As i understood it those with HT in their cpu should enable 2 threads when renderings to make full use of the cpu.
I cannot test this myself as i barely have a quarter of a normal cpu hehe

but from a license point of view a cpu with ht counts as 2 cpu?

[rivoli]

nope, it counts as 1 cpu.

thanks

1 Maxwell license allow's 4 non-dual CPU's or 2 dual CPU's ( or 1 dual CPU + 2 non-dual CPU's ), hyperthreading doesn't matter.

[giacob]

and why it says " Num processor 2"?

[rivoli]

that's because of a known kind of bug (?) with HT cpus when HT is enabled. it's been there since the beginning i think.

[albertMaxwell]

and why it says " Num processor 2"?

That's because it shows the total number of processors ( virtual or not ) like the operating system. If you have 1 processor + HT windows tells you have 2 processors.

Anyway Maxwell does not count this "hyperthreading processor" as a real processor when computing licenses.

ok .. many thanks
