Very simply, I need to upgrade my DAW and I don’t understeand what kind of processor is better for my work… I’ve Cubase 8.5.30 Pro, Windows 10 Pro x64, Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 audio interface and I work (for now) only with midi, using Vienna Symphonic Library vst (actually I’m using Vienna Special Bundle 1 + plus). So, I’m an orchestral composer for videogames (or rather, I try to be ahahahah), and I looking for Vienna Dimension Strings, Brass ecc… Is better a multicore processor like 6800k (6 core) or a quadcore processor like 7700k with more core frequency ? And why?
Oh! My budget is around 500€, and I’m open to other proposals (actually I’ve the i7 4790)
Ohh, really good! So, the 7700k is the right choice or there are some processor better than it at the same price? For example, what about the AMD Ryzen series?
Ohhh, I’ve understeand… So, now really I don’t know wich CPU is better for my work on Cubase now, really, I’m so confused… Please help me about that question
So, I thank you all guys for your support, and at the end I think that I will go on the 6800K, cause I saw that chipset x99 (socket 2011-v3) have 8 RAM slots and in the future I can upgrade with other performing CPU (likes 6900k, 5960x, 6950x) cause they have the same socket!
