I work from a home office. My company is based in FL. I make frequent trips to the studio each year and find it difficult to leave my workstations behind. I can't get any work done while I'm down there lol. At home I run C4D with octane plugin. I have x5 980ti gpus. I'm looking to purchase a travel system. Something no bigger than a macro
Something I can carry on the plane in my suitcase and take with me. I'd prefer it to have enough power to be able to run octane. I can always do main rendering by remote loging. But want to be able to continue to work while away. Thoughts? I know own there are some laptops out there with desktop gpus in them but I don't necessarily want to b pay a premium for that type of portability. something I can set up in a hotel or makeshift office.

I would definitely use a remote/network rendering on your big home machine accessing it from your laptop.

Smicha thanks for the reply. I've tried that but haven't found any software that will work properly to remote login. I use Cinema 4D and all of the remote login software that I've tried arent capapble of multiple key inputs at the same time. For instance holding down the 1, 2 or 4 key while holding down the left mouse button to move around. Thoughts? I'm not good with PC remote stuff so if there is a better way to remote in please give me a heads up.
