I think for such product renderings you would like to stick with Maxwell render. It is a lot better for such detailed work and materials, has a strong Caustics feature set. Octane has a weak spot here which is no problem if you consider the development of Maxwell avs Octane.

Hopefully in OCtane 3 we will get better and faster caustics and available on other render engines besides PMC

Will Maxwell be considered as fast ? = I think that it is slower

I'm just talking about final quality.

Maxwell supports all kind of render farms and also a quick preview mode. For some rings and diamonds it is speedy enough. A lot of advertising companies use it even for animations.

I like the look.

what is worse than octane ? .... only the fact that there is no quick caustics...
.. Dispersion ... excellent . .. quick render.... he needs to make the optimization of caustics and everything will be PERFECT
