treedx Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 This, So much difference between these two? Will you notice those two cores for almost 400eu more? thx! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atom Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 (edited) Yes, no, maybe. http://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i7-6900K-vs-Intel-Core-i7-6800K/3605vs3607 I would buy the cheaper CPU and take the extra money and buy a GPU and a Redshift/Octane license if your goal is to seek faster rendering.

malexander Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 When you're simming or rendering, you'll notice those extra two cores. If you do that a lot, 400eu will pay for itself in a short fraction of the CPU's lifetime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlino Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Why not a Ryzen? With that price difference (and same performance) you can buy a top GPU. The downside is that you have a limit of "only" 64GB of RAM and the CPU and system are fresh, so I can't talk about stability... Anyone has experience with them?
