SUCCESS! mostly.. i literally cant thank you enough for this guide! The only issue i have so far is that the audio option you selected, Optional EFI Bootloader Support, isn't even on the list?
4 way SLI is not important for GPU rendering, it doesnt require it (not entirely sure about GPU simulation though?), but it seems like a safe option to have for future proofing the system, plus ill run a windows partition. I will post my build as i go, got the parts arriving next week... then i...
Ah thanks! I did look at that and yeah that would work. I figured though, that if I plan to add two more identical GPU's, it would be more effective to just get a PSU that could handle that now, instead of having to also buy a new one? So it's more an expandability thing.
Hey, Im about to pull the trigger on this 3D, design and video production rig.
Some reassurance would be great, You think this will work?
Motherboard: Asus X99-E WS/USB 3.1
CPU: Intel Core i7-5930K Processor (3.70GHz, 6 core, 15m Cache)
Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 64GB (8x8GB) DDR4 2400MHz...
Ok, so thanks to trs96's help i have rethought my build and here is what im looking at to get my build up and running.
X99-E WS/USB 3.1 Motherboard
Intel Core i7-5930k CPU
G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 32GB (2x16GB, room for expansion to 64) RAM
Samsung 850 Pro 500GB SSD
Carbide Series Air 540 Case...
I see, so if i switch to the X99 platform, instead of jumping into this Z170 malarky, i would have more options for expandability when it comes to getting the most out of my graphics cards? So i can simply add more that run at full capability instead of having to upgrade what i have? in which...
First off, thanks for you reply much appreciated.
After reading through some of the forums and the internet I seem to get conflicting evidence, this article http://tomglimps.com/value-based-multi-gpu-build-for-octane-render/ seems to suggest the opposite. That just buying the most expensive...
