Cpu for audio production Pc#

If you were to go threadripper, then you would be paying for features>performance, given that even the cheapest X399 boards are a pretty penny, and you'd need a strong CPU cooler to keep it at bay. The 1900X is a bit of an odd one, given the 2700X outperforms it in nearly every category. I'm a bit curious as to why you haven't looked into the new 2700X CPU from AMD. I want to make the best choice available and I am willing to take the extra steps in order to do so. That's it, thank you for sparing your time and sorry for my possible ignorance on something. I currently own an Alienware 15 R2 with a i7 6700HQ and 8GB RAM that can't really take the work load, I also don't know much about clock speed and socket types, and I never overclocked so I probably won't. Having said that all I know is theory and not real world performance, so I am a bit unsure if these CPUs will be way powerfull or not. even if it's a bit overkill right now I feel like it'll pay off in the future as my games and projects get heavier. doesn't have 8 cores as the Threadripper but has better single thread performance (2705>2057) and better overall rating (15989>15398) according to ģ. Getting the Ryzen will likely get a bit pricey overall but I can't say for sure as I haven't researched the other components yet Ģ.

it fits nicely in my budget as I want to spend around R$7.500,00 (~U$1800,00 I believe) on all PC parts. I'll also use this computer for editing videos.Īfter researching some models I settled on the i7 8700K/ Ryzen 1900X and between both picked the i7 8700K because:ġ. I'd like to add that this PC will also be used for gaming (mainly Dota 2 and Isurgency: Sadstorm) in a 27' 1440p monitor that has not been chosen yet, but this is a secondary thing and I don't care much about great fps>ultra settings>tier 1 games as I don't even play them. I'll produce, mix and master on this build and I use heavy plugins/VSTs, but don't really use a lot of samplers (although I might use more in the future).Īccording to Image-Line you should pick something that has between 4 and 8 cores and, since some tasks cannot be multi-threaded, you should prefer a CPU with higher single core performance. In order to do so I ask for your guidance. Hello everyone! I'm building a new PC mainly for music production in FL Studio and am deciding the CPU first.
