Title: Graphics Card suggestion - currently using Quadro M4000
Post by: gregcicle on 2017-11-15, 13:39:05

Hi,

I'm thinking of buying a GTX 1080 Ti during the Black Friday sales. I currently have a Quadro M4000 but I was wondering if it was worth buying the GTX? I just assumed it'd handle interactive rendering better but I'm no expert on the matter (Still learning).

Sorry if this topic has been discussed before. Pretty sure it has but I can't remember what forum!

corona is cpu only, so a graphics card will (for now) only help with viewport performance.

o.m.g, I knew that too lol Such an idiot.

Thanks for clarifying - I'll go stare thoughtfully into the ocean.
