Is V-Ray CPU or GPU?
V-Ray runs on the CPU only and V-Ray GPU runs on the GPU and/or the CPU. As many of you might know: V-Ray processes differently than V-Ray GPU — even when both are running on CPUs. As such, there is no way to get a true apples-to-apples comparison of these two types of hardware.
How do I set V-Ray to default settings?
You can restore, save and load V-Ray settings (in a . vropt file format) from the bottom three buttons in the Settings panel area. The three options are Load Render Settings from File…, Save Render Settings to File…, and Revert to Default Render Settings.
Should I use GPU for V-Ray?
GPU rendering allows V-Ray to perform the raytracing calculations on the GPU cards installed in the system, rather than the CPU. Since GPUs are specifically designed for massively parallel calculations, they can speed up the rendering process by an order of magnitude.
Can V-Ray run without graphics card?
Video Card (GPU) As with the CPU recommendation above, the choice here depends heavily on which version of V-Ray you plan to use. For V-Ray Adv, nothing special is needed from the video card.
Is Lumion better or V-Ray?
As for the timing, lumion is generally speaking faster than Vray, one render takes seconds to minutes while Vray take a bit longer in render if you want higher quality and this is due to the fact that the render in Lumion is by default, while the one with Vray is personalized according to the needs of users.
