Get back to that high paying job Jim!
Morning all. I am making my computer work hard. Putting it through the wringer. We finally had a chance to fly some projects yesterday. The program we run to make the final product orthophoto is called Pix4D Pro. It pegs out all 8 cores on the CPU, uses all 32 gig of ram and hammers on the hard drive reading and writing. My computer handles all that but I built it just as a home computer for my email. Way overbuilt for that but now it needs a SSD hard drive and a real video card.
The video card I want is the GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1080 DirectX 12 GV-N1080WF3OC 8GB 256-Bit for just over $500. It can display a maximum resolution of 7689x4320 which is way higher than my 4K monitor can display. The main thing is it has 2,560 CUDA cores and that is what helps make the program process the images faster.
The program even supports dual video cards but one will help a ton.
Oh well, maybe after we get paid for this project I can order one. Maybe someday we can stop spending money and get a paycheck.
