hi there,
i am quite a newbe in 3d abd octane so pls forgive me if i ask for a bit of patience with me. all this is sometimes overwhelming :O)
i am using octane render (a standalone) on my imac with this card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M 4096 MB
lowresolution like 500 by 1000 pixels work ok. but everything a bit more highres can really suck
so i thought that maybe the network rendering might be an option to improof my process
i have a pro mac here with 4 free slots and from my understanding i could put in there 2 new grafic cards (e.g. the gtx 970 4096MG) (only 2 because my dealer said they are so thick that they need more space)
also i have a macbook with a small nvidea card. only 1gb.
now i am wondering first of all: does all that make sense?
is the network rendering easy enough to set up?
is it reliable?
the costs would be around 350 euro per card. so around 700.- together
plus an extra standalone license per slave computer? correct?
i must admit i am not a very technical person. so if you feel you have some thoughts to share pls image you are speaking with a child ;O)))
would be great to hear from you
o.
