benchmark 8:01@1Mln Rays) and GT730 Gpu (i can't even use the Fast nvidia denoiser...).
I already have a few components:
PSU: Corsair ax1200i
Cooling: NZXT Kraken x63 AIO
Case: NZXT h510i
OPTION A: intel 10th gen
MOBO: Asus ROG Strix z490-A
CPU: i5 10600k (6Core 12Threads 4,1-4,8Ghz 12MB Cache L3 - Best CoronaBenchmark: 1:58@4,1Mln Rays)
RAM: HyperX Fury RGB 32gb 3200mhz DDR4
GPU: EVGA Gtx1660 SC Ultra
SSD: Samsung 970 EVO Plus NVME 500gb
TOTAL: Around 1000€
OPTION B: Ryzen Build
MOBO: Asus Prime X570-PRO
CPU: Ryzen 7 2700x (8Core 16Threads 3,7-4,3Ghz 16MB Cache L3 - Best CoronaBenchmark: 1:41@4,7Mln Rays)
RAM: HyperX Fury RGB 32gb 3200mhz DDR4
GPU: EVGA GeForce RTX 2060 KO ULTRA GAMING
SSD: Samsung 970 EVO Plus NVME 500gb
TOTAL: Around 1020€
I do really care about the aesthetics... and yes, i would spend a bit more for good-looking parts over the top performing but ugly... i know a lot will hate me on this... but hey, i't'll be on my desk day and night!
I think the AMD build will perform better both in rendering and in gaming (even though i would not game on this machine A LOT i would still like being able to try out Recent titles with RTX). Also i think it would be much more future-proof as the new 5xxx amd processors will be compatible with x570 Mobos, meaning i could always update to a more recent cpu later (while Intel 1200 socket i'm not sure how long it will still go...)
Please if i said anything wrong or maybe you have any better components to suggest.. i'm here to listen! I still have a lot of time, as i'm waiting for BlackFriday and new amd/nvidia releases to see if prices will come down a bit.
Thanks to anyone who will help me decide!
