![]() I am a bit biased even though AMD have slashed prices by $100 I'm still not an AMD fan as I said above so if I consider 8 core CPUs I will stick with Intel and add Skylake X. #Davinci resolve 14.3 studio amazon free#Thanks Spencer - Encouraging news - why did you choose the RX480 vs Nvidia? Are you using the free or paid 14? Other options involve more money and/or waiting on the next generation of CPUs & chipsets. ![]() So yeah, I think the 8700k is more than a great budget build, it's a very solid build that will probably last a while for most home/independent editors. Since I'm not trying to get clickbait views for a video, I won't call it a BEAST, but I'm very pleased with the performance so far.Īs far as PCIE lanes go, the motherboard supplies additional lanes, so there's a decent amount of bandwidth, but you will probably run out if you try to use thunderbolt 3, multiple GPUs, a PCI RAID, and a decklink or something. Also, I haven't been able to get the iGPU to run resolve yet, so don't count on that for now. With an RX580 8gb, it handles 4k UHD clips very comfortably, though as your work gets more complex caching is a must.

Now if that card actually uses PCIe bandwidth or it just provides power, I have no idea.īeing that I would probably want to use a UltraStudio Mini Monitor for monitoring, I'd probably wait to see if another mobo shows up with a built-in Thunderbolt rear panel connection. Many of the others do have a Thunderbolt header on the mobo, but you need a PCIe add-in card to connect to that header. Which comes to my next "issue" with the 8700, there is only one z370 motherboard that has an external Thunderbolt port, and that's an ASUS with the ITX form factor. And if you include an external monitor does that further tax the PCIe lanes, even if the monitor is connected with something like Thunderbolt. ![]() But I honestly don't know if that's true. Now I've heard that with PCIe 3.0, even the most powerful graphics cards are not going to overload PCIe x8. That means one card operating at x16, two operating at x8, or one x8 and two x4. ![]() The one thing that would give me a bit of pause is the number of PCIe lanes, which I believe is 16 total. ![]()
