mr_phoenyxx 100 pixel samples ? That is crazy. No wonder the machine takes days to render. For quality I use 20 pixel samples, maximum 30.

I knew someone would say that. :)

Here is the issue though, this exact same machine before the update to 11.2 would render a 1600x1200 scene in about 6 hours.

My personal experience has been that with anything less than 100 pixel samples, I don't get a decent result. I would be curious to see all of your render settings to compare.
