3-D track motion and processor power

I'm working on a project ( or trying to anyway) that has only a few tracks.
When I use a 3-D track motion effect on say the opening title, The preview is bad enough to where I have to pre-render the section to get a clean look at it.
This takes alot of time even if it's only say, six seconds. the render time is a couple of minutes.

Most everything else I do is exceptable effects wise. So I guess my question is, Are the 3-D effects that much of a processor pig or am I experiencing some other problem?
I'm running a 2.3 gig Intel with SATA drives that I use soley for video work. The files are going to a seperate drive from the operating system drive. I've never had any issues untill I started using the track motion stuff.

2.3 gig not enough for this kinda thing?
Thanks!
 
I have similar specs, and my render times are pretty long too on 3D track motions. It's processor intensive, kinda like Magic Bullet.

J.D.
 
It does'nt seem to matter what preview quality I select. Just a slooowwww grind till it's done.

What are you using for a processor? I am dreading the upgrade not so much for the cash thing, but getting all of the send and reponse codes for my software sucks in a big way. What a great way to punish those who "buy" there software....... Ok I feel better now.
 
3D track motion is a pig, similar to Magic Bullet like J.D. said ... just get used to it until you get that ever lovin' super computer you've been dreaming about.
