Thank you!
I want to thank all of you for your support and encouragement. A special thanks to my patrons which I still can't believe I have at this point.
This was the surprise I was talking about. I have joined green team and retired my old Radeon Vega 64 that did not help me at all with rendering. My CPU was doing all the work, taking 1 to 1.5 hours per render. This should speed things up dramatically, and I expect the quality to improve as well.
I would have never bought a GPU like this if I wasn't making this AVN.

So, it is installed and running. The rendering for the cast (the cover image for this page and the main menu background for the AVN) went from a 1hr30 min render to 6 minutes. I am now the bottleneck. :-)
Woohoo! You are going to be smiling from ear to ear once you start rendering with that bad boy. You picked the perfect card too! You're lucky you waited for those to be released.
I was scared, because the gaming reviews have not been kind, but rendering wise, this thing should do really well. I will do some benchmarks hopefully tonight.
