[Chimera-users] multi GPU rendering

[benoit.zuber at ana.unibe.ch]

Hi

Can chimera make use of more than one GPU for 3D rendering? We have 3 Geforce GTX 780 Ti (mainly used for number crunching) on a particular workstation and would be interested to make full use of them for rendering tomograms or serial block face imaging data.

Another question: has anyone done benchmark comparison for 3D rendering in Chimera between a top of the line Geforce GTX card and a top Quadro card? Is there a strong improvement with the Quadro, which might justify the price gap?

Thanks
Ben
