Chaos Vantage Cloud Workstation — real-time ray tracing on a rented RTX GPU

From $1.49an hour, no GST, billed per minute

First top-up $20 = 8 hours on the RTX 5080.

Recommended for Chaos Vantage: RTX A5000, 24 GB VRAM

No account until you press Start. Other GPUs

Chaos Vantage ray-traces the whole scene in real time on the graphics card, so VRAM decides what you can open. A Coreframe workstation gives you a workstation-class GPU with workstation VRAM, streamed to your laptop and billed by the minute.

Why rent a GPU for this.

Vantage needs a ray-tracing RTX GPU, and every card here has one.
Workstation VRAM, so big scenes open without cutting textures.
Live link from 3ds Max, SketchUp, Rhino or Revit on the same machine.
Pay by the minute for the presentation weeks only.

What our customers say

As a freelancer I can't justify a workstation that sits idle between projects. When a Twinmotion job comes in, I open an RTX 5080 on Coreframe and stop paying the moment I close it. My files wait on my Coreframe drive, so I pick up right where I left off.

Dinesh

Freelance visualiser · Twinmotion

Blender and After Effects all day, often for two clients at once. On Coreframe, 64 GB of RAM keeps long After Effects comps smooth, and Blender renders finish far sooner than on my laptop. It costs more than a basic cloud VM, but a basic VM can't run this.

Sai

Motion designer · Blender & After Effects

I test heavy Unreal levels and walk scenes in Twinmotion. The 16 GB card on Coreframe loads what my own machine couldn't, and it streams to my laptop in 4K.

Avi

Game tester · Unreal Engine & Twinmotion

Before Coreframe I did all of this on an RTX 3060 at home, cutting textures down just to make big projects fit. Now I open an RTX 5080 when a test pass needs it, and per-minute billing means short sessions cost what they should.

Srini

Game developer & tester

I'm based in Singapore and paid with my international card: no paperwork, just an email and a mobile number. On Coreframe I build comps in After Effects and run my FFmpeg batch encodes on the same machine, then pull the finished files down. One proper Windows workstation for the whole job.

Chaos Vantage: what’s installed, what you bring.

Already installed

  • D5 Render
  • Twinmotion

Bring your own licence

  • Chaos Vantage
  • Your host: 3ds Max, SketchUp, Rhino or Revit

Vantage signs in with your Chaos account or your own licence server. Each session starts from a clean machine, so software you install is removed when it ends, unless you choose a persistent workstation (available on selected GPUs), which keeps your own Windows disk between sessions. Everything on the machine.

The GPU we recommend for Chaos Vantage

RTX A5000, 24 GB VRAM

Vantage ray-traces the whole scene from VRAM; 24 GB fits large archviz scenes; pick more VRAM for the biggest.

What Chaos Vantage costs per hour here.

One price per GPU-hour, in US dollars. The recommended card is picked; tap another to change it.

RTX A5000 chosen. You sign up when you press Start: your email and a WhatsApp code. You pay before any GPU time, then download Connect.

Blender, Unreal Engine, Twinmotion and D5 Render are preinstalled. Commercial software runs on your own licence.

How to sign out of common apps

You sign in to Chaos Vantage with your own licence; the price is for the machine. Billed per minute from when you connect, not per whole hour. Preparing the workstation and uploads are free. If you don't connect within 10 minutes of your workstation being ready, it shuts down and those 10 minutes are charged. If a connection fails on our side, nothing is charged. Full pricing.

How Chaos Vantage runs here: measured, not quoted.

We publish only figures we have measured on our own workstation, and we have not published Chaos Vantage timings yet. Each row says so. Ask and we will run your scene, or a reference one, and send the numbers.

Licensing. You install it and sign in with your own licence, exactly as you would on a new PC. We don't supply licences for commercial software, because the licence belongs to you and not to the machine. Vantage signs in with your Chaos account or your own licence server.

Questions.

Can I run Chaos Vantage on a cloud GPU?

Yes, on an NVIDIA RTX card with a display driver, which every Coreframe workstation has. It is a full Windows desktop (Windows 11 or Windows Server), so you install Vantage with your Chaos account and use it as you would locally, streamed through the Coreframe Connect app.

How much VRAM does Chaos Vantage need?

The whole scene has to fit in VRAM: geometry, textures and lights. Many design laptops have 6 to 8 GB; every Coreframe card has more, and the larger cards on the price list hold more again. Open your scene in a session and watch the VRAM meter.

Does the Vantage live link work on the workstation?

Yes. Install the host (3ds Max, SketchUp, Rhino or Revit) with your own licence in the same session and the live link works as it does on your desk.

Does Coreframe provide a Vantage licence?

No. Vantage is licensed to you through your Chaos account or licence server. Coreframe supplies the machine.

What GPU do I need for Chaos Vantage?

For Chaos Vantage we recommend the RTX A5000 with 24 GB of VRAM. Vantage ray-traces the whole scene from VRAM; 24 GB fits large archviz scenes; pick more VRAM for the biggest. Every card on the price list runs it; you pick the card when you start.

How much does a Coreframe workstation cost?

Ad-hoc sessions are $1.49 per GPU-hour, billed per minute from when you connect, not per whole hour. Preparing the workstation and uploads are free. If you don't connect within 10 minutes of your workstation being ready, it shuts down and those 10 minutes are charged. If a connection fails on our side, nothing is charged. Committed monthly plans start at $70.99/month and bill extra hours below the ad-hoc rate at every tier: $1.99/hr on Small Team, $0.99/hr on Medium Team. Prices in US dollars carry no GST (export of services), and the invoice is in US dollars.

Are prices the same worldwide?

Each billing country has one price list. Accounts billed outside India pay in US dollars, from $1.49 an hour with no GST (export of services), billed per minute. Accounts billed in India pay a rupee price list with GST included. The workstations are the same everywhere, hosted in a Tier III data centre in India.

Is there an offer for new customers?

Yes. Your first top-up of $20 (no GST) buys 8 hours on an RTX 5080 (or about 18 hours on the RTX A4000, 12 on the RTX A5000), to use within 30 days, one per customer. You sign up with an email and a WhatsApp code to your mobile, with no ID documents, and international cards work. We won't say what you can finish in that time, because it depends entirely on your scene.

No account until you press Start. New to it? How a session works.
