    Hi

    of course .


    Gigabyte switch ?

    maybe a 1.5 ? would solve your problems

      is 3.7 milion faces to much for vray to render....anything higher than 400x300 and it halts the machine to a complete stop....

            yup...or is it because im using a setting to high for this scene. maybe a simple lighting would do...i tried scanline and it was ok..

                What are your machine specs?

                I can render 4+ million poly's with GI, area lights and at 9,000 pretty regularly....
                but then we have dual xeons with 4 gigs of ram and the 3gb switch on windows xp... pretty lucky

                  Mine is dual xeon 3.06 with 1mb cache and 2gb ram...maybe the is an error with the geometry..

                  By the way guys...im thinking of getting a quad xeon...i and a friend of mine rendered an identical max file ...his clock 9 min and i did 13...funny thing is his was an older xeon 2ghz 1mb cache machine.

                    generally speaking, unless you got a really good deal on the mobo and processors, quad layouts aren't really worth the price.

                      youre right about the price - speed...but this is a second hand machine so the price tag is minimal, anyway it beat the time on my fastest machine by 4 min which is quite impressive. i was thinking of purchasing it and making it render all my work while i model with the other...

                          reza.

                          maybe you take a look at the taskmanager. at which hight of memory does your computer breake down.

                          are you sure, you did install the gigabyte switch to tell window, not only to be able to use word, but also a real programm ?

                          at the moment i am rendering an interior of a huge ship with about 7.5 to 8 million polys, hdri, sunlight as vray, and over 100 single lights.

                          it nearly goes to the limit but does do the job.

                          so what are your settings ?

                            i tried doing the gigabyte switch in the boot.ini but everytime i try to use it...the comp restart again..
                            so im using the normal boring way....im using se7505vb2 intel motherboard...

                              Hi Reza,

                              I've rendered a scene with 19 million polys without any trouble. I also have
                              4GB of RAM but if you've got 2GB I'd presume you should be able to render
                              10 million at least.

                              Heve you tried turning on the Bitmap Pager in the rendering settings? I know it help when rendering larger scenes (pixel count), perhaps it might be usefule here.
