3900x vs 3950x for Rendering
I haven’t found any benchmarks for a 240 AIO, so I can’t offer much insight. From my experience, a D15 and U12A perform well. If you’re not using PBO, it should work fine. You’d lose some margin for boosting around 85°C. I tried poor cooling on a 3970X with a 120mm AIO and noticed performance dropped significantly when things got hot. Under heavy load, it stuck at 3.4GHz instead of its normal speed to maintain temperature control.
@Den-Fi You're curious about 3DSmax compatibility? I'm checking what factors affect performance—CPU, RAM, GPU, or RAM combo. It's freezing sometimes in the material editor, especially with my current setup. I'm also curious about low render times since I don't have strict deadlines, but I definitely don't want freezes while editing or moving heavy objects. My rig has a 6700k processor, 16GB RAM at 2400MHz, and a 970-stick NVMe SSD.
