performance difference in i7 3770k and AMD Fx8350 (3dsmax)

[nitinsharma]

hi,

 

i am new to this forum. so please forgive me if i am asking a question which have been asked earlier.

i have recently started learning 3dsmax design and so i need to upgrade my computer.

my recent hardware is :

phenom 965 BE oced to 3.8ghz for 24/7 use

mobo - MSI 790fx gd70

16gb gskill ripjaws

noctua nh d-14

corsair 128gb ssd

gtx 480 GPU

 

 

i am planing to upgrade the above setup to piledriver fx8350 or i7 3770k.

i have read a lot of reviews and performance of fx8350 in 3dsmax is comparable to corei7 3770k. i know i7 is faster but i would like to know exact how much performance hit i will get if i go for i7.

 

 

for example if i render in mental ray and i get my frame in 30minutes on i7 3770k

i think it will take max 25minutes for fx8350 to render the same frame.

 

if this is the case then i think i should go with 8350 and save some money and can buy a quadro card in near future.

 

and i will oc FX8350 to 4.8ghz for 24/7 use.

so please enlighten me on this issue.

Sorry for my bad english.

 

Thanks
