Do you know that the current Core 2 Duo has a 1.86 GHz processor but able to out perform a single core 3 GHz processor by 70% and consume 50% less watt. A lot of people are confuse about what makes a processor fast, most the buyers tend to go for faster processing speed thinking that a faster processor means that its better, which turn out to be wrong. Pentium on the other hand is 32bit (newer models now comes with 64bit) and spot a 2MB – 4MB L1 and L2 cache. So I went and do some research online for more information, and went to my usual favorite computer website – Toms Hardware.Īccording to the benchmark (kind of old already), Xeon outperform all the other processor and what really make this Xeon so powerful? What is the technology behind it? Xeon is a 64bit processor, and comes with a 16M 元 cache. I did ask him about processor and graphic cards, now according to him Xeon is better than Pentium and a good graphic card will not speed up the rendering time but speed up the preview time during modeling. Q: Will a good graphic card speed up the rendering time? Q: Which is the best processor for 3D rendering?

What I did was simply launch my msn and chat with Mr.J from – Ex-lecturer of Limkokwing University. So, like my usual self, I searched on the mountain and in the valleys neither in the heights nor in the depths… I questioned the scholars and philosophers, but he was beyond their understanding….Well, not really. I was speechless for a moment, no one asked me about this before and the truth is, I don’t know. My boss wants to buy the best computer in the market and asked me is Intel Xeon better or Pentium Core 2 Duo? Will a good graphic card speed up the rendering time? Just like all those hardcore gamers, the hunger for processing power is never enough for any architecture student when it comes to 3d rendering.
