GPU rendering engines like OctaneRender and Redshift utilize the computational power of the graphics processing chips on video cards to create photo-realistic images and animations. The more powerful the video card, the faster the rendering process goes – and multiple video cards can be used together to further improve performance. But can those video cards be a mix of different models, or do they all need to be identical?
