Friday 22 October 2010:

Refractive SoftwareŽ is discontinuing endorsement of the Cubix GPU-Xpander for OctaneRenderŽ due to negative feedback from our userbase.

Although conceptually the product is great, we have had too many customer reports of a lack of support, poor delivery schedules, and compatibility problems from Cubix Corp.

Existing Xpander owners should not worry, as we are happy to continue supporting Xpander for OctaneRenderŽ products to the best of our knowledge from the software/driver side, so don't hesitate to contact us if you require so.

Therefore we are currently researching another very promising option which will offer a cheaper, smaller and more flexible hardware solution for our users needs.
We will announce our new hardware compute add-on product at the end of 2010.

Yours,

Refractive SoftwareŽ LTD
