Hi Stefano,
Kernel Panics are hardware related, probably there is an issue with the powering of the Nvidia GPU, please double check it.
Could you try with a different PSU, or GPU?

Hi Beppe!

I'm working on a Bizonbox with a 400W power supply that (theoretically) was made for the GTX 1080 Ti. I asked the manufacturer if maybe there is something wrong with it...

Thanks a lot !
Stefano

Hi,

The answer from Bizon about the brutal shutdown:

"Unfortunately it's a known bug with Nvidia Web and CUDA drivers for High Sierra."

The last hope remains Octane X

I noticed that crashes are practically always generated by the denoiser..... but it is impossible to work without it!

Hi Stefano,
it means that 400W are not enough for handing the peaks of power consumption, typical of AI Denoising.
You need a more powerful external PSU, like 550W, or 650W to be safe.
Alternatively, you need to replace the 1080Ti, with a 1070, that needs definitely less power than 1080Ti.
