Trying to build rendering machine.

jjsalang · July 2nd, 2008

Hi, I'm planning to build rendering machine.

I use 3Ds Max. I'm in architectural visualization field.

I'm just new to build render machine. I don't know what I need to get.

This will be for only rendering.

I think I'm gonna go with quad core processor Q6600

and 4 gb memory and mother board.

I want to build it as blade instead of buying another big case.

I'm planning to build render machine later on.

I'm trying to keep my budget under $800/

Do you have any idea what kind of case I need to get?

Any idea will help me a lot.

I'm sorry for my poor English.

A 1U rackmount case. You'll need to research what your vendor can provide. Also keep in mind that when making a rackmount you need to consider the size of the parts very carefully as well as the cooling (which is why people usually buy these from vendors instead of building them).
