As Scott indicated, Revit has Accurender built in.
There is no explicit provision in either VIZ or MAX to accomodate native
Revit files, although you can convert Revit geometry to DWG files, and then
import or link them.
If you have decided not to use the Accurender engine within Revit for some
reason, VIZ and MAX are very similar in a lot of ways. MAX will give you
more animation and "special effects" tools (particle systems, for example,
to simulate flame, snow, etc.).

Revit and I have overheard that the rendering on Autodesk VIZ is not really
up to the job (Don't shoot the messenger!). Is 3D Studio Max really the way
to go?
