Hi there,

Let's start with the fact that i am not very technical and new to octane, so my apology in advance. I am using a windows based machine with a single GTX1070 card.

In the attached screenshot you can see that the 'Memory used' is quite low. I am wondering if my GPU is being used to it's full potential? In the 'Devices' tab i unchecked the 'Use priority' so it should use it to the max. Can someone please confirm if there is more power to be used from this card and if so how to utilize this? Thank you so much for your help.

Hi,
everything is working smoothly :)
Current your scene needs only few VRAM, probably because you are correctly using the Render instance option active, so no problem, you have always time to fill up the memory with more textures and geometry.
GPU-Z reports that the GPU is working perfectly while rendering:
