In the past we have found that Metashape can perform better on high core count processors when SMT is turned off, but the top CPUs at that time were Intel’s 8 & 10-core models which didn’t benefit from this trick. Now that AMD’s Ryzen 5000 Series are the fastest chips for Metashape is it worth turning SMT off on these processors, some of which do have high core counts?
Agisoft Metashape 1.6.5 – NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 Series Multi-GPU Performance
Agisoft Metashape has had an interesting history with multi-GPU performance. At different points in time, and with different generations of video cards, we have seen both substantial boosts from having multiple video cards as well as next to none. With the latest AMD CPUs and NVIDIA GPUs, we are testing this aspect of Metashape once more.
