Well, maybe he also want to use the graphic card to play some games? I mean, in my way of work, i've been offered a Quadro by my office, but i rejected it and get an GeForce instead. Why? Because, aside of working, i also want to blow up steam and play some games. And like you said, it was cheaper.Every time i hear DPC has state of the art equipment i ask myself.. Do you really know the difference between a Game Play graphic card and a hardware rendering graphic card?
For example.. Ask Disneys Pixar how many 4090's GeForce cards they used while rendering any of there New Animated Movies..
The Answer is Zero. Non.
I have 2 years of film school and rendering digital Video was a big part of the final product. We used Graphic cards built for Video rendering. They are far more expensive because they have built in hardware. If the Game Play card costs about 900$, The Pro video render card might cost you 9000$. I am not gonna List brands or actual cards here.. Anyone who wants to know can Google. But in my experience the cheaper card took many hours to do what the Pro card did in Minutes.
You all claim DPC is a Millionaire.. So may be he should invest in some real hardware and even consider pay for some extra Help. Could speed up release from 1 year to 4-5 months
Yeah, I think those "net worth" websites are total BS. A close friend of mine is out in Los Angeles and has been trying to become a professional actor for close to 30 years. He's had bit parts in a few shitty movies and self-funded a few series on YouTube. He works in tech and earns decent money, but spends it all self-funding his projects. He's generally broke and has even had to borrow money from his dad and brother. But a couple years ago he popped up on one of these sites with a net worth of several million dollars. He doesn't even own a home! Gave us all a good laugh.
The MSRP of an RTX 4090 is $1599. The times when the most expensive gaming graphics card cost under $1000 are long over.Every time i hear DPC has state of the art equipment i ask myself.. Do you really know the difference between a Game Play graphic card and a hardware rendering graphic card?

Given that neither of us are his accountant, or indeed the good Doctor himself, we’ll never actually known.
Now that whole statement I can totally get behind, and that was actually my whole point. It's guaranteed that he made at least 300k over 2 years and a near certainty that he made more and probably WAY more.
Those estimates are impressive and all but you need to remember that both GOG/Steam take fees(30%).
We don't know. But if you just take your time to read couple pages back, i think you could found someone post calculation and estimation for the next update. IF you just take your time to READ. Just in case you didn't notice my sarcasm.
I'm going to start insulting everyone that continues to ask this stupid-ass question. Either you're a bot or someone who has managed to go their whole life without using their brain so it doesn't matter what I say; calling you a brainless crackpot is underselling it.
There has been some discussion over whether or not an A6000 type card would be a good option for DPC, but the main benefit he would see on one of those cards over the $1,500-$2,000 RTX4090's he just more memory. They are using the same chips, built on the same dies, and while the A6000 uses better performing chips, not by much. So, really, all the A6000 does is give him the ability to do more complicated scene, and that just means he would spend more time using up that memory.Every time i hear DPC has state of the art equipment i ask myself..

Nope. The gameplay is showing us that every tiny choice you make has a consequence.
It's not even that any more. The A6000 ADA isn't significantly faster than an RTX 4090. It is more efficient, they can be linked together, and they have more memory, but it is the same technology at the core, and for what DPC is doing, it just isn't going to speed things up. That's the thing, the state of the art in computer technology really is being put into the highest end consumer graphics cards.
