Hardware / new pc build up
« on: 2019-08-08, 20:44:32 »
Hello Corona Forum users
My current desktop is an intel i7-6700(4cores/8threads) @3.4GHz base speed. Its really weak when dealing with rendering large scenes with corona and that's why I am thinking of an upgrade but not really sure what to upgrade to and that's why I am seeking help with a couple of questions.
1-If I want to upgrade to a 16-core cpu would you guys recommend to get the AMD Processor Ryzen ThreadRipper 2950X 16 Core 3.5 GHz or wait till the upcoming September and get the new AMD Ryzen 9 3950X 16core 3.5GHz)?
2-If I do intend to go even higher and get the Ryzen ThreadRipper 2990WX with its 32 cores, would you say that it would be the best option to go for in building a new setup ? In other words, is its performance that much better and powerful than the 16 core 2950X threadripper that it deserves to be bought for almost double the price than the 16 core 2950X threadripper?
Attached is my current desktop benchmark result.
Hope to hear your advice and comments.
