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?
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?
FurryBall GPU Rendering Platform Comparison: Skylake X, Xeon W, and Threadripper
This article looks at several motherboard chipsets, including X299 and X399, comparing how well they handle performance scaling across multiple GPUs in the FurryBall RT benchmark.
OctaneRender GPU Platform Comparison: Skylake X, Xeon W, and Threadripper
This article looks at several motherboard chipsets, including X299 and X399, comparing how well they handle performance scaling across multiple GPUs in OctaneBench 3.06.2.
V-Ray GPU Rendering Platform Comparison: Skylake X, Xeon W, and Threadripper
This article looks at several motherboard chipsets, including X299 and X399, comparing how well they handle performance scaling across multiple GPUs in V-Ray 3.57.01.
Photoshop CC 2017.1.1 CPU Comparison: Skylake-X vs Threadripper
While neither Skylake-X or Threadripper are likely the best choice for a pure Photoshop workstation, Photoshop is such a widely used application that we thought it would be useful to see just how well these two CPU lines perform.
Premiere Pro CC 2017.1.2 CPU Comparison: Skylake-X vs Threadripper
In this article we will be comparing Intel’s Skylake-X CPUs (including the new Core i9 7920X 12 core) to AMD’s Threadripper CPUs in Premiere Pro.
After Effects CC 2017.2 CPU Comparison: Skylake-X vs Threadripper
After Effects typically values CPUS with lower core counts and higher frequencies, but in this article we will be comparing Intel’s Skylake-X CPUs (including the new Core i9 7920X 12 core) to AMD’s Threadripper CPUs in After Effects.
Unreal Engine 4.16 CPU Comparison: Skylake-X, Kaby Lake-X, Broadwell-E, Skylake, Ryzen 7
In this article we will be examining how the new Skylake-X and Kaby Lake-X CPUs on X299 compare to the previous generation Intel CPUs and AMD’s Ryzen CPUs in Unreal Engine Editor.
X299 vs X99: What is the Difference?
With the release of the first Skylake-X and Kaby Lake-X CPUs, Intel has also launched the new X299 chipset. But what makes it different from the old X99 chipset?
