I am looking for some advice regarding an upgrade of CPU’s I am considering to do.
Iam using a workstation for graphical and video applications. It’s got an ASUS Z10PE-D8 WS motherboard with two Intel 2011-3 sockets, currently equipped with 2x Intel Xeon E5-2680 V4 CPUs, along with 128GB RDIMM DDR4 2133.
Especially for Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro, this unit is still somewhat too slow for intensive professional graphics and rendering.
Having noticed that Xeon CPUs for the aging 2011-3 socket have sharply dropped in price, it might be sensible to consider replacing the current ones.
I noticed how these applications favour a higher clock speed to a higher core number.
Could anyone suggest which would be my best option as replacement CPUs?
Thanks for reading me!
