My build is more of a workstation than a render machine. I still use render farms for final outputs.
To save a bit of cash I've been thinking about doing to do low-res draft renders overnight, but I'm scared of the overusing my machine. I hope to be using it as a workstation for a few years and am concerned about the wear-tear that 24-48h of rendering per week would have on it.
Is there a way to run the CPU at 70% instead of 100% overnight? Are my fears of over-using my machine even founded?
Hardware: Intel Core I9-9900K with be quiet! Dark Rock 4 and Asus WS Z390 PRO (Arnold CPU renders)
