Hi Salvador, are you sure this is the subject of this thread??? You're talking of an other problem... I'm talking here about 3DS max 2012 and the PD. Please create your own thread. Thanks. M.

Yes you're right!!! I've a render slave with two E5450, and a little quad Core I7 930 OC à 4.0ghz is equal to this computer... For the I7 990X, this is a HUGE cpu. My workstation is a Z800 with actually only one X5690 (equal to the 990X)...it's powerful, i hope be able to buy the second one quickly! So i can imagine what could be a 990 OC @ more than 4.0ghz!!! Let us know if you buy it... M.

Hi Justin, Here is a copy of my reply to the same question on the official Nvidia forum... "hello, same thing for us. Recently we switched to 3ds max 2012. We have only workstations with Quadro cards. Let me say first that it is a shame to have on your official forum, no response to this kind of question! We're talking about your high-end, professional and very expensive ... Also it seems to me that the price of your cards, compared to gaming cards, including especially the development of professional drivers?! Before 3ds max 2012, we used the 2009. With the performance drivers, there were over 200% improvement. Currently working with Nitrous, we note that there is very little performance gain between a gaming card and high-end Quadro (eg Geforce GTX 480 vs Quadro 4000). With 3ds max 2009, just a Quadro FX 1400 could be faster than a GTX 480 ... Now can you show the interest for us, 3ds max user, to continue to buy such expensive graphics cards rather than high-end games? Since I use 3ds max, I have always used your products for: 780XGL, FX1400, FX3000, FX3500, FX4000, FX4500, FX4600, FX3700, FX4800, 4000 and 5000 last... I've never been disappointed with these products. From 3ds max 2011, I believe that the development of your drivers is very weak ... To return to Nitrous: it is indeed very fast but poorly thought ... It is very heavy to run. Example of the "bugs": -In wireframe, with the vertex of a polygon mode enabled, you can not see the backface edges. -Sometimes the selection box becomes invisible. -In shaded mode with edges, the selected objects become white, not splines. Why?! -Problems with the display of background textures and sometimes ... and I think you can still discover more ... This expresses quite well the disappointment, not your product, but the development is done then to make the most of. I think not be the only one seeing what others say on other forums. I hope you have good news for us. Otherwise I'm really thincking about turning to ATI FireGL, apparently they have good performance, without the specific drivers are actually cheaper. Thank you for keeping us informed of future Quadro with 3ds max! Best," Hope that's help us to get some news from Nvidia! M.

Hi Oanav, yes in some way, you're right... But this was not the final one, it was just a speed preview. The final was a dusk view. M.

As you can see here . There was again a poor render on vray, no time to make good rendering. So the style is different more like mattepainting, but i love to work like this sometimes. thanks for your comments. M. [ATTACH=CONFIG]44783[/ATTACH]

Oh thank you Shane, didn't know about this Hotfix... M.

Does your manager got the lastest backburner (the one with max 2012)?? If all your computer got the lastest backburner, only max 2012 can work with it... Older versions of max are not compatible! Best, M.

Hi, does anyone knows about performance drivers issues for our Nividia Quadro? I'm actually working with the nitrous viewport drivers, not so bad, but sometimes i've got some weird problems... I'm a little bit disapointed when i see that a Nvidia GTX 480 is powerfull than my Quadro 4000 with this viewport! Without performance drivers, any interest to work with Quadros... Thanks for your advice. M.

hi, i've this problem too. The script solution don't work. Has someone got the solution??? Thanx. Max.
