At least you were polite hahaha! Yeah.. I know that GPU rendering is going to be a feature and render engines try to do it in GPU (more power in GPUs). Right now not all the render engines do that. Anyway.. I think I have to research again what to do. Thanks for the info btw it helps a lotThis would have been correct about a year or so ago but even blender is now taking advantage of Nvidia CUDA cores in its latest build and GPU rendering kicks the shit out of CPU rendering now. That's not even taking into consideration other even faster GPU render engine add ons like Octane or E-cycles. GPU tech is progressing much faster for rendering purposes than CPU's ever will be able to, even CPU render farms are starting to be replaced with GPU render farms for smaller projects (I think larger projects like films still use CPU farms for their stability and memory requirements). Get a CPU that can keep up at least but if render quality and time is what you're after then your best bet for now are Nvidia cards. That's not to say AMD won't be more supported by render engines in the future (not Daz iray though) but for now it really seems like that is what Nvidia is trying to lock in place and get the 3D artist crowd as AMD goes more for the gaming side of things.
