[13:45] -mrHelpman- Hello and welcome to #3dsmax. This is a NO WAREZ channel, please do NOT ask us
[13:54] <nhx> guys how much would preformance increase if u had two grafic cards instead of o
[13:54] <nhx> im talking about two http://www.komplett.se/k/ki.aspx?sku=361818
[13:54] <nhx> or should i instead spend more money on fast cpu and alot of ram?
[13:57] <suurland> two cards is only for games I think
[13:57] <nhx> ah goodie
[13:58] <nhx> so go for shitloads of ram and fast hd?
[14:07] <TheBat> i heard the 2 videocards had something like 10% performance increase on game
[14:08] <sikstyles> Shit fast, bears are coming.
[14:08] <nhx> ah
[14:08] <nhx> well i dont play games :)
[14:08] <nhx> i only play with 3ds max , after effects and flash
[14:08] <nhx> so go for like 8gb ram and 10k rpm hd what u think?
[14:08] <sikstyles> I play kamasutra.
[14:08] <TheBat> (did not really bother to check the facts out...), but if you ask me, much r
[14:08] <flashed> two grafic cards will have the same performance if they're not sli'ed
[14:09] <flashed> if they are i think 3dsmax has to be coded to take advantage of that
[14:09] <flashed> wich isnt
[14:09] <diffx> 2 videocards in sli/crossfire have an average of 50% performance gain afaik
[14:09] <flashed> so yeah.. more ram and cpu!!
[14:09] <nhx> cool
[14:09] <diffx> for max, no need for sli like flashed just said :)
[14:09] <nhx> im looking at http://www.komplett.se/k/ki.aspx?sku=344771 and 2x http://www.kom
[14:10] <diffx> nhx: take a look at the e8400, might be a better buy
[14:10] <nhx> okies
[14:10] <nhx> and then just clock it or?
[14:11] <diffx> when i bought the 8400, i saved about 100 euro's while they don't differ much
[14:11] <diffx> clock it?
[14:11] <nhx> hm not sure for the english word..
[14:11] <nhx> make it go 4ghz instead of 3
[14:11] <diffx> oh overclocking
[14:11] <diffx> dunno, never did that, happy with it the way it is
[14:12] <nhx> oki :)
[14:12] <diffx> but they're pretty good for overclocking yes
[14:12] <nhx> what grafic card did you buy?
[14:12] <diffx> geforce 8800GT
[14:12] <TheBat> :)
[14:12] <diffx> great price for good performance (at least it was when i bought it)
[14:12] <TheBat> good card, fantastic price :)
[14:12] <nhx> ill check :)
[14:13] <nhx> ur stuff renders quick with the e8400? =)
[14:13] <diffx> i hardly render at home, using renderfarm for that
[14:14] <diffx> but it's pretty decent
[14:14] <diffx> however if you want to use it for rendering a lot, get yourself a quadcore
[14:14] <TheBat> ok, night time for me. have a good day / night further on!
[14:14] <diffx> cya
[14:14] <nhx> ah
[14:14] <nhx> but i read somewere max cant work with the quad?
[14:14] <nhx> is that true?
[14:15] * Arielana slaps Anvile around a bit with a large trout
[14:15] <diffx> max itself will only use the quad cores if you render
[14:15] <diffx> and if you render, it will fully use all 4 cores
[14:15] <diffx> while working in the viewport, or with particles etc, it'll use 1
[14:15] <nhx> oh
[14:15] <nhx> hm
[14:15] <Anvile> ?
[14:15] <nhx> so how much faster would it go with a quad u think? and wich to choose?
[14:15] * Arielana hides the trout
[14:15] <diffx> depends on what you want to do :)
[14:16] <nhx> :)
[14:16] <nhx> things i do atm take 38 hrs to render on my lapto
[14:16] <nhx> laptop its a 2ghz duo
[14:16] <nhx> :/
[14:16] <diffx> i choose a dual core, because i hardly ever render/encode at home, so no need
[14:16] <nhx> ye
[14:17] <diffx> well, that's up to you
[14:17] <Arielana> FATALITY
[14:17] <diffx> i've got to go too
[14:17] <Arielana> ;)
[14:17] * Anvile eats Arielana's trout
[14:17] <nhx> okie mate thanks for the help :)
