i7 vs Xeon

Unread post by bernardiann »

Which processor is fastest to speed up my CAM processing time:

i7 or Xeon or Quadcore or 2 Xeon

Please provide in order.

Also, what about graphics? does that play a big part in speed?

Hi,

I am not CAM user, but this page can help you

http://www.cpubenchmark.net/high_end_cpus.html

Of course it is a generic benchmark, but I guess it is a good starting point...

What I know about graphic issue, is:

nVidia GPU, Quadro is not really needed in v6 (I heard that it works fine in 7 release, but I do not practice this version), GeForce GTX works fine, after, it is just a price issue :wink:

From the same website, another information for you:

I am running a Core-i7 965 processor. If you would like to submit a TS Cam Version 6.11 "benchmark file" I can try to calculate it and record the time for you.
