So i'm at the point where im thinking about ditching some components and rebuilding in small phases. I would like to get rid of all my drives except my primary and possibly a few Raptor drives (for caching + rendering) and add a G-Tech G-SPEED Studio XL 24TB solution. (My on-board Marvell setup is starting to fail on my main assets volume. This will take all the raid responsibilities away from my mobo.
I am also considering swapping all my GPUs for a more modern stable configuration. Based on my current setup what do you think would be comparable? I am in need for large renders from AE and exports from Premiere.
This has become a love/hate thing over the last 3 years. Great components, good concepts but stability and maintenance has been overwhelming. Sometimes when I render I see all my cores activity thru the resource monitor but they never go over 50-60%. Seems like a waste of power.
