The Chaos Group, the company behind V-Ray, has updated their website with photos, screenshots, and information about their many SIGGRAPH announcements and presentations.  In particular, they’ve got some great shots of V-Ray RT, their GPU-accelerated version of the popular rendering tool, alongside traditional renderers showing identical visuals, but a 10x improvement in renderspeed.  Like the image above:

Offloading the rendering calculations to the GPU gives a 10 times speed increase on a single GeForce 480

They also have screenshots of the new Phoenix FD system, and some of the new IPR functionality in Maya.  Hit their website for all the details.
