Benchmark 2.0

[m98custom1212]

Okay, Newegg has the 6700K for $370 now.  Also it looks like it can handle 64GB RAM, which might make it worth it.

 Thought it couldn't handle 64gb????????!!!!!!!

 

 

I knew it was but you didn't believe me 

[Matthew Hajicek - Singularity]

I thought it couldn't too.  Here's what the specs say now:

 

 

 

Max Memory Size (dependent on memory type) 64 GB

Also:

 

 

 

For those who always felt the 32GB of maximum RAM in the mainstream Haswell-based desktops was a limitation, Skylake’s use of DDR4 means you can get 64GB of RAM into your rig without having to step up to a pricier Haswell-E system.

 

-http://www.pcworld.com/article/2955293/hardware/skylake-review-intels-6th-gen-cpu-arrives-with-nice-presents-for-gamers-and-enthusiasts.html

 

So it looks like 32 in DDR3 or 64 in DDR4.

Big improvement for me.

Im having trouble finding the Benchmark file I cant get the Benchmark 2.0 link to open and same goes for the FTP link

any help would be much appreciated

 

Thanks Kyle.

Looking at a new Dell 5810 Precision desktop

 

XEON E5-1630 v3 (4C, 3.7 GHz, Turbo HT, 10M, 140W)

Quatro M5000

32GB (8x4GB) 2133MHz DDR4 RDIMM ECC

512GB SS drive

 

$4664

 

Heavy surfacing and 5axis machining.

 

I've been out of the loop with hardware a bit too long....so I'm rusty (read clueless) ...Are those good specs as of today? Any suggestions?

 

TIA!

Looks pretty good to me. kinda pricy but should do well out of the box (your time is worth $). jus sayin instead of custom build.

Dells have been pretty solid in my experience, good cooling and power supply etc.

Benchmark 2.0

 

 

 

the link is broken, is there another place to download the Benchmark file?

[stephanezx]

I just bought a new pc 7810  Xeon E5-2630-V3 2.4GHZ,

32G RAM,

NVIDIA K2200,

SSD 240.

I would like to test it but the links to download is no longer good.

I test the program in my pc but I'm not sure I did not taint over the years.

8 minutes I find it a little big because if I look at the others who have smaller machine than me and that they are better times

not sure if this is good or not to be honest.  This chip kills in multi-thread, when its actually using all the threads.  i never got above 11% utilization on the second half of the run

how do you do 3 at one time?  id like to try it myself! 

[Matthew Hajicek - Singularity]

Have three instances of Mastercam open at once doing the same thing.

well i guess that was simple enough.  i never tried that, seeing as how i have one license and all.

Further proof that people are wasting money on high end Xeon cpus for Mastercam perhaps? That's a $2,100 processor.

You can open as many windows as you want.

yeah that's sad, my HP laptop ran 5:40 but I want Motorsports-X's box coming in at 4:09 seconds

 

cheers!

3 finished simultaneously in 5:15

 

I guess not to shabby

 

Im glad I didnt spend the extra money on the m4000 ... the m2000 is plenty of gpu.  it barely breaks a sweat. 

 

 

by the way... this PC with a $400 4k monintor,   windows 10,  and a $200 UPS  cost me under $3500.  a boxx or dell machine would cost over 5k for this performance level. 

 

Now that I have done it once, I think i could probably put something together with very close to the same performance for under $2800

 

all parts are warrantied.  included the CPU and oc doesnt void it.

in his case, i see that he is using a grid driver.. maybe xeon is required for grid?  I dont know. I havent be able to get much info about it.

 

That said, thats still not a great choice of Xeon for mastercam.  They have some xeons that perform as well as an i7.  But you can over clock the i7

[HateWhatOwnsYou]

Pretty sure he was just referring to regenerating all 3 paths at the same time vs one at a time.

 

 

In the next week or so I should have my new computer up and running.

 

[jlw™]

It's pretty simple to regen one or as many as you want at once so I assumed he meant the same non multithread path x3 therefore 3x Windows.
