Hardware advice for a MATLAB oriented PC build

[jamalkoiyess]

Hello PF,
I am considering some options in my upcoming PC build and want to choose the one that performed best in MATLAB. What I mostly do is velocimetry with a big amount of points, image processing, statistical analysis. My options are between 2 CPUs:

• AMD Ryzen 2700 - for the 8 physical cores since MATLAB rarely benefits from virtuals.
• Intel Core i7 8700k - mainly for its universality and optimization along with the good single core performance.

As for the GPUs, I considered the following:

• Nvidia GeForce 1070Ti - for the 2k+ Cuda cores and the OpenGL performance ( from https://gfxbench.com/result.jsp) Along with a good pricing
• Quadro P2000 - I read on some forums that it offered better performance even when the benchmarks were lower.

The build will have 32GB Ram and an SSD

Its hard to say how well it will perform however here's what MATLAB says:

I don't think you said what OS but the above link covers that for all major platforms supported.
