Case Study with Bellevue Dental Care
Dr. Minnoch has been providing dental care to his patients for over 22 years and is no stranger to utilizing the latest tools and technology in his dental practice. He has chosen workstations and servers from Puget Systems to meet the needs of his modern dental practice.

What is the most reliable hardware in our Puget Systems workstations?
Here at Puget Systems, our goal is not only to provide the fastest workstations possible, but the most reliable as well. As a part of our constant drive to offer only the highest quality components possible, we track and regularly review the failure rates for each part we carry. Today, we want to give a bit of a peak at how reliable different types of hardware are in our workstations.

DaVinci Resolve GPU Roundup: NVIDIA SUPER vs AMD RX 5700 XT
More than any other NLE, having a fast GPU (or multiple GPUs) is incredibly important in DaVinci Resolve. With both AMD and NVIDIA recently launching a number of new video cards, it is time to once again see what the best GPU is for Resolve.

V-Ray Next CPU Performance: Intel Xeon W-3200 Series Processors
Intel updated their workstation-oriented Xeon W processor line recently, using technology from the high-performance Xeon Scalable series. This means more cores in a single-socket platform than Intel has offered before, and since high core count usually translates to fast rendering speeds we are taking a look at how these new CPUs stack up in V-Ray Next.

Cinema 4D CPU Rendering Performance: Intel Xeon-W 3200 Series Processors
Intel updated their workstation-oriented Xeon W processor line recently, using technology from the high-performance Xeon Scalable series. This means more cores in a single-socket platform than Intel has offered before, and since high core count usually translates to fast rendering speeds we are taking a look at how these new CPUs do in Cinema 4D’s native renderer.

Video Editing Performance with Intel Xeon W-3200 Series Processors
While the choice between using an Intel X-series or Intel Xeon W processor is often decided by more than straight-up performance, it is still useful to know exactly how much performance you might be losing in order to gain Xeon-exclusive features like 64 PCI-E lanes or Reg. ECC memory support. To that end, in this post we will be benchmarking the Intel X-series, Intel Xeon W-3200, as well as the AMD Threadripper processors in a range of applications including Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, and DaVinci Resolve.

Matt Bach Talks 8K Video Editing at SIGGRAPH
Our own senior hardware analyst, Matt Bach, gave a presentation at PNY’s booth at SIGGRAPH 2019 on 6K to 8K editing workflows and what you need to be able to handle it.

V-Ray Next Multi-GPU Performance Scaling
One of the big advantages of GPU-based rendering is that you can easily put multiple video cards inside a single workstation. How much benefit does each additional card provide for V-Ray Next, though? We put four GeForce RTX 2080 Ti video cards to the test to find out!
AMD Ryzen 3900X vs Intel Xeon 2175W Python numpy – MKL vs OpenBLAS
In this post I’ve done more testing with Ryzen 3900X looking at the effect of BLAS libraries on a simple but computationally demanding problem with Python numpy. The results may surprise you! I start with a little bit of history of Intel vs AMD performance to give you what may be a new perspective on the issue.
