Re: Do Color Renders use all 8 cores on new Mac Pro's??

We have 2 of the Jan08 8Core systems, and they donīt show any freezing problem (in fact I think they even get pretty hot).
Color does not use a lot of CPU power, since most of the processing is done on the GPUs. But with the current MacPro lineup I definitely would recommend getting an 8core system, since the 4 other CPUs can be helpful in many other areas. As far as I know the price benefit from downgrading to a 2*2core system is not that big.
