Yeah, looking at the benches -- I'm not really impressed with the 1060. I think Nvidia really overhyped this one. Add the barely adequate amount of VRAM -- I gotta say the RX 480 is the wiser purchase.
Well, 16GB video cards are starting to show up a lot now in industry workstations. But FirePro's aren't particularly cheap. The video cards generally sell for around $3,000 by itself.
Very good points. I haven't tested Radeon cards under Adobe in about a year -- so it is good to hear that they have improved. I will say this, when I last tested the Mercury Playback Engine using Catalyst drivers -- OpenCL acceleration was no faster than CPU only rendering in Premiere CC. In...
It is, exactly that. But Cinebench is generally an academic discussion -- because 95% of the video editors that I've worked with never touch Cinema 4D. It's largely a niche program for a small group of experts.
You guys are once again totally missing the point.
He's talking about Premiere Pro -- and that expensive Xeon setup (when factoring in the motherboard) is an overpriced and largely incremental improvement over an FX-8320e under the best of circumstances in Adobe Suite.
All his money should...
I'll chime in on this one.
If you live near a Micro Center -- the AM3+ bundles are still pretty damn compelling. For About $100, you can get a brand new FX-6300 with motherboard. For $120, you can pick up an FX-8320E with motherboard.
Is the platform dated? Sure. But, we are talking...
Set up to fail? Newegg has nearly sold out (and several other vendors) through there entire stock of them -- and I know the supply is excellent.
The card is the king of value -- nothing can touch its performance for $200. And it is ridiculous that people are comparing it to high end...
Said by the guy who is probably on the Nvidia payroll -- because of all the lies and BS he spreads on this forum.
So tell me o' brilliant one, which Nvidia card that is priced at $199 NEW can power my Oculus Rift? Crickets, yet again.

Agreed. As someone that owned both -- I will admit that the Vishera is a little mediocre at base clock. But start overclocking and Thuban starts to lag pretty much across the board.
It's probably all a moot point at this late date -- looking at the architecture for Zen..... Zen will...
Well as an owner of a 4790K and 6700K -- it's usually a draw in nearly everything. Under just about every game, there is very little difference in performance :( There are a few things like Cinebench, where the 6700K
does edge out the 4790K.... But the advantage is usually never worth...
OpenCL is definitely a mixed bag even under Vegas / MS13. It is generally better than CPU only (unlike under Adobe), but often only a modest improvement.
I'd recommend reading this article:

Nvidia cards can also process OpenCL, just...
Depends on the business. A few years back, the company I worked for deployed liquid cooled workstations with overclocked i7 3960x for running SolidWorks. Overclocking is very uncommon, though -- that's the only time I saw it in 20 years.
Probably Awful, OpenCL acceleration is absolutely terrible right now.
Haven't found benchmarks specifically for HD530 -- but OpenCL is usually slower than Software Only mode even using high end graphics cards. They have a long way to go for OpenCL optimizations. Right now, Cuda Cores is the...
Just another excuse -- why would it even matter when comparing 2 unlocked chips? But thanks for another amazing observation.
It's a pretty absurd argument -- because OEM's don't even standardize machines with the same CPU. Identical CPU's will be configured in single channel and dual...
