  1. Hi all, I got some weird problem that I never had before (sorry my English), I rendered my scene y-day and saved it on frame buffer history and raw images on my hard drive. Today I made some corrections inside scene and what ???? My renders saved y-day in frame buffer history are darker today :confused: I also compared it to images that I saved y-day and also in vray history are darker... Scene got same setting as y-day. My renders today also rendering darker than y-day. It looks like some gamma issue but I have no idea what is going on because settings are same as y-day...
  2. So what motherboard you recommend for 5820K and what for 4930K?? I want to overclock but I agree that I don't need so many different slots as you said. Just some basic graphic card, couple of HDD, and SSD in the future. Thats what I got for now:
  3. I am buying a new PC in next month. My boudged has changed a little bit and I can't spend whole money only for PC, so it would be nice to get some savings (for expamlpe I resigned from the graphic card - CPU rendering, and put less RAM - 16GB). So guys what platform you suggest ?? Any other changes ?? Take a look:
  4. Hi there! I need a new advice. I heard something about new i7-5820K processors. It is much cheaper than 4930K/3930K and got preety close performance. Can you tell me is it worth to buy it instead 4930K/3930K ??
  5. The point is that this money left me after buying 3ds and vray. I have to spent it for pc and I have to buy best one. Don't need to make any savings. These set from previous posts looks nice and the price is good also. Ok now I will try to answer some questions that had left so maybe you could give me some new advices. My laptop is already 4-5 years old and it's too weak to handle my projects, actually even working in viewport with some complex scenes is very tedious. I am not playing any games etc. just working. Is there any advantages to working on win 8.1 than on win 7?? I'm very accustomed to win7 and it looks stable so far. Yes I appreciate the quiet work. As far considering the purchase of Noctua NH-D14/NH-D15. I want to overclock as far as it's safe to work without any damage in rendering of course. I am not using gpu (mentioned before, want only viewport smooth running). So far I thought about buying 2x 24" NEC EA244WMi to fit in the costs. I think that 256 GB SSD is enough to handle my apps and current projects. I can always buy new one later.
  6. Thank you for your suggestions ! I really forgot to mention that CPU Cooler is Corsair Hydro H100i But I have already counted it in costs on my previous reply. Case Antec P280 is compatible with this cooler (two 120mm fan slots on top of the case). Thank you for direct me in to right way of choosing RAM frequency so it is gonna to be a little bit cheaper. On SSD I would like to install OS and all programs and keep my recent projects. Brobably you are right, it is better to take 256 GB. HDD will be for storing all completed projects, models, textures etc. Can you recommend me any good PSU that can handle this set ?? I would like to overclock CPU a little bit by stock motherboard software. So you say that GTX will be best for my needs? (still images, only CPU). I have to think about monitors. My workplace has a desk about only 60cm deep so 27" could be too big because seat is very close to it. 2x24" could be a better ide but as I said I need to think a little bit about it. So you advice me to look for IPS ?? Maybe you got something specyfic in mind ??

  8. Thank you very much for help. I appreciate it very much, it is so helpfull for me. Based on your review I completed a set for the following parts: CPU Intel Core i7-4930K Motherboard Asus P9X79 WS RAM G.Skill DDR3 2400 MHz 4x8GB (32GB) (dunno what model exactly:confused:) Graphic nvidia Quadro K2000 2GB (low variant) nvidia Quadro K4000 3GB (best variant) SSD Samsung 840 Pro 256GB (low variant) Samsung 840 Pro 128GB (best variant) HDD Western Digital Caviar Black 1 TB Case Antec P280 Black Midi Case PSU Corsair AX1200i 80+ Platinum DVD Asus DRW-24B3ST (just better looking ) OS Windows 7 Professional SP1 64bit (OEM) Whole set will cost about 3500-3350$ (2500-2400€) so I am pretty happy about price. Tell me if you have some objections. Last thing is monitor, do you know something worth recommending ???
  9. First of all I want to thank you for your reply. I think that now you know why I ask you guys for help About that pc's that i mentioned- that is only an example that I don't really understand why one of them is more expensive than another in relation to the web rankings of efficency. That is my problem, I don't know for what should I pay my atention and for what I shouldn't. What things are most importand in case of rendering still images. You know it's not 100$ and I just don't want to waste my money for something ineficient. About your question: Buy branded workstation is the easiest way I think but I really want to buy most efficent device for this price so thats why I ask you for a help. It does not make any difference to me to complete computer set by myself or buy a branded one but if there are some very good branded models on market that you could really recommend for rendering still images than it will be much easier to just buy it and work on it I forgot to mention that I use 3ds max and v-ray
  10. Hi there, First I wanna say hello for everyone cg enthusiasts . My good laptop friend can't handle my works anymore so I decided to spend my money on a new workstation. I am thinkig about launch my own business so it must be a serious thing. My budget is 4500 $ (3300 € - I am from Europe) and can not be exceeded. I am making a still images, no animations and rendering only by CPU. I have started to look for some HP workstations like Z820 line but I am so confused cuz I am not up to date with news from pc world you know... I am just looking on some cpu benchmarks and compare processors overall rankings. For example some cheaper HP Z430 workstation with Xenon E5-1650 CPU (about 3000$) got much better ranking than E5-2620v2 CPU which is in some Z820 model (about 4300$). Can I ask you guys for a little help ?? Can you propose best solution for this price ? As I said, I am making only still images so far. At this price I need full set with monitor (about 23") and Win7 OS. RAM memory should be at least 16 GB and 32 GB max. Hope that you could help me with this issue and bring me some good ideas.
