Hi otoy,
Why after rendering overnight I will get a very slow PC, 3ds max might get slow, sometimes restart, sometimes slave fail. Does octane mess up nvidia drivers? Anyone else has this problem

I don't know if you have one or more GPUs but in my case, that only happens when there is some kind of a memory leak. Meaning the GPU is using an insane amount of ram. In my case, it used to happen when I had two GPUs without NvLink support. Now that I don't need to use "OOC" it never happens. The bottom line, are you using OOC? If so run task manager and check how much VRAM is shown on the GPU. if it is an insane amount like 12-30GB and you have an 8GB GPU, then that's likely the cause.

Hi coilbook,
Could you try deactivating "enable material preview memory cache" option (octane global preference > material) and make a "clear cache"?
