  dual processor v dual core?

  Posted by Nino Vrana on July 4, 2005 at 11:28 am

  Hi there,

  does anybody know whether after effects recognises dual core processors or not? I am in the process of building a new machine and am undecisive between a dual xeon machine or a dual core one….also, has anybody heard if AMD are going to bring processors out with Hyper Threading technology?
  any help is much appreciated.

  I don’t think AE would recognise dual cores any differently than it does dual cpu. I am getting an AMD 64X2 4400, so I will be able to tell you for sure then (it will be here within a couple weeks or so). AMD won’t be releasing CPUs with hyperthreading…ever. It’s an Intel thing. HT doesn’t seem to help anyways. The AMD 64 X2 4800 is beating the Intel dual core extreme edition(includes hyperthreading, unlike all the other Intel dual cores) is almost all catagories. It even does in After Effects (https://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1558,1820760,00.asp)

  Thanks for that, really interesting article. Looking forward to what you have to say about the AMD 64×2 and if it beats a dual xeon machine…
