One thing that I can not find the reason is that, when I set the renderer to V-ray ADV, the job is put on the CPU *only*. However, if I use V-ray RT, I can choose between CPU and GPU. Is that normal? Why ADV doesn't use GPU?

Well an 8-core (16 threads) sandybridge should not be more powerful than a Maxwell GPU with 700 cuda cores for these applications. The memory usage of the GPU is about 500MB according to the GPU-Z program and the M2000 has 4GB of memory. I am not a 3ds expert. Can you give me a scenario for a better test? Maybe by tweaking the settings, the CPU loose! How can I find and check the output size and quality?

Hi With 3ds Max 2018 and the V-ray 3.60, I ran a simple rendering job where the frame size is HD (1920x1080). On a Sandybridge 8-core cpu (with hyperthreading it is 16) which is rather an old CPU, the redering took 16 minutes. I also, ran that on a PNY Quadro M2000 and I checked that the GPU is fully loaded. It took 13 minutes to finish the job! I set the renderer to V-ray RT. So, does that comparison make sense?
