Dual Core

[gadzooks]

Anyone running Vray on a AMD Dual core machine? Im getting one and was wondering what you guys thought of running on a dual core machine?

[deflix]

look at the benchmark thread.......

running fast and stable.

dont forget to install all important drivers like the AMD cpu drivers and chipset stuff.

look for install help pages with google.

I guess you probabaly should have searched first

We're running 6 Amd dual cores - all running fine, no problems, very happy with them.

We're using 6 Dual Core AMD's with V-Ray. All running fine, very happy with them.

I have one dual dual-core Opteron workstation (currently 32 bit) and 3 single-core dual opteron rendernodes at 64 bit, and all run beautifully.

on a dual dual core also, running fine, only issue ive had is particleflow seems to use only one processor when updating...might have been fixed with servicepacks.
And MR only using 2nodes pr. machine.

i thought all the dualcore opterons were 64bit

[DaForce]

pretty sure he is refering to the OS

And yeah all opterons are 64bit

[Da_elf]

ooooo. i get it now

[DaForce]

oh peterC, all particle based things are single core only. None of that has been multitasked yet. So any particle work you do is only even going to make use of one core. Sucks but its just the way it is.

Thanx for pointing that out daForce, did drive me a bit crazy when doing particletrix watching only 1/4 of my machine working on it during update.

No problems mate

Its a shame its not SMP enabled would run much better.. ah well... like you said maybe an update or patch one day will sort it.
