Quote - a little survey

 

1. what size image do you usually render (i.e. 1500X2000)

2. for this size if you have a "simple scene" (one model, hair, and maybe a few scant clothes), what is your average kS/s and kC/s.

3. your cpu has ? cores and runs at what speed?

4. how much ram do do have?

5. on average how many s/p does it take until the image is considered "done" (for example 300 samples per pixel)

6. how long does it take to get to question 5.

 

1. 2560 x 1440 for final render and half that for test renders

2. I've never done a simple scene like the one you describe. If it's of any help the final render I'm doing at the moment is presently at 123.59 kS/s and 242.29 kC/s.

3. 6 cores, AMD 1090T at 3.5Ghz, which is as high as I want to overclock it on this mummyboard

4. 8 gig of DDR3 1333.

5. I always render until 2500 s/p (except for test renders).

6. From 20 to over 50 hours depending on the scene.

The exhiliration of obscenity, the obscenity of obviousness, the obviousness of power, the power of simulation... ravishing Hyperrealism... mind blowing!
