V2011 is the first release of 3DStudio Max to fully support the Windows 7 operating system. This is a professional level tool that many people use for work purposes and our test will show any possible differences between board design today.
Autodesk 3ds Max Design 2011 software offers compelling new techniques to help bring designs to life by aggregating data, iterating ideas, and presenting the results.
Streamlined, more intelligent data exchange workflows and innovative new modeling and visualization tools help significantly increase designers’ creativity and productivity, enabling them to better explore, validate, and communicate the stories behind their designs.
Major new features:
- Slate: A node based material editor.
- Quicksilver: Hardware renderer with multithreaded rendering engine that utilizes both CPU and GPU.
- Extended Graphite Modeling Toolset
- 3ds Max Composite: A HDRI-capable compositor based on Autodesk Toxik.
- Viewport Canvas toolset for 3D and 2D texture painting directly in the viewport
- Object Painting: use 3D geometry as ‘brushes’ on other geometry
- Character Animation Toolkit (CAT): now integrated as part of the base package
- Autodesk Material Library: Over 1200 new photometrically accurate shaders
- Additional file format support: includes native support for Sketchup, Inventor
- FBX file linking
- Save to Previous Release (2010)
We render a KitGuru custom created scene at 1920×1080 and record the time taken, lower is better.
The additional bandwidth of the Visiontek memory helps improve the scene rendering performance by around 2 seconds when compared against the 1333mhz clocked competitor. When compared to the 1600mhz Kingston HyperX T1, it improves performance by 0.7 of a second. This might not seem like much, but for a significantly longer task it could improve the rendering time by a couple of minutes.
I like the way they have used a mid size heatspreader.
I cant see their memory products for sale anywhere. Can you ask what countries they are supporting please? is it just america?
awesome, I wish I had 24GB of ram. cant wait to see the quad kits for the upcoming intel platform !
They seem to be getting a good supply from the far east for this range. im impressed.
Quality, always liked Visiontek. nice to see them back into the ram business.
I think these are USA only. which is a real shame as I need quality memory for my X58 system 🙁
I never understood why kingston went for the massive heatspeaders. even these aren’t needed. just keep them small guys, then we never have to worry about coolers.
Lifetime warranty, great performance. but how much? and where? my friend went to buy the sandybridge kit and can’t find it anywhere.
Read the other review on the 1600MHz and it seems Visiontek seems to be poised well. I’d like to attempt overclocking a 24GB kit on my own though…
