New in ZBrushCore 2020: true clay-like sculpting with Sculptris Pro Scripts, plugins and macros are also disabled. Options for painting, masking or polygrouping models are basic, and there is no support for most of ZBrush’s advanced features, including its automatic retopology, hard-surface modelling and Live Booleans toolsets. Users get 36 of ZBrush’s 300-odd sculpting brushes plus support for InsertMultiMesh, and basic rendering options, either via BPR or a separate paid add-on for KeyShot. The first major update to ZBrushCore since 2018, the release adds some of ZBrush’s key recent features, including dynamic tessellation system Sculptris Pro, support for SubTool folders and the Universal Camera.Īs with recent updates to ZBrush itself, the update is free to existing users.Ī cut-down version of ZBrush aimed at less demanding jobsįirst released in 2016, ZBrushCore is a cut-down version of Pixologic’s digital sculpting software. As most ZBrush and Keyshot work uses less than 64GB RAM, a 2990WX-equipped a-X Mediaworkstation is our fastest PC for ZBrush and Keyshot for the price.Pixologic has released ZBrushCore 2020, the latest version of its cut-down edition of ZBrush targeted at hobbyists, students, 3D printing enthusiasts and illustrators. under 64GB, performance is little impacted. How does this impact ZBrush and Keyshot? Fortunately for RAM light work, i.e.
It’s a primary difference between Threadripper 1 and 2 (TR1 & TR2) CPUs, and AMD EPYC OR Intel Core and Xeon CPUs which have direct memory access on all cores.
When all the cores are requesting access, this can cause congestion. Important point re the new AMD TR2 CPU architecture: 50% of CPU cores have direct to system RAM, 50% require an extra step across the connected core to memory, which adds latency. Upgrading the above Intel configuration to the top dual Intel Xeon Platinum 8180 2.5 GHz solution (56 total cores) will provide you with a roughly 70% performance increase over the 2990WX equipped a-X with ZBrush and Keyshot, but this privilege will set you back $31,060.00 – that’s $23,439.00 more – enough for four a-X Mediaworkstation nodes for you and your team. Yes, you will get about 15% faster rendering with the Intel Scalable Xeon solution, and about 10% faster single threaded performance (for Adobe CC apps, or modeling/mograph needs in Cinema 4D for example), but at just over twice the cost.
