yep, looks nice. I'm also wondering if redshift can use the combined vram when using several cards in sli mode, if you have 3 titans, can you use 3x6gb or just 6gb for your scene?
a tree scene like that, at that rez would probably take a few hours in arnold or vray, so even at 30m in redshift it's still very fast.. still, at 30m a frame you won't exactly be able to render full shots without a farm, and once you work with even heavier scenes I imagine you are looking at rendertimes of several hours per frame, and at that point I don't think the gpu will speed anything up, quite the opposite.
