I would like to know what is better to render in 3dsmax? a single gtx 780ti or a 2 gtx 780ti in SLI? i know that in SLI have a performance in display but in the render final? example a single frame render with 1 gtx 780 delay 5 min to render, with 2 gtx in SLI how many time to render??? i will use a processor i7 3920k with 32giga memory, is valid 2 boards in sli in the render?

With how much you're going to spend, I would look at one of the lower level quadros. GTX is a gaming gpu, and isnt the best for animating. IF you're goal is to help animate, then get a quadro, because they're the most efficient at rendering with 3d programs.

I know that a quadro is indicated to 3d programs but, the cuda cores sometimes is lower that GTX, other problem is some times i need use After Effects, and i don´t know if the performance of quadro is the same in after effects!!!
NVIDIA Quadro GPU Quadro 6000 CUDA Cores 448
GeForce GTX 780 Ti CUDA Cores 2880

what is the better??? i make a test in 2 computers diferent, the first computer is a i7 4770k with 16giga ram 1866 and a video board gtx 650 ti, the second computer a i7 3820 with 32 giga ram and a video board gtx 690 ti i made a render test with the same scene, and the i7 4770k rendered in 8 minutes and some seconds, the i7 3820 rendered in 10 minutes and some seconds!!! What really worth? an extreme processor or a video card?
