Just realised I've been working the past few days with SLI still turned on in the nvidia control panel... but I didn't actually notice any issues in Octane stand alone and the C4D plug in!?
The settings still saw and activated both cards!
Has Octane been updated at some point so that it ignores SLI rather than us having to turn it off...or is the some quirk I now need to work out of my system?
Forgot to turn SLI off...

I'm using the DAZ Studio plugin.
Only weird thing I see is some crashes on Scene - New; most of the time Studio crashes.
But ir renders with one or two cards, set to SLI in NVIDIA Control Panel.
Nice bug, if it is a bug...

I think it depends on the specific setup.
We recommend disabling SLI because for some users it causes major problems.
On other setups like yours, it doesn't seem to cause any.
Bottom line is, if you don't experience any difference or problems with it on, and you want it on for gaming, then go ahead. Just keep this in mind however, and if you see any problems in octane at all, then first thing would be to disable SLI.
Thanks
Chris.
