Will GTX 680 with 1500 CUDA cores work 3x faster than gtx 580 with 512 CUDA cores?
Namely - is speed of rendering a (linear) function of CUDA cores?

The obvious is that which is never seen until someone expresses it simply

1x i7 2600K @5.0 (Asrock Z77), 16GB, 2x Asus GTX Titan 6GB @1200/3100/6200
2x i7 2600K @4.5 (P8Z68 -V P), 12GB, 1x EVGA GTX 580 3GB @0900/2200/4400

Hope to see some tests in Octane soon :)

Well rather than have Lux as a benchmark for OpenCL Refractive/Otoy should give reviewers Octane for Cuda testing.
Got to get out and promote themselves better as well now. The launch of Kepler tomorrow is a missed opportunity for waving their gpu rendering flag. Lux is fairly obscure to most people and yet these open source guys are doing it better. R/O will have to wait another 18 months for the next gpu series release. Probably someone else beats them to it. :roll:
