I have 2 render servers each with 2 Xeon 5345's (quadcores) on XPx64 running Max 9 (32 bit) and Vray 1.5 - no issues.

[mikeh]

any reason for not running 64 bit max 9?

My main workstation is still 32 bit so I kept the farm at 32 bit as well but since the OS is x64 I can easily upgrade it to Max9 64bit when the time comes.

dual xeon 53#5 quads, max 9 64bit. About 40 machines total, no issues at all.

that says it all i guess.

running 2 x xeon X5355 quad here works like butter.
anyone knows if there're any issues to mix OS 64 and 32 in a farm by the way?
