A question on your Ratyrace times. Are using a stop watch from the time you press Ratrace, or are you using the time that it shows you at the top of the screen?
On the old Quadro FX 4800 card, for the default Raytrace at 640 x 480, I get 29 seconds on the top of the secreen but my stop watch gives me 43 seconds because I am including the processing surfaces and export time. Are you including those also in your reported times?Edward Koenig - R.A.

All of my times are stopwatch times (from "Raytrace" press). If you have a smart phone, a stop watch app is handy. The number (time) that shows at the top of the screen is 14 seconds.

The videos we watch are not 100% gold, but if we find a gold nugget, the time spent viewing has a value.
We can please some of the people some of the time, but we can't please all the people all of the time..... but I will keep trying.

Is that a "watercolor" with the "Line Drawing on top" box checked?
If so = 12 seconds flat
If not, clarify process for me and I'll try it.George VanDusen, CPBD, CKD, CID

Ok, this is interesting.
I ran the same camera, water color with line, took 22 seconds, then did final view with shadows. stop watch start when I clicked on final view 1 min, 12 sec.
I was hoping my machine would be close to Scott's, but it is way faster? I ran it 3 times to be sure. I wonder if he has a different line setting?Gary Doski

I don't think so. This computer is already 1-1/2 years old and I'm not impressed with it's performance. I still wish Raytraced interior kitchens with a lot of highhats would render a lot faster. I don't bother with them because they just waste too much time in the office, time that I don't get paid for. Render with shadows is usually good enough, for th exteriors also. The renderings are just added extra eye candy for the client.

I think there is a bug with, wc, lines, shadows. They used to be faster and right now it ***** no matter what system you use.

Uncheck "Aggressive Cache Flushing". This really slows down NVIDIA cards and is there only for compatibility with certain low end cards to work around driver issues. I think we have switched the default to off but it was on by default.

On some cards turning off "Hardware Edge Smoothing" can make a big difference.
