Nvidia Quadro Blender Cycles
Adding hardware accelerated ray tracing to cycles.
Nvidia quadro blender cycles. Recently blender 2 8. Over the past few months nvidia worked closely with blender institute to deliver a frequent user request. Ubuntu on windows blender 2 69 64bit koro cpu blend. In order to use a quadro 5000 card which is old but still a bargain used buy run blender version 2 65 it recognizes the card on linux mint.
Probably based on nvidia compute capability. 55m 07s windows blender 2 69 64bit koro cpu blend. The standard bmw test image renders out in 53 38 seconds on default settings on my main machine its been running for over 30 minutes and is no where near drawn yet. So even the ubuntu on windows version is 18 minutes faster than the native windows binary which is a real interesting result.
Nvidia rtx core ray tracing operations are now hardware accelerated by the gpu making this the fastest version of cycles yet brecht van lommel lead architect blender nvidia quadro rtx blender cycles rendering solutions for blender cycles nvidia quadro provides a wide range of rtx enabled. Cycles rendering rejected a nvidia 670m mobile card in laptop 01. This is 2 69 though so this is more of an experiment than a real useful result for modern blender.
