Does DS finally support RTX 3090?

    Yes, starting with version 4.12.2.31

    So 4.14.0.10 is the newest. I got an older version 4.12.xx something because I always had problems with rendering with the newer versions. Are there any issues know with the 4.14 versions? For example the newest nvidia drivers or how well does it take the RTX 3090?

    It would be easier if someone who uses RTX 3090 GPUs could tell me about their experience. Currently I got 2 Titan RTX installed and the 3090s are just lying around. Before I replace them I want to be sure that everything will be fine.

    If you want, I can run extended tests on your 3090, so as, not to interrupt your set-up.

    How exactly you wanna do that? It's enough if someone with RTX 3090 GPUs could tell me if everything works fine with Daz 4.14

    I think Sevrin is being a little sarcastic (if you don't want to install your 3090, let us try it out for you).  The 3090 works fine (actually more than fine) with Daz Studio 4.14; make sure your driver version is at least 456.48 (as is listed in the release notes for 4.14) to make sure it can make use of the newest version of Iray which supports Ampere video cards.  There are numerous benchmarks already posted on 3090 performance (single 3090, dual 3090 and 3090 with various other cards as well) for Iray rendering and let's just say it easily blows away all the previous generation cards (it is at least 2x faster than a 2080 Ti and 4-5x faster than a 1080 Ti).  It will even perform at par or slightly better than your current two Titan RTX cards working together.  I would say go ahead and install the 3090 in your system.

    Well, actually the RTX 3090 must be also more than 2x faster than the Titan RTX since it has 10.496 cuda cores whereas the Titan has just 4608 cuda cores. Why do you say it only performs "slightly better than your current two Titan". So, currently I got 2x4608=9216 cuda cores. With two RTX 3090 I would have 2x10496=20992 cuda cores. So, how can it be only "slightly faster"????????????

    A single 3090 (it-singular pronoun) would be "slightly faster" than two Titans.  Two 3090s would obv be lots faster.

    I was comparing a single 3090 to two Titan RTX in my comment.  Based on benchmarks, two 3090 more than blows away two Titan RTX.

    One needs to be careful about comparing CUDA cores between generations--the Ampere cards handle CUDA operations differently from Pascal/Turing cards.  The 3090 actually only has 5248 physical CUDA cores on the chip, but it performs two iterations per cycle during operation, making it perform as if it has 10496 cores.  For this reason one cannot just look at the amount of CUDA cores compared to previous generations and make assumptions about performance.
