Hi everyone, Have been idle for quite long. Would appriciate some help from this awesome community -
Had given up using my old build as I had moved to MBP. But change at work brings me back to some workstation usage. Have tried to add as much information as I can
In brief -
Usage -
No gaming
Primary - Development - Docker extensively, IDEs, other Dev tools, Lots of tabs in browser
Secondary - Photoshop, KdenLive - edit, render videos, watch videos on net/over NAS
I dont upgrade often. Usually do major upgrades in around ~4years - Except storage/display etc
Help needed -
1. Need help deciding which CPU to get - 7900X3D/7950X/7950X3D
Need a mix of performance and low idle power (considering X3D only due to power consumption). Feel 7950X3D will be overkill but still open to it
2. Do I even need GTX 1070? can I just use GPU? - I might move to 4K display next year
TIA for all the help
