Support for Maxwell GPU's GTX 750 and GTX 750Ti

Mon Mar 24, 2014 5:54 pm

Hi,
I own Maxwell Geforce GTX 750 Ti graphics card and I'm really looking forward to get it supported by Octane Renderer.

Please give me and some other Maxwell GPU users out there some info on the predicted time this GPUs will be supported by Octane Renderer.

already answered somewhere, that they can't say exactly when..
so You need to way for some time =)..noOne to blame here.

why did you became the owner of a GTX 750 Ti?

we'll I guess everyone wants new piece of hardware, but the reality that noOne in the shop will explain. taht's a bit of adownside with New programs, or new hardware - sometime these are not compatible for a while & You need to wait some time or do a bit of homework before ordering.

750(ti) is a nice small & Efficient card. Though performance remains to be seen..

Got my 750ti to power my new monitor mainly.My old GTX460 just wouldn't cut it for 2560 x 1440 res.The 460 is now relegated to rendering duties and powering the 2nd screen.So as and when it can assist in Octane rendering so much the better,but at this moment it's not essential.

Lets hope the rejigging of the warp Schedulers on Maxwell will make it more efficient than the drop off that Nvidia had with keplar after Fermi.

I read somewhere that part of the efficiency push was to make the warp schedulers keep the cuda cores constantly fed with data.Hopefully when the team do make it run octane we may see some decent performance.
