[QUOTE="scarredtaka, post: 567914, member: 33029"] Hi, I am looking at buying an animation program. It says on it's web site it supports multithreading. "NEW: xxx now supports multi-threaded rendering, taking advantage of the processing power of the multi-core and multi-processor systems now available. {Render Engine} can render on up to four threads simultaneously, which can be optimized for performance on your system to yield shorter render times for specific scenes." How can I maximize the power of multithreading? Does rendering on 4 threads mean it can/will use 4 cores at once? If so, would I then need a quad core mac, or a 2x duo core mac to get the full advantage of the 4 threads? If I have a dual core machine, does that mean it will only be able to render on 2 threads? Thanks -ST- [/QUOTE]
