same but i have a rtx 3060 i want a rtx 40xx gpu sometime not cuz its faster but i just want nvenc avi and hopefuly blender adds nvenc support in the future oh also i almost never use solid viewport i always use render until the scene gets too complex and laggy
tile size and persistent data is just what i needed. thankyou sir🔥

@@Monkeymario. yea i now noticed that tile size didnt rlly do much for me either but persistent data most definitely helped
Really nice edited video! Here are some thoughts i had: -Blender has a built in addon that you can activate that auto determines the perfect tile size -The pixel size (or filter) also works as a quick anti-aliasing afaik so dont just crank that down to get higher detail -The higher noise threshold is good for scenes with large smooth faces. In scenes where there is detail and you want to see stuff like grime or fingerprints those will get smudged into a blob too For anyone starting out or never have looked into optimizing your render speeds id recommend to get a sample project and try to change all the stuff people on the internet tell you works. Try all possible combinations. Then try to understand why what changed, had how much of an impact. For example, you have a scene with a lot of glass but the focus is imagery in the back and reflections of the glass. You can disable light refracting which will save a ton of render time. But if you want a realistic "light casting through Waves" effect youll need the refracting. Understanding stuff like that will enable you to optimize Blender for every scene you could ever do. And dont be scared to fuck shit up. Thats what you have the template for :)
Thanks, man! You helped me a lot. My project used to take 50 minutes for one frame, but now it only takes 10 minutes.
Persistent data only works for scenes where the only animated property are camera properties. Animated objects or materials etc will not work.
Noise treshold is REALLY important and in dark scenes going above 0.02 will result in shitty image. I'm now rendering scene on 512 samples 4k and with 0.01 Noise treshold and scene doesn't seem so diferent then one on 4096 samples but some of your tips are useful. Great video!

Excellent Tips Man. Especially for fast moving animations if any quality is lost. Just done 2 renders. 1m15s and cut it down to 40s with no observable loss in quality.....A Big Thank You. Wish I found this a few days ago. Took me about 16hrs to render an animation. (In chunks luckily)
Dude, what have you done to my computer? Normally it was taken 42 minutes to render, bcs of you it rendered in 20 seconds. I owe you. God Bless you man!

Good tips when I'm trying to render on my GT 630
In Blender versions after 3, it is recommended to leave tiling off, as Cycles is optimized to render without.

Thank you so much bro I have the gpu memory problem too
Persistent data can cause adaptive subdivision microdisplacement not to update between frames, so it's one I'd be aware of. I'm very skeptical about reducing pixel filter. Can get nasty. Remember that sharpness and details is lost to denoiser as well. I recommend rendering with less samples but at double the resolution (4 times longer), then input and output sharpen in post.
Really well made video and helpful for those of us with a less powerful machine. But a couple of considerations, you can go even lower with pixel width setting (to a minimum of 0.01 if I'm not mistaken) for a really crisp image, but be aware that changing it around may increase the amount of aliasing in your image, especially depending if you're working with a small resolution. My personal feeling is that it acts almost as a Temporal AntiAliasing seen in games nowadays (TAA), which you can look up and see comparisons of it on and off, the lower the pixel width, the more definition, with the cost of more aliasing. Another one, and this is a helpful one, you can actually increase image resolution WHILE rendering with almost the same performance. Say you set your render to 4K with a resolution scale of 100% and 4096 samples (just an example, it doesn't need to be this demanding). You can set the resolution percentage to 200% and then divide your sample count by 4. So I'd render at 4k, with 200% image resolution, but with 1024 samples this time. The reduced sample count makes up for the performance cost of rendering at a higher resolution. You can re-scale it afterwards within Blender itself through the compositor, image editor or even with MS Paint. Also also, I'd advise against going too high with the noise threshold, it may make you image look like an oil painting sometimes as the denoiser tries its best to average the sparse sample count for each pixel. Usually I'll set the number of samples, then set at least a min value of samples correspondent to 1/4 of the max samples, so 100 max samples, 25 min samples and so on.
Will these tips help with image noise for animations? Because my biggest problem is that no matter how much I increase the samples or reduce the noise threshold I always perceive a strange flickering in my animations. I've tried using both denoiser (Optix and OID) and even using the Denoise from compositing, I've even rendered in EXR Multilayer to remove the noise using a strange script, but I always perceive that problem and I'm not sure why. Anyway, I'm going to put into practice some of the tips you mention, I hope some of them will solve that problem. Thank you very much for the video!

This is really helpful tutorial, thanks. Is one more thing that will speed up the overall work in the blender and can affect the rendering speed. If you have a lot of RAM memory on your pc, click: Edit->Preferences->system (scrol down)-> Video Sequencer and you will see Memory Cache Limit. Set on 8 thousand or if you have many RAM, set 10 or 12 thousand. I have 12 thousand, when I have havy animatioin or I work in vfx, 12 thousand speeds up worki in blender.
THanks for the video, so is it correct that lowering tile size does not effect the final quality of the render? I had been confused.

