I am thinking about getting into 3dsmax or Lightwave along with maybe Poser and/or Vue D'esprit.
I have my new rig, see sig, which will be upgraded to Quad core.
I still have my old rig: AMD Athlon XP 2800+, 1gb RAM and a geforce 6600.
So my questions are:
1. First off, will my Quad core sig rig be even decent at all working with 3dsmax or Lightwave? I plan on doing creative/artsy/abstract stuff. I know it depends on how many objects/textures I am rendering, but can I expect somewhat decent speeds with rendering time? My old rig would maybe take days to render something at high res with AA and all that maxed out.
2. Is it possible to use this 2nd PC in a network to help speed up rendering?
TIA!
