Nice. Yeah, I'm jealous.
Hey Karlo, your production values on a mod vid for YouTube are so high..
I can only begin to imagine how much goes into your client work...
How many watts?.. 1600W?
Maybe the full specs of beast?..

Dont be jealous
Well, we are working hard to complite all challanges on our path with good video or rendering presentations for our clients or company promotion.
I was thinking about the project name and as common is BEAST i rather prefre SNAKE
2 x 1250W PSU = 2500W
1 PSU only for graphic cards and the other one for other parts.
Spec; extreme V mobo, i7 ivy bridge, 32 gb ram, 4 x gtx 690, ssd 250 gb.
OS; win7 x64

Nice machine for rendering, you could overclock the GPU a bit as you're under water.
Ouch 2500W ! otherwise, the PC is clean and great.

2 Gordonrobb: you will need around 10k eur if you are assambling alone. If you hire someone to do it for you... that will be few K eurs more..
2 itou31: i need stable system wich will render 24/7 10 days for some animations...day up or down with overclocking means nothing to me

Karlo, I'm just curious. If You put such money for this system, why You've chosen 690 instead of Titans? I see no logic here, unless..You bought before Titans were released.. =) but maybe You have other reasons /that's why I'm askin' =)
anyway, nice video! entertaining to say at least. update us with some animations cooked with this beasty SNAKE =)
cheers

Hello,
im not working with scenes wich needs mulit GB RAM... i need core mhz speed and big amount of cores to finish rendering asap...

Well if it was speed you need, 4 Titans would have been faster. But great setup.

You do know the fact that 690 is almost the same in speed as Titan? =) still I don't get why to put the same money in something that has 'limited' usability - lifespan of Your system is basically shorter /what if..You step on higher resolutions, bigger textures, more complex models.. - 3x vRAM, when You don't have to pay any extra..seems a big miss to me =)
but, It's Your decision here =) so it doesn't matter as long as You happy with it I'm just trying to understand =) maybe I have missed smth here, that's all.
cheers
