Hi guys,
I am looking to purchase a CPU. Please critique me on the setup below:
* Usage is mostly for 3D Rendering most of the time + multi-tasking with Adobe Illustrator and Corel Draw
* 95% of my work would be Image Rendering (seen below) ,
* It would be for work projects so i expect a continuous use for atleast 12 hours a day of rendering * Render time is money , so i expect a decent though not top-of-the-line ridiculously priced setup.
After much extensive research i have come up with the following setup:
PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant
CPU: Intel Core i7-5930K 3.5GHz 6-Core Processor ($554.99 @ SuperBiiz)
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D15 82.5 CFM CPU Cooler ($88.49 @ Amazon)
Motherboard: Asus RAMPAGE V EXTREME EATX LGA2011-3 Motherboard ($505.98 @ Newegg)
Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB (4 x 8GB) DDR4-2666 Memory ($134.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: Sandisk Solid State Drive 256GB 2.5" Solid State Drive ($144.95 @ Amazon)
Video Card: Asus GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB Video Card ($709.99 @ Amazon)
Case: Corsair 750D ATX Full Tower Case ($145.44 @ Mac Mall)
Power Supply: Corsair 1000W 80+ Platinum Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply ($188.79 @ B&H)
Optical Drive: LG WH16NS40 Blu-Ray/DVD/CD Writer ($54.88 @ OutletPC)
Case Fan: Corsair Air Series AF140 Red 66.4 CFM 140mm Fan ($15.09 @ Amazon)
Total: $2543.59
My Workflow:
Basically I am using this as a workstation to importing fabric images created in Adobe Photoshop, style them using an Avatar in a 3D Application called Marvelous Designer, then posing and rendering them with Nvidia iRAY on DAZ3D by placing the avatars in front of an architectural background , thus creating a very realistic 3D Photoshoot which mimicks a fashion catalog.
This requires the above 3 applications to be always ON though in the background , just incase some changes are necessary.
Some Questions :
* Do i need extra cooling fans since the PC would be working intensively? If so , what should i add?
* Is 1000W Powersupply enough?
* I chose a 6GB 980 Ti CARD instead of the TITAN because my rendering would be mostly architectural which uses CPU Power , but i am taking an X-99 motherboard with 4 PCI 3.0 slots for the long run, incase more graphic cards needs to be added.
I know that's a long post but if you came to this point and would like to help me, I would really aprreciate it!
