Tifa WIP (and Update)
🕑 Added 2025-05-03 05:46:41 +0000 UTCHey all!
Apologies for the recent inactivity. The past few weeks I've spent trying to put together parts to finally upgrade my PC and I recently finished building it. My previous one was built around 7 years ago so it's quite the leap and the difference in render speeds from my old system to this one is unbelievable.
For reference, a project file that my old PC would take 1-2 hours to render was rendered in under 4 minutes on my new one. This will definitely expedite my workflow going forward and finally open the door to trying some actual animation stuff (hopefully).
Anyway, it's good to finally be back in Blender and working on things :)
The upgrade for anyone curious:
Old: Ryzen 5 1600, GTX 1080, 16GB
New: Ryzen 9 9950x, RTX 5080, 64GB

Yeah the viewport performance with OptiX is crazy. I used to have to wait for the scene to render out a bit to see what I'm doing but now everything is nearly instantaneous. It's amazing haha

Yeah, that's definitely quite the upgrade. Especially rendering in Cycles with a non-RTX card vs. rendering with an RTX card (I've been there myself). Puts your old works in a new light, really impressive what you managed with those old specs

Yeah! It has served me well 😌

You were sitting on a GTX 1080 all this time!? That's crazy. Congrats, well deserved!
