Trying out DAZ Studio Iridium Beta I think I am liking it. Needs a little polish but I think its a great improvement. Image on left is using iRay with GEFORCE 750 video card. Right is Octane with GEFORCE 750 video card. (See attached image.)

Speed - they are about the same, color a little better in Octane but its nice to have a built in renderer that actually works.

    The Iray side will look more similar with better lights. The Octane one has a strong fill but weak side lighting where the Iray one looks like it was lit with a single photometric - that's a bit apples to oranges.

    The leather textures show up better in the Octane version.

    with time and practice, you would be able to do the same in either.

    Agreed. Ultimately you will get the same exact results with similar light setups and work on materials. You can really say one looks better than the other since the setups aren't the same.

    I think that the iray has great capabilities and brings DS away from the cartoonist look to more realism
