Paying for four cards and getting the speed of less than three sounded less than ideal, so I decided to go all in and watercool them. I'll be working on my own with no option to just add more machines to my office, and the possibility to use a farm or cloud solution doesn't exist just yet, so I need to squeeze every last drop from this machine. I talked to a few friends and decided that for such a big investment I may as well spend a bit more get something that performs really well. My first thought was to do something similar: buy a regular PC, find four 780's and stick them in there, but then Tom Glimps posted this article about Sebastien/Smicha's watercooled 4x780 rig.Ī lot of it flew over my head, but what stuck in my mind was that by not cooling the cards properly you could potentially lose 40-45% performance.

I'd gotten used to using render machines at the office in Berlin that were basically mid-range gaming machines loaded with 4 GTX Titans, and I knew that the (out of production) 780 6GB was great because I have one stuffed into my 2008 Mac Pro. This meant for the first time in over ten years I would have to buy a PC. This news, alas, would not render my projects between now and the release of Octane 3 so I needed to make a move. Otoy recently revealed the great news that future versions of Octane would support OpenCL, so the 'new' Mac Pro's can finally join in the fun. Recently, that pretty much ceased to be the case. To add some drama, I had a job lined up as soon as I landed so I needed new hardware pretty soon.Īs you also probably know I'm a Mac user, and I generally don't know exactly what's inside my machines and I don't particularly care as long as they work and run the programs I use.

As such, I needed to upgrade my hardware to accommodate serous rendering.

I will kindly defer you to Tom Glimps he is very knowledgeable, very friendly, and for some reason absolutely loves this stuff.Īs you may have read, I recently moved from Berlin to the UK and will be freelancing here from now on. Request: Please don't email me any questions about hardware because there's a really good chance I won't know the answer. TLDR: I now have a very large PC, within it's spacious interior are four water cooled GTX 980's.
