Hello, about a week ago I bought a new machine. The configuration for the new machine is: Dual Xeon E5-2690 V3 Asus Z10PE-D8 WS (m/b) 32GB RAM DDR4 ECC Quadro K4200 An SSD for system disk plus a few HDs For comparison reasons the old machine is: i7 965x (@3.55GHz) Asus P6T Deluxe (m/b) 12…

Come on guys… :slight_smile: (or my English is so bad, that you cannot understand what I am talking about :frowning: )

Would it be possible to send us stripped down version of the scene for investigation? Is there any difference if you set Default Geometry and Displacement mod to use Static Geometry: What is the CPU utilization during Displacement Calculation Stage? Try to disable Hyperthreading and run the same …

Sorry for the delay. I was testing almost all day to have a more complete opinion. So if you ask me I can provide you the results. The CPU utilization most times is 100% Some times it goes to 70% When is 70% I will have a longer displacement calculation time. But if its 100% still the displace…

I am stupid I didn’t notice that I can save as an old max version. :stuck_out_tongue: Displacement_test_2014.zip (333 KB)

[image] No alpha in glossy refraction objects I am stupid I didn’t notice that I can save as an old max version. :stuck_out_tongue: Doesn’t work in 2014 still. Maybe you uploaded the wrong file?

I am pretty sure I uploaded the right file but let me check

Yeap you were right. I put a 2013 version as well, just in case Displacement_Test_2014_2013.zip (376 KB)

I did a couple of tests on the attached scene into our environment and I can confirm that the Xeon processor is slower during the IM-calculation than i7. Xeon total render time (prepass stage + final rendering) is faster than i7 total render time but the IM-calculation is slower. This fact is true…
