huebervynicki Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Hi, i am buying new hardware and software for my office. I have for everything (hardware + software) budget about 22,5-25 $. I am thinking again and again how to spend this money in the best way. I have a list of things which are essential: HARDWARE: workstation x1 render node x? peripherals (monitor x1/x2, mice, keybaord, mousepad) external storage network: switch + cables SOFTWARE: Widnows x? AutoCAD LT x1 3ds Max Design x1 Vray x? Photoshop x1 I am thinking that proportion between hardware and software looks like this: hardware 14,5k-18k software 8k-10k $ Three main problems: Buying workstation (x1) based on: Haswell-E Core i7 E 8 core or Haswell-EP 2x Xeon E5-26xx v3 10core Buying render nodes (x?) based on: Haswell Core i7 4790K 4,0 GHz or (if this cpu i would buy 10-6 like this PCs) Haswell-E Core i7 E 6/8 core or (if this cpu i would buy 7-4 like this PCs) Haswell-EP 2x Xeon E5-26xx v3 10/14 core (if this cpu i would buy 1 like this PC) Buying super accuracy color monitor (eizo) or bigger screen (4k) or buy two but worst (2x30, 2x27 e.g. Dell) What do You think, what are Your advices?
