Thanks!

2 recent projects rendered in K3.035. For- and background trees / sky in post. Trees and skies from self-shot pictures. Little Nik collection filter. Better not talk about rendertime :oops: but ok, it is 1-1.5 hours each 3600px G2 :roll: (remember i'm still on my ancient single Xeon E5-1620!) New sy...

Yes it is, I'm still on LW11.6.3 with K3.035

Allthough I know it's by far not ready yet I can't help but wanting to use VPR all the time
It does crash quite often but this way I can find out what's ok for VPR to do and what not
Adjusting surface settings for example is no problem and saves quite some time.

I have to agree, I only work with K3 now (3.035) and it's very stable

As soon as system is here and operational i will run benchmark

Order is out, FINALLY! took almost 2 years

- Intel Core i9-9980XE 3 GHz 18-core 36 threads
- 128 GB ValueRAM DDR4
- Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2060

Hopefully fast enough to work for a few more years with K3.
At least it will be faster than my ancient single Intel Xeon E5-1620

Not migrating because of the incompatibly of objects, not so much because of Kray not being ready :D I am really not sure how to handle that in a decent way. To be sure one would have to backup all object libs, which is really massive amount of data. I have to be able to make changes to existing pro...

Maybe it will be i9 after all. Maybe in some situations a bit slower than AMD but without any windows problems. Anyway it will be blazing fast compared to what I have now . And LW 2015(11) will not be a problem as I don't think I will migrate to 2019 any time soon.

Price difference is about €200-300 so not that much..
(AMD 2990Wx vs Intel i9-9980XE)

Thanks for reply. Biggest problem of course is I cannot test system I do not have yet. Question also is how big is speed loss with AMD right now on LW, is it <25% average or more? To be on safe side maybe the i9-9980XE is best choice right now. Although it's hard not to go for the 64TH AMD 2990WX as...

So these are the options : PCSPECIALIST - Uw INTEL configuratie.pdf PCSPECIALIST - Uw i9 configuratie.pdf PCSPECIALIST - Uw AMD configuratie.pdf Was almost sure I would go for AMD but now think i9 9980XE will probably be better choice. Prices for i9 and AMD are almost the same, dual Xeon is a bit mo...

Thanks I guess this will change my mind

This week my new machine needs to be ordered but I'm still not sure to go for : - AMD Threadripper 2990WX (64 threads) - Intel i9-9980XE (36 threads) - Intel dual Xeon 4216 (64 threads) Kray benchmark don't show many recent results. I know Janusz will say dual Xeon but I have a slight preference for...

Well I just wanted to point out that Kray is not only used for interiors as his comment implies
