flip-mode wrote:It's just fused off, or it may even be simply disabled in microcode or something. It's definitely still there tho.It also uses slightly less power that the i5 3550, probably because the iGPU is either fused off or isn't even on the silicon.

Glad you like your new CPU! That sub-4Ghz clock rate is just too low for us gamer nerds, tho. Ψ(`▽´)Ψ
flip-mode wrote:Yep I don't care about Quciksync much. I'd be able to use it every great once in a while, but I don't do much messing with video. Just a lot (comparatively) of architectural rendering. FX 8350 would be fantastic for the rendering, but it's not very good with the actual in-application performance (single threaded), which is what I'm doing on the computer 80% of my day.

If you can get every core to run at 4.0ghz would make that awesome deal of a CPU even awesomer:)
flip-mode wrote:May I suggest that you should use Remote Desktop Connection so that you can run the render at work while you stay at home?A 3 hour rendering on my X4 955 at home takes 20 minutes on the 1230 at work. And for that reason, I'm just about to leave for the office so I can run some renderings.

flip-mode wrote:That's the kind of stuff I think cloud processing is really suited for! Offline renders are a perfect application of remote server farms, because latency is irrelevant. ヘ(・_|We've thrown some /insanely complex/ render scenes up to the cloud and they finish in about 20 minutes. And the render quality is higher than the highest possible settings from within Revit itself.

Is Autodesk also the name of the company? 〈(゜。゜)Well, here's a bummer: The renders I got back from the cloud for one of the scenes have unexplainable artifacts. The same scene rendered on the computer, which finally finished in 4h 20m, does not have those. Guess the Xeon is going to pull an all-nighter.

flip-mode wrote:I would at least disable core parking on the Xeon to make sure you aren't having problems there. ┐( ̄ヮ ̄)┌ That said, your workload might just not be very hyper-thread-able. If it's not a good mix of integer and FP work, then HT just won't help much.That comparison was run with both CPUs at stock settings, which seems prudent for comparison's sake.
