Multi-GPU Scaling: What 1 vs 2 GPUs Actually Does for Rendering (2026 Benchmark)
Rendering

We measured 1x to 2x GPU scaling on dual RTX 5090 and 4090 nodes across Cycles, Redshift, V-Ray and Octane, and why a second card rarely doubles render speed.

Octane on a Cloud Render Farm: GPU Rendering, OctaneBench Pricing, and DCC Support in 2026
Rendering

OctaneRender is GPU-only and unforgiving about VRAM — how it runs on a cloud render farm: RTX 5090 nodes, OctaneBench-hour billing, and the DCCs it fits.

Corona vs V-Ray in 2026: A Render Farm Comparison for Archviz Teams
Rendering

Corona's CPU-only simplicity versus V-Ray's CPU+GPU control. We compare Chaos's two render engines across host apps, distributed rendering, licensing, and real render farm cost — with a decision framework for archviz teams.
