Photoshop typically doesn’t require a HEDT processor, but with Intel drastically reducing the price of their new X-series CPUs and AMD greatly improving single threaded performance in their 3rd Gen Threadripper CPUs, is this finally going to change?
Webinar: How To Choose The Right Hardware For Pix4D
In this 45 minute webinar, William George will go over the major components that go into a workstation, explaining what each does and how they impact Pix4D performance. Our goal is to equip you to select the right hardware in your next photogrammetry system, and we’ll make time at the end for a brief Q&A time as well.
Case Study with Contractor Nation
Contractor Nation is a network of home improvement, repair, and service contractors. We spoke with IT Team Lead, Brandon Carr, to find out more about the work he and his team do for the company along with understanding how workstations from Puget Systems help them build creative solutions for both internal and external customers.
AMD Ryzen 3950x Compute Performance Linpack and NAMD
The, much anticipated, AMD Ryzen 3950x 16-core processor is out! As always the first thing I wanted know was the double precision floating point performance. My two favorite applications for a “first look” at a new CPU are Linpack and NAMD.
DaVinci Resolve Studio CPU performance: AMD Ryzen 9 3950X
While DaVinci Resolve is known for its ability to leverage the power of your GPU, the CPU is often just as important, especially if you are not heavily utilizing noise reduction or OpenFX. The AMD 3rd Gen Ryzen CPUs are already a great choice for Resolve, but are the 16 CPU cores on the new Ryzen 9 3950X worth the increased price?
Premiere Pro CPU performance: AMD Ryzen 9 3950X
Ever since the launch of the 3rd generation Ryzen CPUs, AMD and Intel have been trading blows when it comes to Premiere Pro performance. With the launch of the Ryzen 9 3900X, however, will AMD to take a solid lead over Intel?
After Effects CPU performance: AMD Ryzen 9 3950X
AMD’s 3rd generation Ryzen CPUs did very well at launch, but Intel managed to maintain a small performance lead in After Effects. With the new Ryzen 9 3950X, however, AMD has added an additional four cores to their consumer processor line. Is that enough to allow AMD to take the performance crown in After Effects?
Lightroom Classic CPU performance: AMD Ryzen 9 3950X
When AMD launched their 3rd generation Ryzen CPUs, they took a commanding lead over Intel in terms of performance in Lightroom Classic. Now, AMD has released a new CPU called the Ryzen 9 3950X which increases the number of cores available on that platform to 16 physical cores. Will this allow AMD to extend their lead even further, or is Lightroom Classic not able to utilize those additional cores?
Photoshop CPU performance: AMD Ryzen 9 3950X
With the 3rd generation Ryzen CPUs, AMD was able to close the gap with Intel in lightly threaded applications like Photoshop. Now, AMD has released a new CPU called the Ryzen 9 3950X which increases the number of cores available on that platform to 16 physical cores. But does that actually help at all in Photoshop?
Cinema 4D R20 CPU Rendering Performance: AMD Ryzen 9 3950X
AMD’s Ryzen 3rd generation processors launched a few months ago, with both more cores and higher per-core performance than previous models in that series. Now AMD has released the top-end chip in this family, the Ryzen 9 3950X, with even more cores! In this article we will take a look at how it stacks up to a few other AMD and Intel processors in this application, focusing exclusively on rendering performance measured via Cinebench R20.
