I'm a system builder at heart and have been for over 15 years.
I'm looking to order or assemble my new Workstation.
Dell has a T5810 workstation, and here is how I've configured it.
Xeon 1680 V3 8 core unlocked CPU.
C612 motherboard
32gb of ECC ddr4 memory
Nvidia Quadro P5000 "GTX1080" only better! With double memory!
With the 35% off I can get this system for $3,400 bucks shipped. The GPU alone cost $2,500 on Newegg! And the CPU used goes for about $1,200.
This will be my new encoding, auto cad rig.
I cannot build one for cheaper.
The 1680 V3 is a unlocked CPU, it's faster than a 5960X and utilises a base clock of 3.2Ghz. but since the OEM motherboard does not allow multiplier tweaking in the BIOS, I mine as well get the 1680V4 for the same price?
Or should I just get a 1660 V3? And save even more money?
I could also get a 2687W V4.
I'll be doing mostly encoding, and video editing with Sony Vegas pro. The P5000 will come in handy with its huge 16GB memory buffer creating my own texture packs for games. And using auto cad.
