Hi. When I deselect a card in device preferences and close it the card still is used when rendering in the latest build.
That isn’t the case in the earlier release. Someone else having the same problem.

I use windows 10.

Hi! That's due to the new "Use Share Surface for Viewport" option (you can find it in the Octane addon settings).

Just disable it for now.

Thanks for reporting this!

Hi! I disabled the new "Use Share Surface for Viewport" option and that didn`t fix it. The problem is the same as before.
Did that work for you?

I have a gtx 1080ti for the Display and render with a 3090.

Yes it did. By the way, we've fixed the issue already, and a new build will be available soon.