Yes, tile size has nothing to do with the quality, it is about dividing the whole image into smaller sections so it is easier for your pc to process but it doesn't effect quality

Great video. Thank you. Question. When you say increase the resolution. Do you mean render at a larger size? I’m familiar with photoshop and the ability to increase the ppi or dpi (print) but I wasn’t aware the detail can be dialed up within the image. If so, where are the settings.
@BadgerBricks
21 күн бұрын
Yes, larger size. When you have an image already taken, you can't really increase the number of pixels without using complex AI programs. However, when you're taking a photo or rendering in Blender, you can choose the resolution (like 1080p, 1440p, or 4K). Higher resolutions capture more detail because they save more pixels with bigger file size.

I think the 3060 is ok, it depends for how much will you buy it but it should be great and be enough. If you have more budget i would go for the 3070, in my country it goes for about 300usd used or 3080 ti for 450 usd used or if you want futer proof it more you can go with the 4070 super but it is the same as the 3080 ti but newer and pricer for like those 700 usd. you can alslo look for 4070 ti because it is quite a bit better. and also around 700 i think. I personaly would go with the 3080 or ti becouse it is the best value imo and it was the top card of the 30 generation. the 3060 if you would get it for like 250 usd would be a good deal and you could upgrade it in future if it wasnt eoungh here is a list that i made recently with all cards and the benchmarks in %. 100 usd is around 400zł RTX 3060 ti 8gb - 1100zł 130% used RTX 3070 8gb - 1300zl 148% used RTX 3080 10gb - 1700zł 190% used RTX 4060 8gb - 1500zł 122% new RTX 3080 ti 12gb - 1900zł 205% used RTX 4060 ti 8gb - 1900zl 145% new RTX 4060 ti 16gb - 2100zł 145% new RTX 4070 12gb - 2500zł 190% new RTX 4070 super 12gb - 2900zł 215% new RTX 3090 24gb - 3000zł 210% used RTX 4070 ti 12gb - 3500zł 240% new RTX 4070 ti super 16gb - 4000zł 250% new RTX 4080 super 16gb - 4000zł 300% used RTX 4080 16gb - 4500zł 290% new RTX 4080 super 16gb - 5000zł 300% new

set the frame rate in the output tab to half of the desired fps
Setting the noise threshold to 1 works best. Why? who knows. I find CPU vs GPU only makes a few seconds difference. A cheap way to halve render times, I built a PC using two salvaged Intel Xeon E5-2697 CPUs (from Ebay) and a ZX-DU99D4 motherboard (from Ebay) and some scavenged parts (inc a 1080Ti) for about £130 (expert knowledge required). Render times are about half using a 4060. Spatial Splits settings in Performance can make a big difference.

No that's a little misleading. It doesn't just "work the best". I mean sure for simple one product image (like shown in the video) the difference is hard to tell. But on a complex scene with lots of texture maps, lights you can ABSOLUTELY tell the difference. The image is fuzzy-ish because denoiser has to work extra hard to clean the image and guess the details. Increasing the resolution does help a little but ofc that costs extra time.
Great video thanks. Personally I just use the Turbo Tools addon, it's Turbo Render feature is like black magic for speeding up rendering and removing flicker from animations. I'll definitely try some of these tips in combination with that though!

Watched also many "Render 90% quicker"-videos and have to say that this is the best! Knowing most of this and thinking same about noise treshold/resolution (easiest is to write 200%) etc, but something new came here also! I have to try this vram-tip, will it work so good. Bought earlier better GPU because this was the main problem, now I maybe can use also other pc with less GPU memory for rendering, have to try. Hoping that somebody who have also Turbo tools-addon would answer that is there any help when samples are couple of hundreds and noise treshold is like 0.1 and upper? I bought it and hoped best, but getting quicker renders without it. What would be settings for this addon for get best results? All the time in versus reviews there is sample rate something like 4000 and that why addon make it quicker. But when sample rate is 150, is there any way to get same results quicker? Thank You and ✝️ blessings from Finland! Channel ordered!
Excelent Tips! and cute cats! Thanks for all the tips, works very well! and the cats deserves de aaww! By the way, one tip that help me to make renders quicker is turn it off the Denoise in teh Sampling panel and insted use a Denoise node in the Composite panel. Thanks for sharing!
I render to 1440x2560, QHD gives more details than FHD but it's more time efficient than rendering 4K. With a little adjustments in Photoshop renders turn out nice
1:40 After cycles engine update, if you have enough vram it is better to disable tiling at all for speed. At least for my rtx 3060
