AmigaOS c. 1991 (Amiga 1000, 2.5MiB RAM) - some shiny interlocked
chain links with a sunset background. I remember very carefully
taking a color print film shot of the monitor with a 105mm macro
lens along with a shot of the monitor showing a neutral gray for
white-balance purposes. The result looked great.<br>

my current work (videos less than a couple of
minutes long with low complexity in NTSC resolution)
my CPU does just fine. However, I would like to
speed up rendering for scenes to be somewhat faster.<br>
<br>
It seems that Blender supports "CUDA GPU devices
with compute ability > 2.0", which the tesla line
all does.<br>
<br>
However I currently have ATI video output that works
well, and I'd like to retain that if at all
possible. So, a few questions that I hope someone
has the answer to, in the hopes of saving some money
in research...<br>
<br>
1. Can I have both ATI and NVIDIA hardware in the
same system, using ATI for display and NVIDIA just
for processing? I like having a well working KMS
setup which supports both X11 and Weston/Wayland.<br>
<br>
2. Does anyone know what would be the most painless
in terms of well-supported devices on Fedora 21 or
Fedora 22 workstation? Ideally I just want to plug
it in and be able to tell blender to use it.<br>
<br>
3. The K80 seems to be the best bet. Can anyone
confirm this?<br>
<br>
4. Lastly, has the state of NVIDIA binary drivers in
general improved? I've been out of the NVIDIA world
since probably 2010 or so. At least then, it was a
royal PITA to make work (right), but it was okay
after that as long as nothing changed.<br>
