Won't be long to we have 32+ CPU cores, for our home PCs, doing real time unbiased rendering.
As I roughly said elsehwere today: once I did chrome spheres over water, now I do so much more, how things have changed in 10 years!!!

this is an unbiased render, doing tests of 3D modesl I made in Rhino, rendered in Maxwell.
not meant to be fine art just testing how the items looked :)
