onyhus Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 We are probably investing in a couple of new computers soon and I'm wondering if the new AMD powerhouse will be a good processor for Vectorworks. We have done some in house tests on render times, and it is pretty clear that multiple cpu cores with as high clock as possible, and ram with high speed and timings have an impact on render time. Will Ryzen be supported? Ryzen have 8 cores and 16 threads, and supports memory up to at least 3200 MHz. Quote Link to comment
zoomer Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 It will be fine for RW Rendering, using all cores. Single Core speed is also near as good as Intel so it will be also good for standard VW work. Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee PVA - Admin Posted April 20, 2017 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted April 20, 2017 I believe the upper limit of CPU core usage at the moment in Renderworks in 128 cores. And yes, it will be compatible, no worries there. Quote Link to comment
