hi,
i want to buy/make a 4 processor rendering machine, which i can also use as a workstation at times.
if i buy a 4 processor server, put in a good graphics card and loads of ram, ensure it has fast (133) bus speed etc. will i get -
a - as good performance for openGL modelling
b - faster rendering (i'm using maya, which can multithread render)
than using a dual processor workstation.
do servers have any hidden downsides that make them not so good for use as a multi processor workstation?
thanks
