gtx titan

[BANKROBBER]

i have a question regarding CUDA cores in 3d studio max.....rendering.
at present i have sli gtx680's....fantastic at gaming but i like to render in 3d etc.i found out that in the 600 nvidia cards the cuda cores were not seen by iray and it would only render using my cpu's
ok a quadro card is specifically for that i know,but its nice to have an all-rounder!
now....i am thinking of upgrading to either dual 690 cards or dual titan.
is the titan a 700 series card and will the cuda cores be utilised in 3d studio?
as the cards are the same price in the u.k,either look viable,but i am favouring the titan card.
i have even thought of adding a tesla card for really intensive stuff too....fluidic motion and particle flow in animation etc.
any comments would be appreciated......before i sell my kidney to fund this lot!!

hands down titan, cause you can always upgrade to another titan. gtx 690 is end of life

Once you say
rendering, Titan is
your best choice.

He structures his post like the notes he passes to bank tellers.

No wonder
he has money
for
a titan.

.....the rendering on this comp is awesome!!
these cards have made such a difference to my render times and quality.for me it is well worth the cost and still have a good gamer spec too.

Since you are self-employed and robbing banks to fund gpu buying. Then send me the 2 680s then.

Enjoy the new gpus, they are some very nice video cards. Glad people can get what they want/need and enjoy the stuff.
