I just got C4D and render something last night that took a long time. Is there a way to have SpeedFan overclock my GPU to my Performance 3D settings so that the rendering goes faster
 
Well first you dont use SpeedFan to overclock your GPU. Why dont you just overclock the GPU using RivaTuner or CoolBits, and why do you only want it overclocked when your rendering?

lol oh yeah

i meant RivaTuner. is there a way to do i when i open C4D

i want it to do it automatically because i would forget

When you overclock with RivaTuner or CoolBits, it should save that overclock so everytime you startup your computer, it's OC'd. If it doesn't, there should be a way to save a profile to automatically load on startup.

I'm almost 100% sure that CoolBits and nTune have a checkbox to OC the GPU when you startup the computer.
 
Most renderers only use the CPU to render, Maya has a hardware renderer which utilizes the GPU for the shaders, but usually it's just the CPU. Cause renderfarms would be a lot more expensive if they had to get video cards for 'em too.
 
with C4D you mean something like AutoCAD? anyway... if its a dx/openGL 3d application, you can just overclock the 3d settings of the nvidia card you have,... it will run on stock in 2d, and on the overclocked settings for 3d applications.
or at least... thats what i understand from these drivers so far.. ^^
 
what kind of program is C4D? :x if its something like AutoCAD.. the 7900GTX etc are not build for those kind of programs. ( the Quadro series are made for that ;) )

well i have it at 450:750 on 2D and 550:808 for performance 3D


does C4D not use the GPU for rendering

It depends on what renderer you use, but most only use the CPU. I've only heard of about 1-2 renderers that use the GPU for something.
