Hey everyone...
so so here is a quick question that I would like some first hand advice on...
I am looking to build a mini render farm in my editing suite.
My biggest question is: which has the greatest impact on render time and rendering "power", CPU or GPU?
Would I be better off with a half dozen rack mount machines with powerful processors and many cores, but have limited GPU, or, would I be better off with two or three machines with powerful processing but high end graphics cards (6-12gb)? Which makes the greatest difference, processing power and core count or GPU?
in today's marketplace, it's really easy and affordable to buy multiple rack mount servers with a ton of ram and a lot of processing power/cores. But building machines with high end GPUs is still costly.
where am I better off -- more machines, which means more cores and more ram, or less machines with high end GPU cards?
software wise, I use premiere and after effects the most, and occasionally cinema4d and 3dsMax.
thanks everyone!!!
