    Everytime I do a full screen render in Cinema 4d my APC starts screaming and the overload light turns on.
    Has this every happened to anyone else out there….?

    My guess is that you are at the threshold to the limit of your APC. When we have the digideck on, it won’t trigger the apc, but sometimes when it kicks in the tape transport it will trigger the APC tone for a short blip.

    So with the extra draw from the computing power needed and the heat displaced, then the extra “fanage” needed probably tips the draw. I’d think about a bigger APC, or go through 2 of them.
