It's funny because at any big studio they will have powerful PCs that can make temporal preview renders and handle the 3D programs well.
They obviously don't do the final renders on their workdesk machines, but to think they don't have powerful machines to handle the 3D program and to make temporal and preview renders is asinine.

Dude who use to work for Technicolor and AlphaDogs here (intern really but still had to work with networking). Server farms FUCKING SUCKKKKKKKKK, especially if theyre off site, cause one thing that goes down or one file we cant physically grab its gonna put everything back, though most of that is the fault of the editor him/herself really, also its somewhat rare but still happens. On site server racks are nice cause everything is in house, and everyone is pulling from one LAN and its easy to follow and see where everything is going, plus small local network life. 16 threads could be nice for rendering but all that is really done before it shipped out to QC and either returned or continued on the process.

Youd be fucking surprised by the sheer laziness of some people, went in knowing basics, half way through the dude went somewhere and what he taught me was lazy crap and how not to check everything. Essentially, if a rack was having problems, say like a fan is stuck or something, turns the entire thing offline and fucks all 42 other dudes in the office when he could take some time to run through the shutdown process and reallocate the other racks for everyone else, and give everyone a heads up. Straight eth0 I/O, about 5TB of backup drives for the servers and tahts kinda it, no APC no dedicated firewall, basic routers, shit was wild.

>>61742470
shit wrong thread, can't delete post.

But also; 16 Cores for running VMs, and also if you're working with 3d modeling i.e. blender, it's good since you could leave half or 3/4 of your cores to render in a vm, and use the other cores to work on the next model whilst the other one renders, so that you don't just have dead time.

Server farms could be bought up, but typically you wouldn't use a server farm until final renders

It'll help a little when you install Gentoo.

>>61741767
>even video professionals at pixar don't need 16 threads, they rent server farms
They generally do that even for quick renders now.

And the server farms generally have many (CPU / GPU) cores 'cause you know, that's ultimately how you get bulk processing power cheap.

But all the quick test renders have to be done locally because transferring gigabytes of textures takes too much time.

This seems to be an admission that TR outperforms Intel and that you should buy intel because it performs less. When you can't win you can always "win at losing" right?

Everyone on the internet thinks they are video editors and need all this power.

Do you really need to pay $1000 or whatever it is just so you can save like 2 minutes editing your video. The amount of people that think they are running pixar in their basement is staggering.

The only consumer level person that I can possibly think that would actually need threadripper or similar is maybe a scientist or engineer where it could take days off a simulation.

GamersNexus did a Blender render of their new intro animation. Using 4 gpus and an i9 iirc, it cut the render time from something like 26 hrs to about 11. There are real use cases for this stuff.

I'm going to take a second and speak from my own perspective. The only performance - heavy task I put my Pc through is gaming, or the occasional encode with Shotcut for a little YouTube video. I do more than fine with 4 cores.
I still enjoy talking about The HEDT segment, because it's an interesting topic. The hardware can be just as much of a hobby as the use case. For example, Rally car enthusiasts talk about high end rally cars while they drive around their WRX with a couple mods. Similarly, with I'm here talking about 16 core chips while using my 6600k. Of COURSE most of us here are just gamers wanking off about products we will never use. Doesn't mean that the discussion isn't worth having.

Yes, the are professional video editors who can use that level of power and still want more. They aren't just processing/editing one video but several of them at once.

If you're an animation studio or production company the size of Pixar you already have your own large renderfarm.
If you're a small or mid-sized shop you will have a modest to decent-sized renderfarm, and then go to a renderfarm service for the occasional job that you don't have the capacity to render on your own.
If you're a freelancer or enthusiast you'd be retarded to blow money on a renderfarm service instead of putting that money into building your own render nodes.

nothing, really. and i say this as gentoofag. you could theoretically put it into office workstations to compile faster, or run chrome on it(if literally all you do is browsing boards all day), but in general amd's shit is useless. no one's gonna design their software for 16 cores until most computer have 16 cores. right now most software is designed with few hand-picked threads that do all the work, and it's a bother to design it with actual load balancing and proper parallelism. amd knows they can't compete in the areas that actually do matter, so they advertise off of goofy shit. like cores. some people might actually buy into the cores and purchase some of their products. hey, it's a necessary sacrifice to keep the competition up.

and maybe it's good for low price servers, i dunno.

if you're a pro you prerender on gpu, you render on your company's server.

Compiling scales nicely across processors. Try running make with multiple simultaneous jobs at the same time.

Compiling, virtual machines, ffmpeg for the odd video encoding or two

dorf fort will be multithreaded soon.

Blah, for video work, I just throw the project on a dedicated headless tower I re purposed for just this task. Frees up my main desktop for other things. Cheaper + since it's a dedicated machine, encoding time don't really concern me. If I'm in a hurray (rare) I can do video work on both the dedicated pc and main desktop.
