Hi everyone,
I need to decide between this two workstation. I am a editor and mostly use Photoshop, After Effect, Avid media composer.
SYSTEM 1:
ASUS Z10PE D16 WS 1024GB RAM
DUAL XEON E5 2620 v4 2.1Ghz (8 cores 16 threads combine 16 cores 32 threads)
2133Mhz DDR4 24GB
Nvidia Quadro M4000
SYSTEM 2:
ASUS x99-A II 128GB RAM
i7 6850K 3.6Ghz (6 cores 12 threads)
3200Mhz DDR4 24GB
Nvidia Quadro M4000
I do know that the i7 6850K is the faster processor and with faster DDR4 RAM will give good result when considering the price, and also most software mentioned above will hardly use
more the 8 to 10 cores at one go, but my question is in situation when all the three software are running, for example there is a title animation rendering going on in After Effect (in the background) and i am working on a documentary in Avid which has 7 to 8 video and audio tracks with some effects in it and also in between i need to go to Photoshop to make some mattes for my edit i am doing.which system will be more efficient in these situation.
It is not about the speed always ( speed is important you can not wait for one day for the title animation rendering) but also the efficient of working between other software while the rendering is going on.
I know system 1 will be costlier than system 2 (not by very huge margin) but if system 2 can give me result than how does not want to save money, but it should not cost me in time as we know in this profession time is money. And also the system should we future proof, it should be there for at least 4 to 8 years, until and unless there are some huge technology change.
What do you guys think?
Any help would be appreciated.
