Hello dev team. I have a report about rc3 release.
I have a scene which uses 605 mb Vram on 2.58 version. Same scene uses 818 mb of Vram on RC3 release.

Also on the RC3 release in the Octane preview window it shows 3.777 GB as Maximum Vram capacity of 4gb gtx680.However same files on 2.58 release it shows 3.973 as Maximum Vram.

i am using Zotac Gtx 680 4gb. Windows 7 x64.
The 2.58 version is installed on 3ds Max 2012 64bit.
The Rc3 Relase is installed on 3ds Max 2013 64bit.

I hope you can solve it. Good lucks.

2.58 doesn't support 680 anyway.
2.58 shows full vram amount.
RC3 shows only available for octane (3dsmax consumes about 200Mb)

sorry Its my bad. You can delete this topic. The 2.58 uses 905 mb not 605. But the Maximum Vram problem is true.

This bag is only on RC3. In RC2 everything is fine - Octane sees 1.2GB
