DaveSimmons Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Hi there, I would really like some advice on some potential hardware upgrading. I currently have a Mid 2010 Mac Pro - 2x2.66Ghz 6-core intel Xeon, 64GB 1066 DDR3, and ATI Radeon HD 5770. Ideally I would like to stay under OSX as I just prefer it as an operating system, but I do have viewport issues with Houdini and run it in bootcamp once my project gets too large. This is obviously a pain. I would also like to run Octane Renderer under Cinema 4d and this only uses CUDA supported cards, and I believe Houdini supports OpenCL. I would like therefore some advice on a new graphics card that will run both Octane Renderer and improve sim speeds using the GPU in Houdini. Will say the Nvidia Quadro K5000 be a good option for me? Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks, D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tar Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Good news on the viewport part of OsX - next version will be getting a boost. http://www.sidefx.com/index.php?option=com_forum&Itemid=172&page=viewtopic&t=30927 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
