PC without a graphics card

[XaviJS]

Last year I was messing around with 3DS MAX too and I discovered more or less what you're talking about. To do the final rendering, it is true that it uses a lot of CPU if you use the default parameters, but I think there are other rendering modes in which you can take full advantage of the graphics and it is much faster than with the CPU. I can't tell you exactly how to configure it, I left it and never touched it again. I can tell you loose names: CUDA, iRAY, I can't remember more xD. I'll leave you a video that compares a rendering using CPU and GPU:

By the way, if you finally decide to use the CPU for rendering, you might gain some pico if you put an external graphics card to free the CPU from having to process what is shown on the monitor. Research a little about this of rendering using the GPU to see if it compensates you. EDIT 1: I'll leave you another video that I found:

Saludos!

I've been reading something about GPU rendering. For now it seems that the topic is too green to be taken completely seriously. As for putting an external graphics card so that it doesn't consume processor, the PC will be used exclusively with remote desktop from another PC with a Quadro from where it will be previewed and another non-raw work will be done.

Anyway, it's a computer that is expected to be expanded. They are already thinking about the 32 Gb of RAM and as soon as there is conclusive results about the benefits of CUDA, they will put not one, but the amount of graphics cards necessary to optimize performance with the least amount of money.

For now, they are playing it safe. In 6 months or a year we will see how the topic evolves.

Ah perfect, I didn't read that it would be used remotely. So, if you prefer the robustness that CPU rendering offers… The more beastly the better xD

Best regards!

For the price you have, I wouldn't eat any more of the jar. And also, that micro has gpu, right?

In fact it has an HD4600 which, for being integrated, has a pretty decent performance. The only problem with the integrated is the access to RAM and the fact that it consumes a percentage of the RAM, but if it's going to be controlled by remote desktop and it's going to have 16 Gb of RAM, these are two harmless issues.

What I doubt the most is the motherboard, but I really don't have many options in terms of chipset with this budget. Be that as it may, I'll place the order tomorrow.

Hello everyone
I don't want to be a party pooper, but... that power supply is not adapted to the amperage needs of the new SOCKET 1150
It lacks a 12v connection at 0.05 amp

Hola a todos
No me gustaria ser un aguafiestas, pero…esa fuente no esta adaptada para las necesidades del amperaje de los nuevos SOCKET 1150
Falta una conexion de 12v a 0.05 amp

The manufacturer says it's compatible: http://nox-xtreme.com/producto/urano-vx-650w/57/. Why are you saying that?

If you are so kind "copy and paste" part of the text where it specifies, I do not see it ;D
