Hello everyone!
I recently started working with the CC suite.
My configuration is based on a 1366 motherboard and I have 24 GBs of RAM.
Now when I first started using AE, my I7 920 worked really well but I wanted to see how much faster rendering times I could get by upgrading to a i7 990x.
Well, it seems that my rendering times have nearly doubled since I installed my 990x!
If I don't use multiprocessing ON when rendering, one of my projects takes 16 minutes to render (used to take 7 and a half), and trying different settings under multiprocessing gives me variable results.
At best I can get close to my previous (i7 920) fastest rendering time. Which really makes no sense! The 990x has 6 cores and a higher frequency!
The template I am using as a test uses no weird plug ins, just prerendered flares and motion blur.
I also noticed that on my windows experience index, my CPU now has a score of 6.9. Now that can't be right?
My mobo is a EVGA SLI Classified and my GPU is a 660 GTX.
Any help is apreciated, whether it's 990x experience or multiprocessing settings for 6 cores and 24GBs of RAM.
Thank you.
