there is no cuda device which is selected cinema 4d

My 2600k from 2011 has no problem managing its Octane node software.

Luckily with Octane the system specs don’t actually matter all that much. If you need to buy an entire second (and/or third) PC you might not save anything. In my case I already had those other two computers (minus a few parts) so I’m not factoring that in for myself, but for you, yes you would have to consider that cost as well. And let’s not forget the extra electricity costs, which I estimate could be between $300-$500 a year. I had to buy 2 Octane Render Node licenses on top of my Enterprise subscription. Of course there are consequences for going with my multi-machine setup. But right now, my 3 boxes containing 11 pretty good, last-gen GPUs gives me plenty of power to work with, and I can always sell these cards and upgrade as time goes those used 2080TIs 3090s get more affordable.

And there’s an argument about future-proofing your investment. I will admit, the spiffy new RTX cards are in fact more capable, have more VRAM and presumably a longer life.
