Hey guys (and specially Dimitris),
Like Dhaivat Films in another thread, I'm looking for a High-End workstation config for 3D architectural rendering.
Use:
-90% 3DS Studio / 10% Photoshop-Acrobat Suite
-Render Vray RT (GPU) only for previewing purposes
-Production mode (CPU) for final render
-0% Gaming.
Budget: $5-6K (Note that prices in Switzerland are pretty similar to the US)
Only Intel Chips
Maybe you can do some minimal changes in your previous list (Dimitris config for a $8.9K workstation):
CPU: 2x Intel Xeon E5-2687W v3 10C/20T, 3.1~3.5GHz
Cooler: 2x Corsair H90 Hydro
Mobo: Asus Z10PE-D8 WS
RAM: 2x Crucial 32GB Kit (8GBx4) DDR4 2133 ECC
GPU:PNY NVIDIA Quadro K5200 8GB
OS Drive:Samsung XP941 512GB M.2
Storage Drive:Samsung 840 EVO 1TB
PSU:Seasonic PLATINUM-1000
Case:Corsair Obsidian 750D
- What is are the best cooling components necessary to overclock the workstation? Do you recommend it?
-Which set could give me a powerful machine and allow me to work with Photoshop while 3Ds Max is in production mode?
Monitor is another issue.
What are you suggestions for a high-efficient one with at least :
- Resolution: 2560x1080p
- Size: Min 27"
- True RGB color representation (I'm gonna be rendering and editing 3D Architectural views from 4K pictures)
- Budget: 500-700$
Thanks for all your help, time and wise advices!
Congrats for all the passion and professional opinions you show here.
Pol.
