Hi!
I just bought apollo x6 and it seems as it won’t work with my current system: i7 6950x with 10 cores running stable overclocked at 4.3 ghz with 64gb ram and x99 asrock mobo
Is it worth to upgrade to i9 9900k with 8 cores (planning to overclock it to 5ghz) with a gigabyte z390 designare mobo that supports thunderbolt 3? - approx. $1200
OR
Should I invest more and get the i9 9960x with 16 cores (planning to overclock it to 4.5ghz) with ausu x99 prime mobo that support thunderbolt? - approx. $2200
I am running very large hybrid orchestral sessions with a ton of plugins and synths (10 omnispheres, 10 divas, 2 avengers, 20 serums). I am getting all the sample library stuff coming from slave PC running VE PRO 6 (about 2000 instruments)
So yeah, would I benefit more from higher clock speeds with 9900k or with double cores count but lower clock speeds with 9960x?
Money isn’t a problem
Thanks!
Tim
