thanks stefan!

interesting would be if possible:
one gtx 480 and later on one of the new teslas like c2070

the pcie- connection on mac pro allows 300 w, so i guess a gtx 480 could make some problems

(i guess thats the reason you only can configure one ati 5870 and not two...)

well if they are finally available, i ´ll have to check...

intersting would be if vray rt in the future will be able to work with ati, but i`m afraid you are not allowed to talk about such features..

It will work with ATI cards. Just look at Vlados Vray RT GPU preview on youtube. I think he said specifically that they will implement support for both manufacturerers, so that you aren't tied down to one.

ahh thanks chris.. didn´t know they are already that far... cheerz rob

Didn't know that either for quite some time - makes waiting for it even harder

yes vray rt is NOT cuda based, but open CL, which supports all cards, not only nvidia.
