With 5 nodes Twin X5660 Xeons = Intelligent configuration =)

RAW cost:

Twin X5660 =  1.300 euro x 5 =  6500 euro

(*) 980 GTX = 500 euro * 10 = 5000
(*) 3 PC nodes = 500 euro * 3 =1500
(*) TOT =  6500 euro

With 10x 980GTX you can do a lot of things, very fast for interior... but:

(*) 4 GB VRAM (forget complex outdoor projects)
(*) 10 GPU + 3 nodes eat  A LOT, A LOT of electricity! More than 5 double Xeons, believe me!

Honestly, I prefer Xeon Config.

Hi,
For fun, test with Corona. Core I7 5960X - GTX 980 et Titan X.
13 et 14 mn.
For now, invest time and money in a GPU solution is far too expensive. Until two days ago, I worked with Lightwave and Octane. To work properly with Octane, ie without noise, you need ten to twelve video cards Titan X or GTX 980i.
My friend Richard - Ensign3D - work with twelve cards. Investment from 12,000 to 14,000 € !!!! and put 20 minutes to make an interior scene when I put in 40 to render the same scene with Max and Corona - € 290 / month.
I prefer Corona !
Now, Corona with Lightwave, I am not against.

Hi Team,
I'm new to 3ds max and corona.
So far, I worked on Lightwave and his interactive rendering (VPR on LW) always on.
I kept the same habitude with Corona and I think it would be a good idea to block the interactive view to the camera or another view and not change every time you click a different view? What about you?
Thanks for your work, very appreciate and ... sorry for my poor english !
