V-Ray GPU Rendering Platform Comparison: Skylake X, Xeon W, and Threadripper
This article looks at several motherboard chipsets, including X299 and X399, comparing how well they handle performance scaling across multiple GPUs in V-Ray 3.57.01.
X299 vs X99: What is the Difference?
With the release of the first Skylake-X and Kaby Lake-X CPUs, Intel has also launched the new X299 chipset. But what makes it different from the old X99 chipset?
Z270, H270, Q270, Q250, B250 – What is the Difference?
Alongside the launch of Intel’s new consumer Kaby Lake CPUs, there is also a whole new line of motherboard chipsets available. These six chipsets are divided into two separate categories: consumer and business. In this article, we will examine the features of each of the new chipsets to help you determine which is right for you.
Z270 vs Z170: What is the Difference?
With the release of the first Kaby Lake CPUs, Intel has also launched the new Z270 chipset. Unlike some previous launches, where Intel releases all the new chipsets and CPUs at the same time, this time only the top chipset and unlocked (K-series) CPUs will be available at launch.
Z170, H170, H110, B170, Q150, Q170 – What is the Difference?
With the rolling launch of Intel’s new consumer Skylake-S CPUs complete, there is also a whole new line of motherboard chipsets available. These six chipsets are divided into two separate categories: consumer and business. In this article, we will examine the features of each of the new chipsets to help you determine which is right for you.
Z170 vs Z97: What is the Difference?
With the release of the first Skylake-S CPUs, Intel has also launched the new Z170 chipset. Unlike previous launches where Intel releases all the new chipsets and CPUs at the same time, this time only the top chipset and unlocked (K-series) CPUs will be available at launch.
X79 vs X99: What is new in X99 and Haswell-E
The X99 chipset is a major improvement over X79 adding native USB 3.0 support, more SATA 6Gb/s ports, DDR4 support, and plenty of other little updates. Haswell-E also adds a lot of improvements, but has an overall drop in core frequency that makes it not as clearly better than Ivy Bridge-E.
Z97 vs H97 – What is the Difference?
The Z97 and H97 chipset have recently been added to Intel’s line of chipsets, replacing the previous Z87 and H87 chipsets. In this article we will take a look at the specifications for the Z97 and H97 chipsets to see what differences there are between them.
