So, I have some questions regarding a modeling and rendering station I’ve been trying to plan if the parts ever become available.
So, my budget is $5000 plus if necessary. I want a
Ryzen 5950x
An RTX 3090 from MSI preferably.
A motherboard that can hold two 3090s if I want to get a second one in the future. Which AM4 board has enough bandwidth for two cards?
128 Gigs of RAM for high res models and Houdini sims. I’m already thinking about the G Skill ram as it has nice speed and low cl.
The issues I am seeing. I have been looking for a motherboard with Max bandwidth for multiple slots but the place I go to keeps telling me only Threadripper motherboards have maximum bandwidth for more than one GPU.
I also read online that some people are having issues with one large power supply distributing properly between two 3090s, and that it’s better to have two power supplies, but my store tells me two power supplies will cause stability issues when it comes to power spikes.
