Hi there,
I am new to Octane renderer and was wondering what drivers you needed to download for the windows version, I know there is a link to the nvidia at the bottom of the page but there seems to be nearly ten links to different things to download for windows, which ones do I need to install.
Thanks
Alex

You will need the latest version of drivers for your video card. You will also need cuda 3.0 toolkit <http://www.nvidia.com/object/thankyou.html?url=/compute/cuda/3_0/toolkit/cudatoolkit_3.0_win_32.exe>. That should be it.

Hi,
the toolkit is not needed on windows, just the latest drivers from the nvidia homepage.
the toolkit is only required on mac and linux.
