i had same problem with 780TIs even above 60 for some scenes they would fail especially scenes with a lot of mesh or alpha shadows like leaves etc. Since switching to hybrids all problems are gone. Not sure why may be some GPU chips start malfunctioning once temps get a bit too high. I think liquid ...

Yo Straticus77, tell us what brand/model of case you have, and exactly how many case fans do you have and where . And while you are doing that, stick your specs in your signature.
I have a Cooler Master HAF X case with 4 case fans (1 on the side panel, 1 on the front panel, 1 on the top of the ...

Hi Straticus77,
I do not know exactly why you're in trouble, but my advice is to use Gtx 780Ti for OS, monitor/s and 3ds Max viewport.
With Titan X Vram entirely dedicated to Octane, you could take advantage of parallel samples at best.

Hi Paride,
That unfortunately does not solve ...

Anyone able to help out? Problem is still occurring.

Hi Straticus77,
Octane Render thinks in meters, values entered are considered meters.
That said, value expressed in watt can be calculated considering simulated light source and its efficiency.
Personally for simulated illumination, I recommend using mesh emitters.

In the 3DS Max plugin, creating a basic "Octane Light" never gives me consistent results. Either it's way too bright or does not emit light at all no matter what power setting I put. Is there a certain way I have to create these? And what setting do I need to put into the "Units Setup" options under ...

I just want FOG PLEASE! The C4D version makes great looking fog. Why can't 3DS Max look that good?

Hi,
I'm having a pretty frustrating issue where after a few minutes of working in the standalone program (also the 3DS Max plugin), I get red text at the bottom of the viewport saying "2 GPU's (All Failed)." This makes it so I have to save the scene and restart Octane Standalone or quit and restart ...

Seems odd that C4d users have a working Octane scatter but we don't...

There are a lot of features the C4D version has that we don't. Not sure it's fair to charge the same price for a plugin that does less.
