Hi folks!
I finally saved some money and the time has come to buy a new vga.
And of course, I want to "play" in octane with it hehehe
I was thinking about buying a gtx 260, but its hard to find it here in my town. But yet, I think I can buy it if I want to.
The question is:
1-How much the gtx260 is faster then a gts250 in same situations, I mean, in a same scene, same resolution and settings; how many time the gts250 would take to render vs the gtx?
*the gts 1gb costs U$130,00 and the gtx260 U$220,00 here...
2- is there a estimated time for octane be able to handle/render in print resolution (more than 4000px) with 1gb of video memory or less?
3- In the other hand, there is a possible use of two gts250 for leaving the system without lags while rendering, which is a good thing, is not?
4- let's not forget that I still have to model/make scenes in my main 3d app, which is Modo, and I dont want to loose the capacity to handle heavy scenes (texturing+hi poly models/replicas). Which makes me afraid of the 2x gts250 (not sure if the SLI will make any improvement in viewports...)
I think thats all for now,
thanks
