Total that got cut of there was £3,309. Which to be fair given what it allows me to do now will mean it should pay for itself within a couple of years worst case.
Hey all, thanks for all your replies to my previous post about the beefy machine for test renders, i am delighted to say i have gone ahead and ordered the machine after switching the gpu to a 4080 super, and getting a slighty better power supply.
I have also decided to go ahead and double the RAM to 192GB while they are still builing it. But i am getting concerned about cold boots and memory training.
How often does memory training happen? Is it every cold boot? Every manual reset?
The machine will be crashing alot, its just the nature of pushing them hard, and i dont want to be stuck waiting with that horrible feeling of if it will ever even boot at all, the next time i push the render quality a little too high in 3DSMax.
Would greatly appreciate some feedback on this from someone with experience of machines that have alot of RAM.
Just did a quick search. 3DSMax loves ram apparently. May actually be beneficial to get more ram. I’ve never used it just Fusion.
Might be worth checking… Plz don’t hate me… Reddit
Haha i know, ive been using it since v2.0 and i dont think i have ever had a machine that wasnt actually a server where it really had enough ram, as much i love to hate on it though, its really amazing software, and being able to watch it grow for so long and by so much has been quite the trip, as well as an honor.
