Hey ppl......
i having problem with C4d 9.5 and P4 D... (3.0ghz, 2gb Ram, 256mb Video Dell 9150) now my laptop (Centrino 1.7. 1gb 128mb video) is faster than the P4D... is the config for the image is large one (6640x4843 pixels) and radiosity at 70%of Strengh and Accuracy with no efects and no caustic either.... in the P4D is like almos 3 hours and in the laptop is 1:15.... .... thanks. Esteban

Re: Render Time
Sounds like your P4 has some kind of configuration problem. A Centrino is a good deal faster as a P4 given the same clock speed and a 1.7 GHz Centrino is nearly en par with a 3 GHz P4, but it's nowhere near as much faster as your resulty imply.

Re: Render Time
Srek - are there any pc configuration proceedures we can go through for c4d to make sure we're running optimally? it'd be nice to know we're running up to speed.

Re: Render Time
None that i'm aware of. As i said, only a messed up configuration could account for that kind of difference and there is no general rule or way to determine if something is not ok.
In general each and every software gadget running parallel to CINEMA will eat up CPU time, so disabeling everything you don't realy need is a good idea. The Task Manager can give you a hint if something is eating CPU time beside CINEMA. Cheers Björn |

Re: Render Time
Esteban-
Did you use Task Manager to monitor the CPU usage while rendering? The laptop should be a bit slower than one of the Pentium D's cores, with both the D should be about twice as fast. While rendering, you should see both cores working at full and Cinema should be at well over 90% CPU utilization. If it is, then you need to debug a Cinema config problem... |

Re: Render Time
i always do the task manager thing when im using C4D... it works sometimes... but the thing is.... my desktop is a dual core 3.0. and 2gb of Ram. and the laptop is a simple centrino 1.7... and 1g.. how is posible that the centrino goes faster that a dual core.....
