While I'm rendering a demo scene, my graphic card GTX580 crash after 2-5 minutes. I attach a image with the error. Sorry for my English and thanks!!

Also, check if you have the PSU minimum requirement for that card _________________ i72630QM @ 2.00GHz \| 6GB RAM \| 2GB GeForce GT 540M \| Win7 64bit

Try a utility such as MSI Afterburner to underclock slightly and increase the fan speed. http://event.msi.com/vga/afterburner/index.htm The Octane demo uses cuda 4.0. While cuda is supposed to be backward compatible the very latest drivers are cuda 4.2 and may give some small problems. For windows the drivers are - Cuda 4.0 is >=270.81 (>=275.33 for laptops) and <286. Cuda 4.1 is >=286.19 (>=286.16 for laptops) and <295 Cuda 4.2 are 295.51, 295.73, 296.10, 301.24 _________________ Core2Duo @3.8Ghz \| 8gb \| Win7pro-64 Quadro FX 570 + Geforce GTX 460/2gb \| mod Quadro driver 307.32 Solidworks 2009 + Rhino 5 + Tsplines 3.4 + Blender 2.67a + Octane v1.15

I attach an image with MSI Afterburner values: GPU clock, GPU voltaje... I tried arion render's demo and it works just fine Thanks for your help folks!

I see the driver you have is 296.10 and thats cuda 4.2 Try instead a late cuda 4.0 one 285.62 http://www.nvidia.com/object/win7-winvi ... river.html and see if that fixes it. Remember for windows you only need the nvidia driver, NOT the toolkit as well. _________________ Core2Duo @3.8Ghz \| 8gb \| Win7pro-64 Quadro FX 570 + Geforce GTX 460/2gb \| mod Quadro driver 307.32 Solidworks 2009 + Rhino 5 + Tsplines 3.4 + Blender 2.67a + Octane v1.15

I think that maybe the PSU or the GPU are broken, because my computer only fails when the GPU load is over 99%. Should I send it back to RMA? Thank you very much for your help!
