Render Farm with Octane!

Hey guys,


First post here, but I would like to announce that I will be building a render farm based upon the Octane Render. I saw this website last week while looking for GPU based accelerated programs; at that same time I was looking to build a render farm for my company (Revolution Studios). Each node will have quad Nvidia cards, and be driven by a quad-core Phenom from AMD. I will be posting pictures of the build. Thanks guys!


Best Regards,
Jim Atchue

does actually octane support render farm? (multiple computers linked?) I don't think so.

Octane really doesn't have to support it, I'm a software developer as well; we have a few farm solutions when it comes to this. If worse comes to worse, each node will be it's own Octane rendering computer.


I will definitely have prices and things. Keep in mind, this is also a green rendering farm. It will be running of a solar panel + battery array!

It doesn't support render farming natively, but you can always use Dr. Que for animation.
