Bane, when you link your GFX they work as a pair or in tandem, as he pointed out here. If he didn't link them, then they work independently. It's highly likely he is using one rig with two GFX. One GFX is for CS and the other is for rendering.

As KillJoys said, it's most likely the CS part that is eating up most of the time. But that is due to how many characters, event locations, placement, etc. But his rendering usually takes 5 or 6 days after his CS percent moves up. If he was using both GFX he could reduce that time even further.

But I do think you're having a "lost in translation" moment.
if he used 2 gfx for the render, he couldn't create the scene or am I wrong?
it wouldn't be better to have 2 pc
1 for the scenes and 1 for the render?

Thanks for the clarification, but it's hard for me to understand. There are several factors that hinder me, insufficient technical literacy in this matter and probably an inaccurate translation.
But in any case, thank you.

It slows down the process for rendering and you could run into program issues with the CS side or both, DAZ issues, and hardware resources problems. That's why it's recommended to either CS first then Render, CS on one rig and render on another, or use an outside source, render farming.

I wrote wrong, I meant 2 physically separate PC

Biker bar was a big scene, 25GB, NVlink bridge was working but DAZ, again :confused: did not recognize NVlink. So couldn't work a scene larger than 24GB.
I don't know if he managed to get it to work.

Over 24 GB VRAM is a shed load to use and I still doubt that the 2nd card was really needed unless he had large amounts of geometry and textures,still seems like an over kill to me.
That is a massive 48 GB with over 21,000 rendering cores and double the RTX/Tensor cores.

With two cards (without NVLink), Iray sends data to both cards and synchronizes the render so rendering speed becomes close to 2X. Although 3090 feels fast, I would never refuse faster rendering and thus multiple cards.

The last lie was that (in january) he was going to start rendering much faster because he bought three 3090s, 9 months later we find out he's only using one of those and trying to connect the second one now.
This is not what he did.
Looks like you don't understand what NVLink did in this case.
In his case he had to use NVLink to link two of his GPUs together to increase the usable amount of vram because the 24 GB of VRAM wasn't enough for this scene.
NVLink made it possible to add the vram of two GPUs together to be used for that scene.
To make it a bit more simple, NVLink made it so that those two GPUs acted like one single big one for rendering purposes instead of two separate ones.

Edit:
To explain it a bit more.
If you have three GPUs with 24 GB VRAM each you might think that you have 72 GB of usable VRAM for rendering purposes but that's wrong.
You only have 24 GB because for each card to be able to work on the same scene the same data has to be inside the VRAM of each GPU meaning that if a scene takes up 12.4 GB of VRAM then all three of your GPUs have that 12.4 GB scene in their VRAM and the only way to circumvent that limitation in this case is NVLink.
Disadvantage is that if you only have three 3090s then only the two GPUs linked via NVLink can work on that scene.
You would need four 3090s and two NVLink bridges to be able to use all four GPUs for scenes needing more than 24 GB.

Edit2:
Here is a link to see how much VRAM is roughly needed for Gen 8 figures (tl;dw 14 models 17.8 GB VRAM)
But keep in mind that the scene in the video is very simple so a more complex scene also means higher VRAM usage.

I still believe that Alyssa will have a part to play in solving the Aiden problem.
I have no concrete evidence to support this though
Agreed, Sophia should suck it up and get external help and be able to overcome the Aiden obstacle. She might realize finally how this is progressing and be more assertive. I like the idea of the two of them finding a clever trap for him that will seem he is in control then they spring their own surprise and cause him to back out/quit - maybe permanently. It might need to be a little inventive but that is what L&P is good for. It sound like some good interpersonal activities to bring them closer together.

Similar tendency to all over the world. Too eager to criticize but too lazy to fact-check. :rolleyes:

All I have to say is that I was right..............
Sam does indeed give Sophia a lift home, so will Liam ruin everything by calling Sophia :LOL:
Let me have a guess at this. It doesn't matter if I'm completely off the mark, because by the time the update comes out this will be totally forgotten. I've previously had a lot to say about the event because I was looking forward to it. So, we know from the "blur" that the sisters dance provocatively & of course they have an eager audience. Chanting, or some associated factor leads to Patricia showing Sophia's mutant twins, e.g. with a pull down of the shoulder straps, to a by now rampant crowd. It could be one of the men that does this but I'll stick with the innate exhibitionist factor.

All hell breaks loose, at which point various things occur rapidly, so much that it has to be transferred to a DLC. As the sisters argue &/or adjust their clothing & go their separate ways the concert ends in confusion. Sam goes to check on Sophia, etc. Maybe the police are present but it ends with the lift from Sam. As for Liam phoning, based on Dev prior form, I estimate he'll do this just as things are getting interesting.

I fervently hope most of the above is wrong, wrong, wrong. Time will tell.....hopefully.

Yes.just think back to the Tyler/Sophia event, but this time it could be Liam calling Sophia

Why....why aiden giving 12 tasks to sophia..?
If he wants to fuck her then fuck her..but why
It has been hinted at that even though Aiden acts like a cheap hood and a punk he indeed has a classical education and a sense of humor. His intention is to put Sofia through 12 labors like Heracles. Why he chose to do this is anybody's guess, but how far he is going to be able to mirror the tasks is unclear since most of them were things like murder, theft, and dognapping. However, there are going to be some convenient stables for her to clean if he goes that route.

The 12 labors:

Slay the Nemean lion.
Slay the nine-headed Lernaean Hydra.
Capture the Ceryneian Hind.
Capture the Erymanthian Boar.
Clean the Augean stables in a single day.
Slay the Stymphalian birds.
Capture the Cretan Bull.
Steal the Mares of Diomedes.
Obtain the girdle of Hippolyta, queen of the Amazons.
Obtain the cattle of the three-bodied giant Geryon.
Steal three of the golden apples of the Hesperides.
Capture and bring back Cerberus.

To some extent, it's sad that you don't really understand what I'm talking about. It's sad, because I prefer dialogue and mutual understanding to scandals, swearing and accusations.
I didn't say what I believe here, I think it's unlikely that every working day of L&P lasts 11 hours, but again, the question is, what is considered work? If intellectual, creative work, the time when he thinks about the script, the content of dialogues, etc. is considered, then perhaps his working day even exceeds 11 hours a day.

You say that L&P is lying, and I say that L&P has shared its plans with us. Unfortunately, our plans are not always possible to implement, I am an adult boy and I know that this happens.
It's just that our views and assessments are different, I'm not saying which of us is right, only time can show this.

Again, if we talk about lies and faith. If I, like you, believed that L&P was a liar, then we would not argue with you, because I would not be here.
Bane71 just a thought. I chose the"Ignore" function a long time ago for the poster you are valiantly trying to converse with. It is amazing how it cleaned up the thread. I based my decision on the toxicity and the repetitiveness that was evident. Just a thought.:)

Can anyone explain to me how come that after reducing the update to 1/3 of the day instead of half a day, it's still takes around 5 months every time?
It's his expenses,he keeps on adding new stuff to the list
