Benchmark test new build

[OPEN_RANGE]

I am close to having my new build done. Win 10 pro, 10 core i7 6950, 64 gig ram, geforce1080, GeForce 1060, SSD, ASUS X99-Deluxe MB.

Any suggestions on what to use for benchmarking? Seeking advice on benchmarking general system and also a max/ vray scene. Using Max 2017 and. Ray 3.5

We'll be releasing our own benchmarking tool in a couple of days (CPU and GPU) so hopefully you'll be able to use that.

Supa coooooool

On a side note 10core I7 is massive waste of money... send it back if u can.

Vlado,

That sounds great and timing is very fortunate. Where should I look for the announcement? On this forum?

Darius's - what CPU would you recommend? A dual Xeon build was beyond my budget.

New AMD cpus are about 10-20% slower than the 10core intel at 1/3 of price or less... I would suggest getting AMD at this moment. Or waiting for Intel to release new cpus to counter AMD.

Yes, we'll post the benchmark beta info on the forum here.

Thank you mr. vlado

Thanks for your reply Dariusz. That's classic with specing and getting new computer and other tech stuff. As soon as you finalize your desicion and buy....something better and cheaper is suddenly available. I already have the i7 installled and just now getting win 10 installed. I think too late to return. Plus not sure the MB I have would take an AMD CPU.

I am sending back the GTX 1080 that is not installed and is new/unused. Going to replace it with the just out GTX 1080 ti.

Yeah usually when you read in news that Intel or AMD is releasing stuff you should hold up with any purchases. I would return it all if its within 14-21 days.

Yeah u need different motherboard, not even sure if ram would work.

The bottom line is that for 1 Intel CPU, you can pretty much buy AMD Workstation - almost I would imagine. Soo...
