Hi guys!
I've been using CPU and GPU renders for many years for ArchViz, so I have 2 x 2yr old PC builds laying around. Relevant parts - 1 x RTX 2070 super and 1 x RTX 2080, MoBo Gigabyte X570 AORUS ELITE, PS Corsair RM850x.
I'm very impressed with Octane, but before I dive in and buy a licence I first want to optimize my render build.
I understand that there is no option to use my Gigabyte X570 AORUS ELITE with 2GPUs without SLI so I need a new Mobo, the prices now are cosmic, so any advice on the optimal choice? I know I'll upgrade to RTX 30xx some day in the future and that would mean a new case and cooling and everything, so at least would be nice if I could use the Mobo that I buy now. I usually DYOR for everything, but as I'm fresh into Octane there's a lot to test and learn in limited time, so any advice on how would you approach this situation would be useful! Would you use these 2 GPUs on a new MoBo, or just buy 1x RTX 30xx series + new Mobo as a future proof setup?
Many thanks!!
