Hello, I want to render from DAZ Studio via AMD GPU. How can I do? I wrote from Google translate.

    AMD GPU are not supported by either Iray or 3DL, you can only render with your CPU.

    You could do it, but only if you were prepared to forget all about Iray, and instead only render by using the Reality plugin.

    As for 3Delight it's cpu based so it doesn't support any gpu.

    Use Blender.

    I use blender for some of my renders and I use Nvidia. If I only had AMD, then I would be doing all my renders there.

    Nicstt means this, but of course this way you will not render from daz studio. As a side note luxrender is much better than cycles as for pbr quality, especially with caustics.

     Sounds like a lot of work to do things like setting up materials if you do it that way?

    @Robinson Not at all, diffeo does a very good conversion of materials. And of course you get all the benefits of blender such as eevee and simulations. But may be this is a little off topic for what it is asked here. If you're interested there's a whole blender forum.

    Does not DAZ Studio's IRAY also work with CPUs and system memory, albiet slower?

    I've been curious how a mega-rigged AMD-Pro system would perform with IRAY.

    brilliant reference. thanks for that link - I haven't been in the market for decent H/W for quite a while so following the benchmarks/trends hasn't been particularly interesting - if not downright depressing, relative to my current equipment, heh!

    (to the OP's question, it appears to be a question of performance rather than capability.)

    tnx,

    Not at all.

    There is a learning curve, but once learnt, 5-10 minutes to get things over and rendering.
