Hello,
at work we have:
i7-8700, 16GB 2660MHZ RAM, 512GB SSD, Quadro P1000 and WIN10 64bit.
We use these maschines for 2D drawings mostly Building Floor Plants.
Thanks to Corona, I've recently had to work from home. And there I have:
Ryzen 5 2600x, 16GB 3200MHZ, 512GB SSD, RX 5700 XT and also WIN10 64bit.
The Ryzen system runs much smoother, even though it is actually a gaming computer and no workstation. While switching between drawings and layouts I have microstuttering at pan&zoom, overall longer loading times and mouse-lag after switching back from layout to modell with the i7 but not with the Ryzen. Working with larger Files is finally fun again.
I am now annoyed that I had given our admin the buy-recommendation for the i7 CPUs. On paper, the i7 8700 outperforms the 2600x by 12% in total performance, which is strange. Practice speaks a different language.
E: I forgot to mention that it is very important for Ryzen CPUs that your RAM is set to the correct MHZ in BIOS. But not via the XMP-Profile. Set it manually to the correct MHZ. XMP Profile causes crashes. I had to learn it the hard way.
