Cool, thanks - really valuable info! Wouldn't game and render at once. But if the 3090 is driving the monitor whilst it's trying to render, everything crawls to a halt, and you can't really edit the scene as you go. So I plug the monitor into the second card and then you can scroll around...

Yeah, correct. There's some mild bottleneck with pipelining the data if you go too slow on the cpu - but it's pretty much all gpu driven. To the extent that my old build had an i7 6700k and didn't really slow me down. Good advice thanks. Huh. I guess you could now. Didn't used to be...

I haven't in the old rig, because I'm too lazy to switch cables over. I have mulled installing a KVM, so I can lazily hit a button to switch modes, but I'm not super sure how happy a PC would be about using the out from both cards at once, so haven't tried it. Whilst you can use Octane with...

Hey, The combination of my old PSU failing, and Microsoft forcing Win11 upgrades (my old mobo isn't up to it), means I'm considering a new PC. I use this machine for rendering computer art using Octane which adds a couple of wrinkles to the build. Firstly Octane is GPU focused meaning that...

Which rendering software and animation tool are you using? Many of them are GPU focused now, so the i9 might well be overkill.
