    New Rig for 3d Works compatible with old pc

    But cuda is also a workstation card isnt it if u are talking about nvidia quadro, or is there any other cards with cuda enabled @ Ishu You are right in that poly count is not huge in my scenes, but they tend to get ram heavy and usually take a lot of time for a single frame rendering, bcoz, i...
