8 card system?

Building a system for a customer based on Tyan FT77A, with eight GTX 780 cards. Can't get more than 7 cards to work - the 8th one to come up reports code 43. It is not related to slot or card - if I disable the 'code 43' card in device manager, then disable one more card (total 6 active), and re ...

Re: GTX 690 issues on Windows

I tested this by replacing one of the GTX 690s with an old Radeon X600 I had lying around and installing Windows 7 - no luck, Octane Render crashes on startup :(

The client also needs to run Maya on the same system, so I'm guessing they'll need OpenGL.

Re: GTX 690 issues on Windows

I see, thank you for confirming it. Interesting that the limitation only applies to Windows, not Linux. I don't have Intel graphics on this system - the onboard video is Matrox ServerEngines 200-something, and enabling it also results in issues with option ROMs resource space limitations. Going to ...
