Also, I wouldn’t want to rely on something that Autodesk could cancel overnight and just point you to the full-price version. Indie licences are a new thing and Autodesk has automatically tried to charge the full price the subsequent year for some people, so watch out for that. You can buy lots of high end hardware with the money saved by not renting. I don’t subscribe to/rent Autodesk products. The only reason Autodesk is offering the Indie-versions is because of Blender. If cost is an issue, use Blender and if you’re not getting paid much then it doesn’t matter if a render takes all night for one still-image. In fact the opposite will probably be true, there will be too many of everything as greedy companies over-correct. Also, at some point in the future, there won’t be a global chip-shortage.
In the UK brand new founders-edition cards are still available on Ebay many months after release and their price is dropping. So in the future, which is what you are hoping for with “Vray-indie”, they will be available. RTX3000 series were not really used for mining in any great number, most were scalped and in any case, Ethereum-mining is coming to an end this year.
However, if you are making no money whatsoever, why do you need 3ds max and Vray? (Upgrading cost is similar to 3ds max indie subscription). I sort of get where you are coming from in that Chaos-Group seems to assume that successful-businesses that use their software have magically always been in existence.
Pretty funny then when someone writes: "hey, do it in Blender, buy some Gforce 3090… who wants to learn - and has the time to learn a new Software, workflow… No Dude, that’s not that easy as you write in a few words… So you have to know, there are very certain Reasons, why Software companies are offering Indilics. Thanks for the hints, but if you are a lucky guy, who came scratchless through the pandemic and you might earn a lot as well… congrats! then just put a few thousand of Bugs on the table to buy just a “few” of exactly that cards - ok, because it´s you let´s say 4 pieces is quiet enough -> 8000,00-9500,00 € - easy!! (Powerconsumtion 1400Watt… easy…!!)Nvidia prizes have been pushed to the inhuman limit (thanks to Etherium) Please be so kind and understand: I was talking about Indielicense (guess what these groups of artist need most? So I am also only having an Autodesk indielicens either - and that’s not the overpriced 2500,00 Bugs a Year, which I economical couldn’t afford.
