DaVinci Resolve has long been known to greatly benefit from multiple GPUs, but is this still true or has the recent launch of Resolve 14 changed things?
DaVinci Resolve 14 CPU Performance: Skylake-X vs Threadripper
While GPU performance is often the first thing that comes up when configuring a DaVinci Resolve workstation, the CPU is in many ways even more important. Modern CPUs from Intel and AMD can have up to 18 cores, but can DaVinci Resolve actually make use of them all?
Premiere Pro CC 2017.1.2 CPU Performance: Core i9 7940X, 7960X, 7980XE
With up to 18 physical cores, Intel’s new Skylake-X CPUs are very impressive from a technological perspective. Can Premiere Pro put all those cores to use, or would you be better off with a lower cost processor with fewer cores?
After Effects CC 2017.2 CPU Performance: Core i9 7940X, 7960X, 7980XE
For years, After Effects has struggled to utilize high core count CPUs effectively. Will this hold true for the new 14, 16, and 18 core Intel CPUs, or will they give us a surprise?
Photoshop CC 2017.1.1 CPU Performance: Core i9 7940X, 7960X, 7980XE
Photoshop may not be the best use case for these new 14, 16, and 18 core CPUs from Intel, but just how much worse are they compared to their lower core count counterparts?
Lightroom CC 2015.12 CPU Performance: Core i9 7940X, 7960X, 7980XE
Lightroom contains a number of tasks that can utilize a decent number of CPU cores, but with Intel’s new CPUs you can now have up to 18 physical cores on a single consumer CPU. Can Lightroom actually make use of all these additional cores?
