Subject: 64 bit render settings help.

I took the plunge and upgraded my system to an AMD X2 5600, 4 gig ram, Geforce 8600 GT and Vista Ultimate 64.

Hoping some of you out there can share your experiences on render setting when using a fairly high end system.

I have really noticed the difference in render times with Carrara - but not so much with Poser - so I'm guessing it's my render settings....

64-bit vs 32-bit will not greatly improve render times - benchmarks I have seen for Vue (Louguet) are around 1-2% increase in speed, if any.  The advantage is effectively unlimited memory usage for apps that are written in 64-bit instructions - and Poser is not one of those.  It's not a really big benefit in Poser, although it's great for Vue, Cinema 4D or Max or any of the other "big boy" apps.

and Poser is not one of those.  - Qualifyer 'Yet' (Poser Pro II is supposed to be 64bit rendering, but has not been released as yet)

Poser 7 is compiled as "large address aware", so it will get a full 4GB address space on your 64 bit machine. I recommend enabling rendering in a separate process, then the renderer will get its own separate 4GB address space as well as setting it to render in 4 threads to maximize the usage of the two CPU cores. And congratulations to your new machine!

Thanks - that is just the information I was looking for...
