Show Me Your Rig

First topic message reminder :

post your OWN RIGS here.... low-end or high-end, the most important is, you are the owner.

My dear Jeff, I simply put up an opinion which doesn't suppose to ruffle any feathers from you.

My dear Ronald, no, you didn't annoyed me at all. I don't get easily tick with this kind of conversation. I'm just asking you to give me some links to back up your theory as you mentioned "its all over the web",but it seems your having hard time doing it so.

You even don't need too mention any big names to simply justify your beliefs.

It's not a belief, its a fact and a lot of people are using it.I'm no expert like you so I go with the flow. I think its smart thing to do especially if your not knowledgeable(like me) and your going to spend that amount of money.Same set up as HPZ800 series or Dell7500 series but less expensive
and better specs.

(Well I could simply say, how about the hundred more artists who can produce even better than you which has a lesser
strong rig than yours, think about it)

I don't have to think about it, i know my place in this world and know where to stand but,do you? Think about it...
Well, its good to know only hundreds of them(i thought its more than that)but how about you?I'll simply say,thousands? Think about it again... Not getting any younger ei?. (just kidding)lol!

About the ram, who cares, maximize it for all you want. Lets just hope one of these days you can even reach a
60g's scene to at least get rid the over buying ram guilt trip that we did. (jus' kidding).

I do care and will definitely use it by all means.

Then about the GPU rendering, I admit that I am not an expert on this matter yet but based upon the numerous
claims I read and watched over the net (you can look it over which im sure you had), they say its the way to go.

Now you admit you're not an expert..but hold on,, NOT YET...I'll wait and see when you become one. Katakot takot cguro na insulto ang aabutin namin sayo.I thought I found an expert who can help me or a lot of people yun pala, he just "read and watched over the net" and no real experience.
I'm just hoping bro you don't jump off the bridge to solve your problems cause somebody say, "its the way to go".

Bottomline, I'm just not a fan of expensive processors because the difference in speed is just not that significant.
Instead of having few buckets which cost more, why not have more buckets which cost less - plus you have the benefit of more PC.

So, saan na napunta yung usapang "GPU na ang mabilis ngyon not CPU"? Still waiting for you to send me some links for comparison. Again,same workflow,rendering engine,and primary software.You can take your time but i hope its not in 3 years or so...

I rest my case and apologies sir Ed and Admin for a lengthy discussion.

@ronski- if you have more issues, feel free to send me a personal message. Like what the admin had mentioned,this is not the place for us to discuss this. thank you.

Apologies Mon....

Apologies to you too Jeff.... I don't mind your comments. I still look up to you with your works, let's not swim unto this commotion anymore.. Anyways, I still remember our EB several years back with you and christine the center of our topic

Just whatever bro. just being active again in cgpinoy, its been years you know. lol.... too bad it didnt turned nice the first time. lol



Sorry again guys... Miss u all.

Ah ok.. next rig please!

basta ako nag post ako ng rig ko hehe, naki comment lang ako sa usapan, but anyway show us your rigs! kanya kanya diskarte lang naman yan sa rigs walang mali at walang sayang, everything,every parts every cash you spend to your rigs kahit gaano ka-extreme ang PC mo worth it yan

Hi ron, apology accepted.. I was little bit insulted by the way you commented in the forum. Nagulat ako as I knew you as one of my good friend here in CGP. Hindi ko lang nagustuhan yung manner ng pagkaka bigay mo ng suggestions and I'm expecting a decent reply from you.
But anyway, moving on.

Good to see you back.

Mabuti naman....



Back to topic guys....

once in a while we get brain tickler points raised such as ronski_g's. good point raised but remember guys, whether it's expensive or humble setup, it's just a matter of preference (needs vs. wants, no right or wrong). important is that we are happy with the tools that we use. i prefer tools that can inspire, that i can grow with and not limit my abilities. but whether i can afford it, that would be my deciding factor.

keep posting your cool rigs!

Alright.. back to the ballgame... share ko lang po rig ng laptop ko.......

ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5730 (2gb) video card..
Sagad na sa 8 gig ang RAM eh... and ito lang ang pwede ma-upgrade... 4 gig lang kasi dati....

Kabibili lang last week nang 2 pcs - 4 gig RAM..19.99 pounds each... di ko alam kung napamahal ba or overspent ba for those memory upgrades... heheheh

All in all.. $1,000.00(laptop) + 40 pounds (memory upgrades)... = Php. 42,600.00... whew..... inuuna pa ang DOTA kesa mag review ng tuts for SU+Vray ng mga masters... hheheh... joke...

Here's my 2-mo. old workhorse..  my 5-yr companion was "chugging" for months so i have to retire him.

PROCESSOR: Intel i7 3770 3.40 Ghz
MOBO        : ECS Z77H2-AX Golden Board Edition
RAM          : 16GB Kingston HyperX 2-8GB 
COOLER     : ThermalTake Frio Advanced
PSU          : Corsair TX750M 750watts
STORAGE   : Intel 330 SSD 250GB
               : old HD Western Digital Blue 320GB
GPU          : old INNO3D GeForce 9800GT 1GB
CASE        : Aerocool RS-9 Devil Red

My good 5 yr ol' GPU still rocks! Although may lag sa viewport pag sobrang complex na ng Sketchup file ko, tolerable naman, and umookay pag nirestart ang sketchup. Tested Skyrim on Ultra High Settings kaya pa nya so I guess may time pa mag ipon for a new GPU.. Quadro or 670?  

Gusto ko sana G.Skill Ripjaws for RAM kaso not available, ang laki naman ng difference sa other shops, di pa pwede installment. hehe. And for Mobo din, I was planning to put ASUS P8Z77 V-PRO Thunderbolt kaso out of stock din.

But anyway, contented naman ako sa performance nya ngayon. Hopefully mahigitan ang 5 yrs of service ng old workhorse ko..
