Will Corona ever support NPR? I'm aware this is not a MUST feature, but this kind of rendering is very useful with MoGraph. I usually rely on scanline since it's extremely fast, but not so much on scenes with lots of opacity maps.

Quick question: AMD FX supports AVX, right? But everyone claims that Corona is slower on AMD's, so...

is Corona useless if you dont' have i7?

Corona is not useless on AMD, meaning it should work normally, but considering that AMD processors are way slower then i7, you are going to experience almost 50% slower render speed on them.

I work with both and at least for me, AMD doesn't seem being so slow.

AMDs don't support Embree (I think so).

Well, if you directly compare it through benchmark scene, you will see that even AMD's top 8core processors cannot compete with i7's that are like 5 years old. And maru, yeah, AMD also doesn't support Embree afaik.

All in all, you can still work normally with (new) AMD processors, just that it won't be as fast as Intel for the moment being.

EDIT: Removed false Embree claim, apologies. Thank you for the info Keymaster.

embree does support AMD. It is just generally slower because the CPU is slower.
