Hi guys,

So i am looking to purchase a CPU to use for Marvelous Designer (a 3D Cloth simulator) and DAZ3D (a 3D Rendering software which renders with Nvidia iRAY). 95% of my work would be Image Rendering (seen below) , and it would be for work projects so i expect a continuous use for atleast 12 hours a day of rendering .
After much extensive research i have come up with the following setup:



Graphics Card : 1 x Gigabyte GTX 980 Ti Xtreme 6Gb DDR5 OR Asus GTX TITAN X 12GB DDR5 (GTXTITANZ-12GD5) NVidia PCI Exp.
Processor : intel i7 5930K (Box) (3.5Ghz, C15MB) Intel LGA 2011v3 OR Intel Xeon E5 2630 v3 2.4 G LGA 2011 (2.4G/15MB) 8/16
MB : ASRock X99X Killer Intel Socket 2011v3 OR Asus Z9PA-D8 (LGA 2011, SUPPORT XEON ?5-2600) Intel LGA 2011
RAM :Corsair CMD32GX4M2B3200C15 (16Gb x 2) DDR4
Cooling Fan : Corsair H105
PSU : Corsair HX1000i 1000W
Casing : Corsair Carbide 600C

Are these specs good for minimal rendering times (<10secs). Would they produce maximum results in iRay with my images ? Or are some items even too overpowering for the work i am doing

Help is greatly appreciated :) Thanks !

Solution
You made a very good build for the start,

1) Xeon E5 2630 v3 is the best

2) the ram should be 4x8 not 2x16, because LGA 2011 platform utilize quad channel

3) I would use two SSD for source data and the result.
