Material preview and graphic card

Hi,
material previews in rhino 5 are very slow so big projects with a lot of shaders are a real problem for me.
I have a gtx 1060. In the next few days, I'll buy a gtx 1080 ti to support the previous one. Probably I will use 1080 only for rendering and 1060 for handling the models and for rendering

I'm wondering if material previews will handle only by the 1060 or by 1060+1080.

thanks

bye

Hi Fabrizio

I'm not sure of Octane with render the previews on one card or two. My best guess is two.

In general, I would recommend turning OFF material previews, so that large scene load quicker.
