Professionals who render images whether they work within the VFX Industry, 3D CAD Design or Architectural Design are all well aware of the frustrations and costs lengthy render times can cause. Solving this issue with a dedicated render farm often is viewed as a daunting, highly technical and complex task.

This doesn’t need to be the case, read on to find out seven reasons dedicated Rendering Solutions such as those sold here at Workstation Specialists can slash rendering times and give companies the ability to complete more projects quicker, a...

Autodesk’s highly advanced 3DS Max visualization design software complexity offers a conundrum when choosing the best workstation configuration for this software. With its demanding 3D modelling functionality and need to output renders means the user requires both a highly fast GHz performance and many cores. Also with all the novel technologies coming up the ranks each day, it is tough to choose the perfect combination of components, such as: what capacity of ram do I need? Pro vs Consumer graphics cards? What type and how much storage will be...

When it comes to 3D design, only a few are unaware of Dassault Systemes® renowned SOLIDWORKS application. It enables users great functionality to create 3-D or even 2-D designs, permits efficiency driven collaboration and even lets you run a simulations on your designs based on practical conditions before you start to engineer your physical parts. It is no surprise then, that due to the cutting edge features of SOLIDWORKS, the application is one of the world’s most popular among engineers.

SOLIDWORKS is a fantastic 3D design software package ho...
