Build Evolution - Davinci Resolve 6k BRAW
Posted: Thu Jan 28, 2021 4:59 pmHi !
I recently started to edit 6k RAW footage (From the BMPCC 6K) and even if the playback was running smoothly, I realized when using fusion (only texts animations...) that I was asking too much to my pc.
Here is my actual build :
Motherboard : MSI X470 Gaming Plus
CPU : Ryzen 7 2700X (Cooler : Noctua NH D15)
GPU : MSI GTX 1080 Armor OC
RAM : Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2x8) 3000Mhz CL15
SSD : Samsung 970 EVO Plus 250GB NVME
HDD : WD 1TB + TOSHIBA 2TB (Both 7200)
PSU : Seasonic Prime Ultra 750W Platinum
As I am editing several types of projects (Short/feature length, fiction, documentary, video-clips...) I searched for "advised builds" related to my needs and I ended up choosing to change :
- Both of my HDDs for 1 SSD of 4TB (Samsung 870 EVO 4TB)
- My 16GB 3000Mhz RAM for 64GB in 4x16GB
And so I have to main questions :
- On the one hand, i chose this RAM reference : F4-3466C16Q-64GTZKK (G.Skill 3466Mhz CL16 - Hynix C-Die), it was impossible for me to boot above 3066Mhz, and I did not detect any improvement in the use of Resolve (the graphic card being probably involved?).
So, would it make more sense to get a new motherboard with 2x32 sticks to take advantage of the dual channel?
Or simply to turn to 32Gb in 2x16 (CL14 if it can bring a performance gain) if i can't notice the gap between 32GB and 64GB ? (Knowing that I don't use a lot of softwares in multitasking, Photoshop and possibly Premiere Pro sometimes)
My goal being to take futureproof ram that would still perform well with a ryzen 7 5800x.
- On the other hand, do you think that other components should be changed in priority before these?
A big thank in advance for your help !
