I'm looking to put together a workstation setup for Maya, Nuke, and video editing, will be running a quadro K4200 GPU.
Need some help deciding if I would be better off with a dual E5-2620 V3 or i7 5960X (or another CPU configuration?). The costs are about the same from what I've seen. thanks |

My guess would be the dual XEON would be faster for multi-threaded applications.
Dual XEON vs. i7 CPU: 12 cores @ 2.4-3.2 GHz vs. 8 cores @ 3-3.5 GHz Memory: 8 Memory channels @ 1866 MHz vs 4 Memory channels @ 2133 MHz Cache: 2*15 MB vs 1*20 MB |
