Hi Paul

I am unsure if this is related to Octane or not, I am having my system re start when ever I try an render any Poser scene. Itletrally turns off. If I do not use Octane my system runs fine, I am putting cards through some tests using some online games w/graphics turned way up now and things run fine, not crashing.

I have 2 cards

1. Titan
1. 770

I updated the NVIDA driver 334.89 and still crashing
I am running the 1.29 test build

PC has i7 3.6 quad
32 gig RAM

Not had this issue in the past, any advice to rule out Octnae?

install GPUz - try to look at those graphs - do You see anything suspicious (diff colors indicate some issues).
Octane put GPU under full load, might be something with power suplly..other programs miught be not so taxing..

Make sure SLI is OFF in your Nvidia settings.

Paul

thanks guys

Turns out the cards are over heating when rendering ..............

I have the side pannel open with a fan blowing on them and rednering fine now. Ill have to look into a new case or cooling or both

that why i went for watercooled. when you get 4 gfx in the same case you can cook egg with them,

whitch one was overheating? latelly one of my friends in tweeter has 780 over heating..updated GPU drivers, bios.. & the issue was gone.
Use provided tools (bundled software), both cards should be temperature targeted so You should be able to set temperatures & cards would stay in that region without any isues.. if there's too much heat & they couldn't cope the frequence &/or voltage will be lowered. - You might loose a bit of performance (5..at most 10%) but stability issues should be solved =)
