Hi, I'm an architecture student who is looking for a good rendering rig.
I'll be using this PC for 3ds max vray rendering, CAD, Sketchup and occational gaming.
For now i have i7 6700k and i7 5930k in my mind. Will the processors serve the purpose or should I opt for the i7 5960x.
And will it be worth the extra money. Which of these CPU's will be the best bang for the buck.
Thanks.

The 1650 v3 is basically the 5930k rebranded. I see no reason to buy it instead of the 5930k or 5820k. The Xeon is NOT unlocked, the i7s are. they all support the same speed of ram.

5820k would be my choice, its the best value for money in the 6core 12 thread cpus.

Thanks for the reply RobCrezz ,I was just searching and found that xeon 1650 v3 is similar to 5930k. It is an unlocked processor and supports upto 2133 mhz ram. Now I'm really confused between 5930k and xeon 1650 v3.
