Hi. I am a little confused about all the different graphics cards, geforce, quadro, tesla etc. on the market and what works the best. I would like to buy a computer which render really fast. I have thought about buying Boxx renderpro’s, but I maybe think it is better for me to buy a strong desktop…

Graphics cards wise max doesn’t really take full advantage of them historically so a good geforce is brilliant for price / performance. A quadro will be a faster card, but can be three times the price which would be better spent on having a second small render node.

I like to buy some good quality computers with a lot CPU power. I have thought about Boxx 8900, Dell T7600, Or HP Z820. So what to prefer if you wan’t speeeeeeeddd… :slight_smile: I can see the prices for 1 renderpro with dual processor is the same as a good desktop computer with dual processor, s…

Yep - one of the posters on here built a computer with a second computer in the same case! So he had a single box for maybe €4000 with two 3930k cpu’s I think? Pretty damn fast :smile:. I’d say a workstation machine with a good geforce, a 3930k, ssd and 32gigs of ram minimum which should be around 1…

I don’t think I am much into building my own machine. I rather prefer paying some more to get a good testet machine with good service.

Denmark. I will try looking for this. Thanks.

I built 4 i7’s with 12Gb of ram each, for about $5,000.00, several years ago. I use these as my render farm

Yes but the space… It takes up to much space in the office… :slight_smile:

what about these ones. Would these be good.? These are small and with i7. Computers, Monitors & Technology Solutions | Dell Ireland

Not enough ram (8 gigs max). For a workstation try www.hardwareversand.de - something like http://lb.hardwareversand.de/Intel/58328/HWV+[X]press+Intel+i7-3770K-N680-16GB%2C+inkl.+Windows+7+Home+Premium+(64-+Bit).article and get them to upgrade it to a 3930k and 32gigs of ram.

Which country do you live in? Any of the manufacturers come with a pretty high price so you might have a smaller custom pc builder nearby that could do something for you!
