and I just wanted to make sure I'll get reasonable performance on the AMD, or if PiDiP is tailored to Intel-specific architecture. This is all because I saw that statement about IA-32 on effectv and it made me nervous.
An Athlon64 should work since PiDiP is not effectv. Some effects are ported from Effectv. Requirements for effectv have little to do with PiDiP. Besides, most MMX and SSE stuff is supported on Athlons and have for several years. Just because a few of the effects have been ported does not mean PiDiP is a port of effectv to PD. PiDiP contains a lot more than just some nifty effects.
Who started saying this thing about PiDiP being a port of effectv anyway? it needs to stop, right now.
