Do i have to disable SLI in order to have multiple GPU cards used by Octane? I remember reading a post saying we need this disabled, still teh case?

Mine seems to work with SLI enabled, but there is a performance hit. I think it was around 15% or so with two 970s in my system.

I'm an Octane newbie so I don't know if other oddities exist doing it either.

I have had reports from users of cuda based crashes, and disabling SLI fixed these issues. That was a while back though, so perhaps the latest Cud drivers resolve these issues.
