Is there any possible way to accelerate 3D rendering in 3ds max when all you have under the hood are dual 7900GTXs? I know they're not meant for professional work, but is there any imaginable way (short of new card or cards) to cut down on render times? My 6800NU was faster... (and no I didn't softmod it)

I dont know about Max, but Maya 7.0.1 has a renderer option "Maya hardware" that works fine with my 7900 GT. There are probably some features that won't work, but everything I've tried so far has worked. Maybe check the renderer's settings dialog(s)? Sorry, I don't know max at all.
 
Someone at a different forum mentioned RAM and CPU affecting render times the most, should I try tightening my RAM timings? They're a bit loose (3-4-4-8). Those timings are designed for DDR500 operation, but the RAM is currently at DDR432.
