Hey professionals of the internet. I have a gaming/working PC that I use for gaming and recording HD 1080p video. I also use it for editing and right now I’m using it for 3D animation and rendering. The renders that I am doing are 1080p mental-ray AutoDesk Maya renders, and last night I rendered 120 frames of animation and started at about 6:15 and ended at 11:00 PM, in the render log. I didn’t mind that it took that long, but it was just a pain in the butt, as I have so many shots to animate and render that I need to either speed it up to 1 hour for 120 frames, or be able to animate while it’s rendering. I don’t wanna turn the quality down, don’t ask me to do that. Anyways, I was wondering what I should upgrade in my PC with $220. Here are my current specs:
8 GB of Premium Corsair Vengeance RAM red at 1600 Mhz DDR3
Intel core i5 @ 3.00 / 3.2 turbo no overclock available.
Nvidia GeForce 760X twin frozr 2 GB(I’m pretty sure that’s good enough)
So I’m pretty darn sure I should upgrade my RAM, so can you guys link me to some good RAM, and you know, best buy for under $220. It needs to be worth it. Anyways, thanks for the help in advance.
Ok here's the next edit:
I have a quad-core i5 running @ 3.00/3.2 turbo-boost technology from intel, I'm pretty sure it has 8 hyperthreads. Or 4. I guess i7 with overclocking would be good, but the issue is that, do I have to add on 70 dollars for a fan? or would the stock CPU fan work? Thanks for the quick reply.
