So, what do you go for, and why?...I am interested in your thoughts on this comparatively but very, very important matter...
My reasoning and consideration what are workstation parts is next; (Xeon, ecc. reg ram, Firepro and Quadro, sas ssd-s and other enterprise storage, and such) - Why workstation components vs consumer/gamer?
Well they are more reliable, more durable and its drivers are made specifically for work related purpose. When we look at some benchmarks we see that inadequately putting markets price and performance high on list of priorities can be somewhat ethically challenging. That is a conundrum which big guys as Intel, AMD, NVidia, Microsoft, Apple and such can easily, well, easier direct in the right way. With respectful cooperation of other software and hardware companies. Here is the thing; price of someone’s workstation hardware is generally higher and if we have gamer and consumer hardware achieving similar, same or better performance for much lesser price can we ask of the world to buy workstation hardware? Also if someone work with tools he is to profit from them so he logically can support industry more than someone who bought PC so his kid can play Halo. Sometimes there are situations where 500 €uro Gpu has similar performance as 5000 €uro one. Performance of pc parts is not easy to measure as there are many variations and dependable to integrate into equation. From what I’ve seen 3D software still generally profits in performance from workstation grade hardware but that line is sometimes or more too bleak. You can look at it this way; many times in parks we see those paths that were not designed to be there in the first place but anyway everyone is walking through it, because it’s convenient. We need to design better don’t we? More on this in article I decided to write about this subject https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/archicad-samurai-general-andrey-pape%C5%A1a-

. Don't hate the ones that are well intended and open your eyes in the right ways but adopt to be wiser. Have a great day guys.
