RyderSK Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 More money to invest : new INTEL Core i7-3930K, lesser investition INTEL Core i7-2600K, year old, but cheaper and still great power. New platform P9X79 is good. I suggest Asus brand, but that's up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJLynn Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 I'm working on a new web site to give detailed answers to this sort of question. In the meantime, check the page linked in my signature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Question to AJ. I'm getting a new workstation in the office - likely dual Xeon. I mentioned to my IT guy that I wanted an SSD drive for boot/cache. He was interested and investigated them and later informed me that they have a limited write cycle life. That is to say that each sector can only be written to ~10,000 times and then it dies. And then your drive begins to get smaller and smaller as other sectors reach their write limit. Do you still think they are worth the cost knowing that they will suffer from this behavior? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJLynn Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Steve, I'm not concerned. Current models have longevity estimates in the millions of write cycles, and their controllers spread the load to maximize life. Life expectancy is in several-years-to-decades. You'll have replaced it before it fails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BVI Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I think your question can be answered by another simple question, how much cash are you willing to spend? My recommendation would be to purchase the highest spec PC you can afford at this point in time. You dont want to have to replace it in a year and should at least get 2-3 years out of the beast for a decent return on your investment. Also, check the ram banks on the motherboard, sometimes the cheaper ones (even with the high end chipset) only have 2 ram slots, which is useless for 3D purposes.
