Quote - You said "I have an i7-920 and 8gb of RAM, but Poser will rarely get more than 50% usage out of it, wasting a lot of hardware power. If anyone knows a way around this please let me know, I'm sure it would help the OP as well."

 

mine can take 100% of cpu/system usage, maybe because i render in highresolution (1080p) animation.

Quote - I have a total of 24 cores in my main pc (2 12 core xeons) and Poser 8 and Poser Pro 2010 will run 100% cpu utilization on win7 64. What OS are you running?

pretty very lucky person, shall you make this test (banchmark poser), i'd really really really like to see how much you can perform with your high-end hardware :
