NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Content Creation Review | Puget Systems
March 6, 2025 - Once again, the 5070 is a great upgrade from the 30-series, but much less necessary if you already have a 4070 SUPER. ... For offline, GPU-based rendering, we could only test with two of our usual four benchmarks. At present, the 50-series cards have only experimental support in Redshift 2025.13 (but no compatibility with Cinebench 2024, which uses the Redshift renderer) and support in the OctaneRenderer 2025.1-beta 2 (but not in OctaneBench); as such, we were not able to test with either.

anyone got a rtx 5090 and benched with vs a 4090 with karma and redshift?
There are 5090s and 5080s in the redshift benchmarks thread here: https://redshift.maxon.net/topic/12303/benchmark-results/1417 4090 ~1:10-1:20 5090 ~1:00 25%-30% faster than a 4090 Not the 50% from the 3090 to 4090 unfortunately. VRay seems to be closer to 50% here: https://www.pugetsystems.com/labs/articles/nvidia-geforce-rtx-5090-content-creation-review/ You can extrapolate Karma to be probably 30-50% I'd venture more towards the lower end of that.

I'm wondering this too. Nvidia seems to be heavily pushing their frame generation software instead of making stronger GPU's. Which has me worried about how that will impact non gaming related needs like Redshift rendering. More on reddit.com

What NVIDIA GPU would be better for Redshift? A 4070 Ti? Or a 3090?
Yeah, stick with 3090 Especially since those also have SLI, so you could join them and get 48gig of Ram. Something that is now impossible with the 40 series. More on reddit.com

By default, the Redshift Benchmark uses a block size (aka "bucket size" : see System - Advanced) of 128x128 pixels. To use different bucket sizes, use the "blocksize" parameter. Below is an example using 256x256 pixel buckets.

i had seen something on web and i know u had seen samething on web. new 50 series are released and soon go to market. my question is how they good cause 5080 gpu have 10700 cuda core but 4080s have 10250 cuda. is that cuda effect to render? also another question is if we can use upper verison of redshift samply 3.0 or more cause version 3 is key of rtx, again we can use 50 series cards on same software? if that question need big NO from u , please explaine to why cause im using older versions.

r/RedshiftRenderer on Reddit: What NVIDIA GPU would be better for Redshift? A 4070 Ti? Or a 3090?
April 15, 2023 -

So back in 2021, I got two RTX 3090 Graphics Cards for Redshift rendering (and note: I'm talking about REGULAR 3090 cards here, NOT 3090 Ti's).

Unfortunately, one of the 3090 cards died so I sent it back to the reseller.

They've told me they can't repair the card, but would be happy to provide me with a replacement 4070 Ti (as a straight swap) instead.

So I'm wondering... For the purposes of Redshift rendering, would a 4070 Ti card be more powerful? Or would a regular 3090 STILL be the more preferable option?

It's kind of difficult to find what aspects of a GPU make renders faster. For Redshift, all I could find is this site here...

https://support.maxon.net/hc/en-us/articles/1500006456521-Does-Redshift-depend-on-CPU-performance-

And it seems to say that VRAM is the most important thing for rendering? In that case, I wonder if the 3090's 24GB of VRAM would be better than the 4070 Ti's 12GB?

What do you all think?

Hardware Recommendations for Redshift | Puget Systems
September 11, 2025 - Aside from raw performance, it is also important to consider the number of PCI-Express lanes a CPU supports. This will govern how many video cards can be used, which has a big impact since video cards are the primary driver for rendering performance in Redshift.

r/RedshiftRenderer on Reddit: New Nvidia generation for rendering
January 12, 2025 -

Hi!

Just like everyone else Iโ€™m curious to see what kind of performance boost the new gen Nvidia cards will provide for rendering. The only benchmark so far is gaming, showing an almost 2x boost in fps in Cyberpunk at 4K (which is insane). But my concern is if that boost is mainly driven by the DLSS 4 tech using ai for higher frame rate.

Basicallt Iโ€™m wondering if anyone has done any deep dive in the specs or has any early hands on experience with these cards and know if the boost for rendering will be as massive as for gaming.

r/RedshiftRenderer on Reddit: Redshift not detecting my GPU (RTX 5070) in Maya
March 29, 2025 -

Hi! I'm having trouble getting Redshift to recognize my GPU in Maya 2024. I have an RTX 5070 and a Ryzen 7 7800X3D, but Redshift only shows my CPU as a render device.

Here's what Iโ€™ve tried so far, with no luck:

  • Installed the latest NVIDIA drivers (tried both Game Ready and Studio).

  • Installed Redshift through Maxon App and also tried reinstalling it.

  • Restarted both my PC and Maya several times.

  • Checked in Render Settings > System, only the CPU shows up.

Could it be that this GPU is not officially supported yet?

Any help or insights would be greatly appreciated ๐Ÿ™
