I saw nobody posted the bench for the little brother in the Octa family, so that i'll do it!

MacPro 2x4x2,8Ghz 4GB RAM
Bench: 1035,53
Time: 10m22s

Not bad for a mac that costed 2750€, came out of the box and run benchwell 5 mins later, right?

[Hervé]

perfect !

"1X INTEL XEON Q6600...."

sorry it is not a XEON it's an Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600

Your dual X5460 / 3.16Ghz (harpertown) : 1145.35 => XP64

Pmore78's Mac pro (maybe 5365) / 3Ghz (clovertown) : 1145.3 => OSX

As you guys may know i got a new mac pro octo....

finally managed to install windows properly but now only looks liek one core is recognized...
is that because i am using xp home.. all i have right now

is there a trick to get all cores working ?


Also i did a test rendering on the mac side with benchwell before i installed my lic # and got a time of 6 mins 34 secs with benchmark of 1061.79


does the maxwell splash image in the middle of unregistered version save you time ????

interesting

[-Adrian]

No, the original resolution is 960xsomething, and the demo/unregistered maxes out lower than that. That's why the website states not to use the demo

[martgreg]

you mean i have to read the instructions ...


lol

[-Adrian]

lol, well i placed that info under the download link, should i make a blinking javascript popup

Btw, would any Mac user be so kind to download an updated ZIP file from me, and return it with default OSX render-output paths? (preferably 64bit, unless the paths are equal) Just cosmetics, i know.
PM me.
