What are the actual specs of the pc you got? Do you have a gpu?i see what you did there.
In a lot of the rendering tests and benchmarks gpu will make a huge difference compared to a faster processor with no gpu.
Also it doesn’t really seem to matter which gpu, just that you have one.
The cuts in rendering time drop in half with a gpu and then by minuscule amounts with faster gpu’s
I paid 85 bucks for a barely used 1050 ti locally. Something like that or even an older cheaper card in the 40-50.00 range will give you more bang for your buck than a machine with a newer processor.
I’ve done a shit ton of research on this. Also if you want the card more specifically for rendering , don’t shy away from amd gpu’s like the older rx 7850’s etc. redeons are typically better at rendering than invidias that shine more in pure gaming benchmarks.
