Hi all,

Can I fix Quadro 5000 & GTX 5xx series together to run octane render?
Any suggestion about this if workable.

Thanks a lot!

In general they should work =) though sometimes there are some issues with conflicting drivers. Read that in some cases guys loose some of potensial on their quadro cards (not for render time) but for other things like frame rates on some specific apps etc. Can not confirm that or deny, 'cos I run on GtXs only. And idea would be to run screen on Your Quadro and render on GTX only - this way Your system will be more responsive if You need to do something while You rendering =)
