The Fastest, Most Powerful 3D VFX Workstation
EVER Produced!
Last week i taken delivery of our new WS218 series and I am impressed with how quiet the machine is.
After installing a few programs such as Cinema 4D, and Adobe CS4 Master collection i tryed out a few highly detailed 3D models to see how the machine performs!
I must admit i am really impressed on how this workstation performs when creating or rendering 3D scenes,most renders have been reduced to seconds and multitasking is effortless! at one time my brain was calculating faster that my old standard pc so i would be waiting for things to happen while pulling my hair out, where as now its hard to keep up!
This machine beasts open large Photoshop files and exports high resolution images in milliseconds, After Effects projects which are RAM intensive, calculating ram previews are really fast which increases your worflow!
If you are in the bussines of producing graphical art, 3D work or animation and effects then i would recomend some thing like this workstation.
