Several years ago I rendered a animation with Vray 1.5 on one PC.
I believe rendering took 4-5 weeks 24/7.
I would NOT do it like that again.
With Enscape I rendered a 4 minutes animation in less than an hour.

my machine cant run enscape . each time i try it crashes

You said in a PM you had $1600 to spend on a new laptop, this will get it done:

I was looking at this also ASUS ROG STRIX Hero Edition Gaming Laptop, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076D95JW7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_2m6KCb2GCA8BM

Considering you are usimg Vray 3.4 I assume you are not using GPU rendering, so the alienware will have more cores than the ASUS, both will work great for Enscape however

Can you send me some examples please? Thanks

Here's a list from Chaos Group: https://www.chaosgroup.com/render-farms (not all of these have SU+V-Ray support, but if you narrow the list to just SU, it misses farms like Rebus)

And they have their own cloud: https://www.chaosgroup.com/cloud (I haven't used it so I couldn't speak to how it compares.)

Thanks.

Looks good. Now you can render a V-Ray animation in one week instead of four.

lol. I plan on using enscape for walkthroughs/animation

In that case I'd suggest a GPU with much more ram, 2gb is very little

Smart plan! I have a pair of GTX 1070's and they're working great with Enscape.

Also, at 8GB memory. Like Solo says, gotta have enough memory.

Thanks for the suggestion champ

I was thinking about getting the Nvidia GTX 1060 8gb

VRay cloud is very nicely integrated and easy to use but I thought that I read that you can find cheaper farms out there. The price tag of Enscape will pay for itself with one animation job. Not pushing Enscape down your throat but we have all been there with V-Ray and Enscape is just damn fast and easy.

I know it might be a little more involved but Unity might be a good option as well.
