Benchmarked too, just for fun, a hour ago or so. All @ default, tweaking would be cheating, right?
Got a warning at the standard subdiv cache at 400 MB but meh..
- Xeon E3-1240v2 @ 3744 MHz (bit OC´ed via BCLK at 104), temps ~41 max. (realtemp, + cpu-z)
- 16 GB RAM, 1333 9-9-9-24
- SSD HD (i think it´s all about CPU skills TG wise so..)
Benchmark time was 7:09 minutes.
I just bought recently a new Shuttle SH67H3 with an LGA 1155 MB for less then 200 € (v.2.0 MB is needed for Ivy CPUs) and will just throw that low energy consuming and low heat producing Xeon single server Ivy CPU into that Shuttle + some adds from what was left at home from my old system.
Curious then, what my cheap renderslave, named
Franz, will achieve then with less, but faster RAM (7-7-7-21)..
If i can set up a complete remote control, im rly happy then.
There is nothing more annoying than a/your main PC system is hindered because of long time background renderings..
