x5 number of lights on
What is max number of lights being processed at one time? Is it set by program or by video card?

it is set by the video card
most cards have a max of 8 lights - more lights cost more $$$
Chief only uses lights in the room that the camera is in
raytracing uses the cpu and can use any/all lights available

8 lights for that card, you can have more lights in the plan, it just won't use over that amount
