Chaos Corona for 3ds Max > [Max] General Discussion

Will Corona take advantage of announced Xeon Phi accelerator ?

<< < (2/3) > >>

Ondra:
I'm not saying it is bad, it still looks more attractive, than GPU rendering ;)

Dom74:
That wasn't so true before Corona.

Paul Jones:
8gb is plenty - well at least it does me, and my 2.5gb gfx card fits most of my interior scenes in with iray

Dom74:
glimmers of hope

Realish:
Something to remember with both GPU rendering and this new phi processor is the RAM they have goes further.  This is because they don't need to store the OS + 3D program + whatever else on the GPU or Phi's RAM.  The only thing stored on the RAM on these will be the actual scene data with the rendering code needed.  This makes 8 GB on these cards work more like 12GB to 16GB or so on a full computer system.
