Render nodes

Hi All

 

We're looking into buying a dedicated render node to sit in the back room with our servers.

 

Somthing like 2 x dual quad core machines each with 8gb ram.

 

We'll be running distributed rendering on Vray and Mental ray for animation and still projects. May also be looking at rendering from After effects and Premier.

 

Boxx systems look pretty good to me, although we work off dell's.

Has anyone had any problems with Boxx and/or does anyone have any alternatives which are available in the UK.

 

We are really looking for not only very reliable pcu's but also excellent technical support and customer service, the last thing I want ot do is recommend a system and then the compnay shuts down in 3 months.

 

Thanks a lot

I've been with Boxx for 6 years now and I have absolutely no complaints. Service is excellent. The only problem. We had a damaged rendernode when we received our order for 4 render nodes and they replaced it no questions asked and it was sent before they had received the defective one! Now thats service!

 

My 2 cents
