Hello frens,
I’m a VFX/Animator/Designer and I’m looking into building a new box. Primarily using Adobe, Cinema 4D/Redshift, Unreal, Houdini, Davinci, etc.
Money isn’t as much of an object since this is for work and I’m long overdue and have been watching a lot of the youtube videos that ended up bringing me here.
Here’s what I’m thinking so far after some DD:
- AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 5975WX
- ASUS Pro WS WRX80E-SAGE SE
- 2x Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 Founders Edition (Waiting for Oct release. If I can’t snag them, I’ll opt for 3090 TI’s)
- 8x Kingston Premier Series 64GB ECC Registered DDR4 3200 KSM64HAR
- Noctua NH-U14S TR4-SP3 82.52 CFM CPU Cooler (was told to opt out of AIO’s for long term usage)
- Super Flower Leadex 1600W 80+ Titanium
- Fractal Define XL
- 9x 140 case fans (unsure which ones yet)
Problem I’m coming up on from Pangoly and other PSU calculators is showing me that this 1600W may not be enough wattage during peak usage, extended render times.
Would love some recommendations or anyone to chime in here.
Thanks
