Hey Chad,
1. With Redshift it will roll over (out-of-core) to system ram once the
vram is filled, which does slow the performance down (though its still
faster than cpu rendering). As an example when I was comparing a 780 (3Gb)
to a titan (6Gb) on smaller scenes they were fairly evenly matched, on

The cheapest option would be any brand with the reference design coolers,

Along these lines - which 980ti would you guys recommend? I found this an

separate fan to mount in the back of the cabinet - pretty cool.

Depends on which card you end up going with. But even a 970 x 4 will draw
900 leaving you with 600 room for the rest. And that could be fine
initially. But consider the fact that power supply ubits become less
efficient over time and will start to output less wattage.

You don't need anything bigger as a matter of fact I'm running that exact
PSU for 4x Titan X, and before them it was pushing 4x Titans.
Nothing more is needed. 1200W is cutting it a bit too close but 1500 is
perfectly enough.

Thanks guys for the very comprehensive walkthrough on this topic - this

So for a 4 GPU workstation setup - would you suggest something like the
Corsair AX1500i or should it be bigger?

The conversation was aimed towards renderfarms rather than workstations
though, and I imagine running a render job per gpu rather than per node, so
that the scaling per gpu is much better (ie 100% minus maybe a small hit on
the cpu usage being shared). Could be run headless so no need for a display
Would you guys find the 980Ti hitting the sweetspot between price and
performance?
How about connectors and power supply?
The 970 is running on 2x6pin, e.g. a maximum of 150 Watts plus the 75
Watts from the slot, a 225 Watts total.
The 980ti is mostly 1x6pin and 1x8pin, the 1x8pin offering 1

The 970 is the most cost efficient only with scenes that fit into its
memory - which using redshift is limited to 3.5Gb because of the internal
memory architecture. I'd recommend looking at gpus with 6Gb or higher. The
980ti is a great card for the money, and the extra vram will help

I just mentioned that as well, btw is not SLI, SLI needs to be turned off
when rendering with Redshift but it is rendering with all cards.
But you can always send to render using 1 or 2 GPUs per frame which removes
scaling issues and give you all the power per node.
On Wed, Aug 5, 2015 at 12:51 PM
Hi
Keep in mind SLI efficiency doesn't scale linearly, I read somewhere that
with 2 cards efficiency is close to 90% , while with 4 is around 60%.
