second 4 verts

untitled11920×1080 376 KB

they took the same time for render
i made third render but with 20 samples
untitled2
untitled21920×1080 437 KB

i cant really realize a difference :confused:
when should i render in a high samples and when i have to go low samples to dont waste time ?

2400~ vertices may not be enough to demonstrate this, try 200k vertices (or more) and you’ll see the difference in render time.

Start with low samples to test, if it’s enough then stick with it. In general the more you have indirect illumination in a scene the more samples you need.
