Re: CPU midlife crisis what is using all the cores in your pipeline?
What are your system specs? CPU model? GPU? How much RAM? It really depends on the specific app. Things that typically eat a lot of CPU: * Offline, CPU based rendering or baking (Mentalray, xNormal, etc) * Video encoding * Generating simulations If you're doing your baking with a modern, GPU based baker, such as Toolbag,… -
Re: CPU midlife crisis what is using all the cores in your pipeline?
Yeah so basically, when you perform some function in an app, it has a series of jobs it needs to finish. Let's say an action involves 3 jobs. The program splits these up and sends them to 3 cores. Job 1 and 2 take 2ms to finish and job 3 takes 4ms - core 1 & 2 will be in use for 2ms and will then wait on core 3 to finish… -
Re: CPU midlife crisis what is using all the cores in your pipeline?
So far I'm only interested in single core performance for the reasons outlined and I have not looked at AMD at all since the Athlon 64.ZBrush seems to be the only example of a 3D app in this field where more cores translate to better viewport performance. I have it running noticeably quicker with the same scenes on a… -
CPU midlife crisis what is using all the cores in your pipeline?
Hello people :) dont bite me I am new. Can you guys point out specific workloads in your 3D asset pipeline that relies heavy on multi core performance? Because of the new CPU craze thats going on I was wondering if I should get a CPU with more cores, after rethinking my "pipeline" I really have to say I dont know why I… -
Re: CPU midlife crisis what is using all the cores in your pipeline?
Most software can't take make full use of the CPU because the data is not organized in such a way to make it easy to process. There's a slow push away from object-oriented programming towards data-driven programming to help solve this problem.
