![]() ![]() The price difference between the 5820K and the 5960X will get you another 980 Ti. The 5960X is currently the best processor on the X99 chipset, but it won't make IRay render faster. Why no 5960X on the High-Performance LGA 2011-3 build? Is these cases, the price difference represents only the ability to overclock, so unlocked models are not worth it for IRay purposes. The core i5 4690 and i5 6600, however, have the same clockspeed as the unlocked models, the 4690k and 6600k. When buying one of these unlocked processors, consumers are paying for both the higher speed and the ability to overclock, and the higher speed is worth it. You don't have to overclock to take advantage of the higher base clock speed. The i7 4790k and the i7 6700k are unlocked and overclockable, but they're also both significantly faster than the locked versions, the 47, respectively. Why put an unlocked processor meant for overclocking on a motherboard that doesn't support overclocking? ![]() A Solid State Drive for the OS and appsįirst up will be an entry level LGA 1150 build. Large amount of VRAM for the price pointĥ. High number of CUDA cores for the price pointĤ. Amount of RAM is more important than speed of ramģ. High CPU speed is more important than number of coresĢ. When picking these parts, it's my opinion that the following traits are the most important:ġ. Searching for Nvidia-based gaming rigs will give you more options as well. In general, a good gaming rig will make a good IRay rig. ![]() I'm also assuming one already has an OS, so have not included that in the cost of the build.ģ. I am leaving out cases from the lists of components because cases are very personal, prices fluctuate, and people may have their own cases already.Ģ. The three budget levels are $750 (entry level), $1,500 (mid-level), $3,000 (high-performance).ġ. After seeing a lot of simultaneous topics about pc recommendations, I thought it might be helpful to compile a list of IRay-optimized rigs at varying price points, at varying levels of performance, and for 3 different Intel sockets: LGA 1150 (such as Z97), LGA 2011-3 (X99) and LGA 1151 (such as Z170). Nothing against AMD I just don't know anything about their processors or motherboards and therefore can't make any informed recommendations. ![]()
