At Puget Systems, we know that most programs and plug-ins for real-time visualization need one powerful video card backed up by a high-speed processor. The video card, or GPU, does the bulk of the work – so the CPU just needs to be fast and not cause a bottleneck. Such CPUs are also ideal for a lot of design and architecture applications, which is a perfect overlap to have in this type of workstation. On the other hand, ray-traced rendering programs tend to want either a high core count CPU or multiple, powerful graphics cards. GPU-based rendering tends to be faster overall, while CPU-based rendering can work on more complex scenes since system RAM can be a lot larger in capacity than VRAM on a video card. We have recommendations for each of these types of systems among the applications below.
