3D rendering: Maxon Cinema 4D R11

Test and analysis
We start with the 3D rendering software Maxon Cinema 4D, version R11.

The test was first carried out on our entry-level machine (32-bit), then on our high-end configuration (64-bit).

The test consists in rendering a very high resolution scene. Softening of the edges was also configured at a high setting so as to make the task more demanding.

On a small configuration, better to opt for a minimum of 3 GB to accelerate, a little, 3D rendering time.

On a high-end machine, the quantity of memory has hardly any effect on rendering time and it's only the processing unit (the processor here) that limits performance.

Here are the results that we obtained on our entry-level machine, then on our high-end machine.

Entry-level machine (Core 2 Duo) - Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit
Rendering time in seconds: low is good

High-level machine (Core i7) - Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit

Rendering time in seconds: low is good
