Hi everyone!
Some times ago I told you that I wanted to renew my hardware config, and finally I did it :)
For what I'm experiencing in first week of usage it seems a STUNNING AND BLAZING FAST PC!!!
By now I only have to solve some cpu overheat issue due to a wrong thermal paste, but I hope to fix this issue next week.
So... the spec s:
Cases Cooler Master ATX MasterBox 5 Tower
Mb Intel 1151 MSI Z270 SLI PLUS Chipset Z270
Cpu Intel Core i7-7700K (4,20Ghz/4,50Ghz)
2x16 Memory D4 3000 32GB C15 Corsair Ven K2
EVGA SuperNOVA 750 G3, 80 Plus Gold 750W, Fully Modular
SD SAMSUNG 960 EVO NVMe SSD, PCIe 3.0 M.2 Typ 2280 - 500 GB
HDD int. 3,5 2TB Seagate Barracuda
Corsair Hydro H100i V2
ASUS PCE-AC55BT DUAL BAND WIRELESS AC-1200
And last but not least...Svga MSI GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Armor 11G OC
This is a rough visual benchmark recorded with my smartphone. I'm sorry for the very coarse video quality :)

I simply downloaded the 3dm file contained into this package :
https://grabcad.com/library/audi-r8-139
An Audi car made by Mauro Marin.
I then loaded the 3dm model into Moi, Rhino V5 and Rhino V6 WIP to roughly test the viewport performance using different viewing mode.
All tests are made on a very poor FullHD monitor.
The results are absolutely stunning above all when I use the Thea Render realtime GPU engine.
I'm also testing this new HW config with Unity, Blender and Thea Render stand alone and the performance I'm measuring are totally phenomenal!!!
For what I'm experiencing also with the very powerful Rhino, don't believe to anyone who says that you have to buy a Quadro card to have good performance with Rhino.
If all you want to do is rendering and not heavy scientific or engineering calculation, then the new Gtx Pascal 1080 Ti is really a BEAST!!!
And also consider that even the newest Pascal Quadro cards like P5000 or P6000 have THE SAME, I repeat, THE SAME FP64 performance of Gtx 1080 Ti,
that is 1/32 of FP32 performance.
And needless to say, with the 1080 Ti, Moi's performance are absolutely stunning even if you use a heavy "5 degree" mesh angle.
See you.
