  This addon has saved me hours of frustration. It is fantastic for speeding up render times. Question: does this not work with the transparent field ticked?

  Thanks for the 5 star rating. Yes the addon is fully compatible with transparency for both rendering and publishing with the temporal stabiliser. The temporal stabiliser does require vector data though, so if you have semi transparent materials, ensure you have set the Cycles alpha threshold accordingly (it tells cycles to create vector data through semi transparent materials). You can find out more about that in the user manual's troubleshooting section in the area titled Object behind Transparent objects don't stabilise correctly 👍

  This addon is a life changer and well worth a money. The denoising at low sample rates keeps every detail that would have been lost with Blender's native denoising.

  The results are undeniably amazing, but I can't give this 5 stars for a couple of reasons.

  1) It doesn't actually affect the rendering part of the process; the magic is achieved in compositing. The video claiming that the GTX1070 beat RTX4090 is just not true. Detail retention via compositing is not the same as a head-to-head competition in rendering speed, and when it comes to animation, the 4090 will still win.

  2) Compositing is unfortunately still restricted to CPU processing, and with the amount of work being done behind the scenes by this add-on to create such spectacular results, it can be incredibly taxing on your hardware.

  Even after buying a Noctua cooler just to use the add-on more safely, it can still cause temps to rise above 70C, at least during initialization, which could become a very big and expensive problem if you don't already have one of the best coolers available.

  Once GPU compositing becomes more widely available, I will be glad to change my review to to reflect the extended capability of this add-on.

  Hi, thanks for the review. You're quite right, the addon doesn't give the 1070 gpu the same performance as a 4090, but it does allow it to produce similar quality results in the same amount of render time. This is achievable due the automatic render settings that are designed specifically for Turbo Render's advanced denoising system. Basically it renders faster because it's able to use far fewer samples thanks to the advanced denoising system.

  Regarding the CPU temperatures, I wouldn't worry too much about brief spurts of 70 degrees. A constant 70 to 80 degrees is typical for any intensive workload or high end video games. In the case of Turbo Render, it's far less demanding than that because it only happens briefly at the end of every rendered frame. Good news though, the Blender developers are currently implementing GPU support in the compositor, so once that's available, I'll implement immediately 👍

  I had it all ! Yellow snow and I'm coming in you again...Baaaby !
  Bang !
  Awesome and better results, render times cut down... A lot !! Easy to use !!
  I regret I didn"t hear about this Turbo tool earlier and I hardly can imagine living without it now.

  :D Thanks for the review. I'm glad to hear the addon has reduced your render times whilst still managing to provide better results 👍

  I'm 100% decided that my satisfaction level with this addon is about 200% above my initial anticipation. For anyone in doubt (like me initially) this is not hype, it's real! I was previously almost exclusively using EEVEE since I'm still chugging along with a GTX 1080ti card. This addon changes that. It's totally worth every penny and one of the most valuable addons I ever purchased.

  Amazing add-on! Easily in the "if you could keep 3 add-ons and ditch the rest, what would they be?" list. So very fast......Keep up the good work.

  50$ Bucks well Spent now i can render the highest quality without having to wait a whole day for it to finshed
  if you got the 50$ Bucks it's definitely worth it

  This tool is absolutely insane and a must have IMHO. I'm currently rendering at 8k @ 512 samples which looks much better than 1500 samples on vanilla and the render time has been reduced 7 times.

  I only wish I had bought Turbo Tools sooner.

  Ok, first off, this is not a custom build, it's an add-on and that alone should make you realize how convenient this solution is over custom-builds.

  What Michael did here is extremely efficient.
  Depending on your needs, gain on render time can get pretty insane. In some cases, renders for me can be six times faster, but it could be more as I haven't fully explored all the options yet. This is something that in the past I haven't seen with custom-builds which were specifically aimed at improving Blender render speed.

  I feel this is the first time that the claim it will save you the money of an extra GPU is definitely true.

  I thought it would end there, but there's more.
  Another sweet advantage of using Turbo Tools is that your textures will look more detailed. So, not only it will render faster, but it will also look better.

  I only explored the improvement about the speed, so, apologize for excluding all the caching/compositing part.

  On a side note, I bought the add-on when I was using my old PC with a dual 1080ti system. I thought with the new PC and a dual 3080ti, I wouldn't use it as much. I was wrong. Renders now are insanely fast! :)

  Thanks for this must-have add-on.
