Hey,
as the title states, I am looking for the best options for my Audio (DAW) Build. I am torn between the I7 7700K or the Zen 1800X. I will be hammering the CPU in traditional DAW ways, with loads of VST plugins and synths being used.
Histrionically DAWs like fast cores instead of multi, but they are slowly making the most of the multi cpus. That being said, some of the DAWs are not there yet and seem a way off.
I want this build to last a few years so want to make sure its right. I have read and read discussions, but nothing seems to be concrete in the audio world to if Zen is going to be a benefit.
The I7 build it approx £150 cheaper also, but that wouldn't stop me going with AMD. No gaming will be done on this.
Does anyone have any input of this.
Thanks.
Mike
