Dear community,

since a couple of years, I am back with Iclone and I am loving the quality of the rendering and CC3. I did render a 4k project 30 sec video yesterday. a simple item in PBR highest quality render settings of the engine.
Now, what happened, that the system took 1sec per frame in rendering time, which is ok.
But when I looked on the stats of my computer I found:
CPU usage = 42%
GPU usage = 36%
(I have a Acer Predator Helios 300 Laptop with I7 10750H (6cores) and RTX 2070 Max (8GB)

In case I continue to work with Iclone I may need to get the 3090 to get 24GB of memory usage.

Now I wanted to ask:

if the number of processors plays a role. Is it better to have more cores? Or is Iclone only using a limited set of cores? And is it only the processer speed that makes the difference?

Thanks

Steffen
(I have attached the video. I used an item that is roughly 5years ago and played a bit with the bump map and other material settings. I think it looks great)
