Hi people, people always ask about Carrara and processors performance, so a friend find a way to create a database that others can look at and do some comparisons and decide what system buy or use.
I recreated the scene that you will use to create the benchmark and that scene will use something from almost all great features from shader and render engine: SSS, TRansparency Absorption and In-Scattering, Radiosity, Reflection and Refraction.
Help us to create a good database for Carrara here: just download the file, render and take note of the time:
