art3mis Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Have a 1 year old i7 6900 and have been reading reviews of the newer Skylake i9 CPU's. Anyone have one of these? Are there noticeable benchmark improvements for Mantra renders (and sims in general) over say, the i7s? Wondering if I should upgrade....

malexander Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Unless you're going to jump to one of the really high core count i9s, I would say stick with your 6900. The IPC hasn't changed enough between the two to warrant an upgrade, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
