Octane Community,
The company I work for http://www.light-borne.com/ does work for some very high profile musical acts. We animate and designing their tour visuals mainly. We have a phase of the job where we travel to the rehearsal location and make changes to our work and very often make new content within a very small time frame. We are always looking for more speed because we simply don't have time to waste. Also our art director has fallen in love with the beautiful renders Octane is able to produce and change on the fly These are the reasons we needed a single computer with as much render firepower as is possible that has the flexibility to travel as well.
So I commissioned https://www.maingear.com/ to build this monster! They happily took on the challenge and did a great job!
