When I reopen DAZ Studio one of the GTX 580's comes back ticked so it seems the plugin wants to always have one GPU ticked by default. I think this solves my problem. Thank you, T3.
might be possible to overcome octanes' urge to have at least one gpu by saving and applying this setting explicitly in the plugin settings (currently this relys on octane itself)...
You mean in the standalone preferences? I just tried but it ticks one GPU for me after I close and reopen.

no, i meant that saving the gpu activation state is currently done by octane itself, not the plugin, so if a "zero config" is a useful thing for the plugin, i need to take special care about that setting, save it myself, and apply it at startup, to keep octane from re-activating disabled gpus (at least to keep a zero config, what was apparently never intended
)
ps: but i would like it much better, if the plugin version of octane would allow to enter gpus their low power states, if not in use...
