HOUDINI

Houdini is a 3D animation software application developed by SideFX, based in Toronto. SideFX adapted Houdini from the PRISMS suite of procedural generation software tools. Its exclusive attention to procedural generation distinguishes it from other 3D computer graphics software.

During Modeling and Rendering activities, Houdini™ will not take advantage of many CPU cores. The best performance for such tasks is achieved with the fastest top core speed. The Intel® i7 and i9 are favored to the XEON® CPU delivering the best performance/price ratio. Houdini rendering will take full advantage of multiple cores and hyper thread capabilities. The i9-14900KF represents the optimal value with 8 Performance-cores + 16 Efficient-cores and 32 Threads with a high clock spread. @Xi also provides professionally overclock versions, favoring an absolute top core or all cores at higher frequency to deliver optimal balanced Design and Rendering Houdini performance. @Xi is supporting both NVIDIA RTX™ (previously Quadro) Professional Graphics and GeForce RTX™ video cards or use with Houdini. SSD drives are a must and faster NVMe M.2 recommended. For budgets and requirements beyond the Titanium configuration, Threadripper™ PRO series and XEON CPU can be custom quoted.
