Hi

if you got a new MacBookPro with those build in intel chips for low
power consumption Octane might not find the GT330 card you
have for high performance work.

you can get gfxCardStatus, install it and select manually to use
the NVIDIA card.

If you start Octane than it will find the card and run well.
