love to see a video of your setup :)
you'll probably burn the town fuses and the whole town will be without electricity.\

the 2.2 RC1 will be released soon, if all goes well tomorrow otherwise the day after.

you'll be able to render 5000 pixelsamples with pathtracing at 720p resolution in about 1 minute :)
that's 720 frames in 12 hours.
that's basically a 350 quad core PC renderfarm in one box. :shock:

Don't worry, the machine is in my office, and the electricity bill of my office is cheaper than that of my home.
And it would be cheaper than that of 350 quad core pc render farm, too. :)

Just to get some numbers in mind, how much did the rig cost all together? I wish there were more video compression/transcoding software companies working with multi-gpu architecture. I could probably get me bosses to spring for a system like this then.
System 1: EVGA gtx470 1280Mb and MSI gtx470 1280 in Cubix Xpander for Octane, AMD 945, 4Gb Ram
All systems are at stock speeds and settings.
