How is that possible i do 7:07 on i7 3930k @ 3.5 / 32 gb ram / GTX 680 phantom 4gb / ssd intel 330

Isnt that a bit slow? i also noticed when i was working 3ds max my gpu based rendering was like 1 minute less than what i was reading in forums… What i ve possibly done wrong here? thanx

5 mins 48 seconds

Mac Pro 4,1 Early 2009 – Dual 2.26GHz
24GB RAM
Lion 10.8.2

Single GTX 570 2.5GB VRAM – GPU 895MHz overclocked – Point of View (POV) TNT

In general I’m finding the performance of my machine on After Effects 6 better with just 1 graphics card (GTX 570) rather than adding the GT120 to use as a GUI card. This configuration works fine in Davinci Resolve lite too.

Outside this benchmark I’ve also noticed that the GPU is not used in lots of different situations whilst the CPU is heavily loaded i.e. when not using the Ray-traced 3D renderer. It seems like there must be a more efficient way of offloading CPU onto GPU when it’s sitting there idly with practically no usage while the CPU struggles on!

Cheers,

Eddie

System specs:
AMD Phenom X4 9750
8G PC2-6400 (400Mhz) (5-5-5-18)
Windows 7 64-bit Professional SP1

GeForce 560 Ti: 11 minutes & 27 seconds

GeForce GTX Titan: 4 minutes & 33 seconds.

MOBO only has a PCI-E 1.1 slot so performance should be even better on a PCI-E 2 and 3 slot.

Intel i7 980x
GTX Asus 680 4GB
12 GB ram
First try 7min
Second try 18 sec…
Just to say that there are a lot of things that makes a render faster.
If you run a ram preview for ex it takes on my machine 4 minutes and the rendering takes 18 seconds after the ram preview.
If you lock the preview with the Caps the rendering is made in 5 minutes the first time. If i disable the Nod32 the rendering is done in 4 minutes too…
Funny esxperiments 🙂
