New lappy showed up an hour ago. Last night I did an idle benchmark on the old lappy. Octane "benchmark" scene for 300 samples 9 minutes 49 seconds.
New lappy same scene: 23 seconds.
Yeah baby!

Thanks man, I'm stoked.
Now alls I need to do is build out an extra render node (like your beast of a machine) for network rendering...

May I ask: What Ms/s do you get with the the benchmark scene? How much Vram?
The 880M seems to be quite a lappy beast

Sorry I didn't pay attention to that, I just compared the time to get to the same number of samples. I'll look later tonight when I get home.
In terms of VRAM it has 8GB.

Ms/s = 9.79 on the benchmark scene in DL or 2.44 on PT or 1.89 PMC.

Not bad ... if I compare this to my 770M GPU in the laptop, I get:
DL 6.60
PT 1.82
PMC 1.47
The 880M seems to be a nice solution for when you're travelling. Especially with the crazy amount of VRAM, which can handle large scenes (although you'll probably rather render a scene using up 8 GB on a fast desktop
).

Well I'm only into this stuff for hobby reasons so I don't need an immense render farm with crazy numbers like 40 Ms/s because I don't have any deadlines. I just don't want to sit there for three hours waiting before I can see what the render is going to look like so this is way better than good enough for me.
That said, now that the network rendering is coming out, I might buy a new power supply for my crappy desktop machine and gradually upgrade the graphics cards till I have a beast of a render slave because close to instant clearing up of the render would be sweet.

I am still can't believe that 880M only can make a 9.8Ms/s ? did u turn off alpha shadow?? Are these results are all coming from "alphashadow off"?? if does,the 880M even slower than the 680M(4G)
altho 8G for a 880M is so sweat
here is my 680M benchmark result with alpha shadow off(octane1.2 standalone)
PT: 3.53Ms/s 2m49s
PMC: 2.70Ms/s 3m41s
DL: 11.94Ms/s 50s
