Go here: https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html Buy the fastest card with the most RAM, that you can reasonably afford. The value rankings are good too, you can see which card gives you the best performance for the money. I usually like to cross-reference this list with the overall performance…

Nothing against that, just wondering how much they are charging so I know what i am competing with. Here In the UK the daily rate can vary from 100 to 200 pounds a day. some folks may…
Yes I googled sharpest lenses . Those would be Sigma ones for sony e-mount and they are not that much expensive too. I just wonder if they do any difference vs this TTArtisan 23 mm or even kit lens when set at f/8 or f/5.6 I don't like too soft mesh details I get from a6000 with those apertures and it's definitely not a…
Can someone point me in the direction of the announcement confirming that some of the features I was expecting in the much delayed 1.9 have been abandoned and moved into version 2.0? And also, can someone point me in the direction of anything I can find that will tell me if I'm going to have to pay to upgrade to version…
A $400 graphics card is a bit excessive, it'd be better and cheaper in the long run to spend $250 on a card now (Like a 660ti), and spend $200 more on a new card in 2-4 years. A graphics card will always be out performed by cheaper cards in 2 years. Also having more ram might be better than just having a high end gpu, 8…

Done with the Feisar! Yeah, I really like Feisar and Wipeout. It was insanely fun to work with and NDO Painter and DDO Painter worked really well even on a heavy asset like this (Over 5 million tris and 3x8k materials). Real-time screenshots, textured entirely with the SUITE 2.0. I'll be making a tutorial on how I textured…
