Hi CG Experts,
we are in process of purchasing a rendering system for 3dsmax, vray, maya, mentalray we have 2 choices first is a Dell M1000e blade enclosure with 16 X m610 blades each blade has
2 X Xeon x5690 and 96 GB RAM all for $35K (used system)
the second choice is Supermicro high density enclosure with 8 X servers each server has 2 X Xeon E5 2670 v3 and 96 GB RAM all for $46K (new system)
is the Xeon E5 system will give more performance worth the extra cost or both systems will give the same performance as we comparing 32 x processors to just 16 E5 processors.
Thank you for advice in advance.
