Absolutely, that's a significant enhancement. No need to pay for it?

Absolutely, go for it. X99 provides significantly more value, especially with its additional cores and threads. For 3D rendering, the extra cores will make a big difference. Keep in mind it uses DDR4 memory, so your existing RAM won't work. It also supports certain Xeon CPUs and ECC memory, giving you more flexibility for future upgrades compared to the 4930K. Plus, it offers many more PCIe lanes, allowing you to add another GPU or various add-in cards without worrying about lane sharing.

It seems the main concern is the cost of the upgrade. You think it's worth it because it offers a significant improvement over your existing setup.

You should anticipate roughly a 20% boost in performance for the tasks mentioned. Who would you like to support?

If you don’t have to pay then it’s worth it.
