For now I can reveal a little bit of secret that the setup has rendering speed od 24x GTX 780 6GB (or first titans), which is around 6 quad workstations  on air :)

 See you in the next video :)

@smicha Are you planning to do this again with the 1080ti when (if) they launch it later this year?

 

EDIT: Realised Octane only supports CUDA

I would not count on 1080ti - current rumors make no sense to me. 1070 is of great value and power saver, Titian X is way too expensive and we have to wait for fully optimized Octane for Pascals on Cuda 8.

but can it run crisis?

 

that's gonna be one hell of a facebook/catbrowsing machine.

 

Can we get a rough idea of what this is costing you?

 

Did you get a discount buying that many gtx1080s??

Sorry, no games at all :) No sli, no funky blinking lights, gaming stuff - just pure industrial power :)

 

20k EUR. No discount at all. Free shipping :(

no discounts that's rough.

 

can i ask how you arrived at 14? hardware constraints or is there some hard math dictating the exact floating points your presumably massive processing(s) require?

just rendering speed - 2 gpus are 2x faster than 1 for Octane, 14x are 14x faster than 1, but I had to use 2 licences :) Next one will be on 20 gpus on a single licence - stay tuned :)

huge.

 

such an incredible machine - do you know if it's going to be used continuously or will the owners have downtime that that GPU power could be rented out/?

 

also, what made you go consumer grade GPUs over some of the ones aimed more at rendering workloads and not so much at gaming ( hate to say it but on the red side of the isle...) ??

it's rather continuous rendering but if you are interested in renting 4 titans remotely I have one machine at greet price/h - PM me or email at smicha7@gmail.com. 

 

We don't need quadro nor tesla with dual precision for rendering - gtx series are best and the only reasonable choice. We are still waiting for AMD support for Octane.

what kind of thing does your client want to render?

I wonder how you must feel after the 1080 ti release, same cost as the GTX 1080 + it has no freaking DVI port.
