New to Octane - Sorry if this is a 'noob' question.

Hi, I'm waiting on a new pc which I should get Mon/Tues next week. I'm a bit confused about what version of Octane to use, when I bought my license I was given instructions to download pre-Beta 2.3 v5 as well as cuda 3.0. I've noticed that there is a more recent version available to download which uses cuda 3.2.
Any ideas on what I should use? I'll be using Win7 64 and a GTX470.
Thanks in advance guys.

Use the latest version for CUDA 3.2, of course

Thanks matej! And I'm guessing you can only have one version of cuda installed?

afaik, yes. If for some reason 2.4 wont' work for you (but it should), you can always install older drivers with cuda 3.0 and use 2.3v5
See the 2.4 threads in the release candidate forums, for additional info
