Hi guys,
I built my first workstation back in 2017 and after a month of enduring Windows I decided to convert it into a customac. This forum and people here were incredibly helpful and i couldn't have done it without your help. The workstation served me well over the years but it maxed out its OS at Sierra 10.12. The newer version of macOS and the newer version of Resolve require a different architecture and I am a bit lost as to what I need to upgrade. My gut feeling points to the motherboard, CPU and the GPUs but I have no clue what to choose for a 4K workflow and not break my bank due to upgrade. Ideally I'd like to keep the same performance as now, just with the ability to run the latest os and Resolve.
Any recommendations would be most helpful.
My current setup:
2x NVidia EVGA 8G GTX1080 SC V2
4x 16GB Ram
Rampage V Extreme motherboard
Intel Core i7 6950X
Corsair H80i V2 CPU Cooler
