Not basically, it is. They even left the akitio logo and serial number on the bottom of the device.

If convenience out ways cost like it does for me I would recommend us .

Hi,
I have been considering Bizon when GTX 1080 will comes out, but how well your single 980 Ti is performing with Octane3? Fast enough or would you need another one or more? After seeing people having 4 GPUs and more, I just wonder if single GPU is enough.
Thanks!

Take a look at my signature, I'm running (4) GPUs, not just the external.

Well, good for you!
Have you tried Octane without slave GPUs? How well single eGPU will perform? I know after having 4 GPUs running for you, single eGPU isn't much, but still.
As I mentioned I'm looking for GTX 1080 with Bizon setup, but not sure if that would be enough for simple animation renders.
Cheers!

GPU: MSI GTX 980 Ti 6GD5 V1 PCIE
Computer 1: Win 10 64-PC |3.2GHz 4-Core i5-6500 | 16GB DDR4 | Internal PCIe
Computer 2: '13 Mac Pro | 2.7GHz 12-Core Xeon E5 | 64GB DDR3 | 10.11.3 | eGPU
Computer 3: '09 Mac Pro | 2x 2.6GHz 4-Core Xeon | 24GB DDR3 | 10.11.3 | Internal PCIe
PC Average: 117.097 (117.18 | 116.61 | 117.50)
'13 Mac Average: 111.847 (116.15 | 111.30 | 108.09)
'09 Mac Average: 117.86 (118.62 | 117.62 | 117.34)
So if our PC is our baseline the eGPU is running at 96% efficiency. I think that's pretty negligible in performance.

@glimpse by not supported, do you mean that Octane is not supporting new GPU or do you mean eGPU tech side?
@natemac00 thanks for the comparison. I'm not in hurry so I will wait when GTX 1080 is released, supported and tested by others before I make my conclusion.
Cheers!
Yes, this is my question too. I actually want to buy some GPUs.natemac00 wrote:Pascal GPU architecture is not a supported in Octane yet, once the card is actually released, they can test the GPU and get it supported, it's just how soon that might happen this is the question.
