Multi-Threading

[Ivan1982]

Try starting DR server and enable DR. Do you see 72 buckets?

You can also try cinebench 15 to test if both processors are working if you get score above 4k both are working.

What is the model of motherboard you have?

Back Burner is showing 32 cores

[glorybound]

It seems that CINBENCHMARCH is using 72 cores.

[glorybound]

Is it a 3DS MAX limitation? I have Windows 10 Pro, however, I read several posts over the past several days that said you don't need more than Pro to see more than one processor. This post implies that it is once again a limitation with 3DS MAX. Is anyone successfully using Windows 10 Pro with 2 processors over 36 cores?

It's a windows limitation but can be accounted for. You can get around it with the following...http://forums.chaosgroup.com/showthr...756#post667756

I have already tried that, but it didn't seem to matter. Also, the thread talks about nightlies, however, that's an old post and I am running the latest V-Ray.

[dlparisi]

You entered it wrong. The variable should be "VRAY_USE_THREAD_AFFINITY" and it's value should be set to "1" (no quotes).

EDIT: It's now included in the stable releases, no nightly required but you do still need to set the variable AFAIK.

[glorybound]

Okay, I see the (no quotes), but I see two sets of quotes. Which set of quotes is omitted?

all the quotes should be omitted

Hello guys,
I'm not sure if I must post this here but I have a core/thread problem. Multithreading is enabled in the BIOS, If i disable it Ihave 6 core and 6 thread in CPU-Z. What does this mean?
Thanks

[priad]

Sorry I have already solved my pbl.
thx
