Hello Forum,
we need a new Card with more Vram. We actually use two 980ti and need more space for further Projects with a lot of Polys. Is the new Nvidia Titan X (Pascal) ready for use in Octane for c4d?
I read that it is in experimental state, but is it possible to render with those cards?

Thank you
Christian

Hi ultranerd,
yes sure, you can use any Pascal card with c4dOctane, just be sure to use a version above 3.03.2, even better the latest one 3.03.4
Experimental support means that for now Pascal card are working with a mix of CUDA 7.5 and 8, so it doesn't take complete advantage of the new architecture. The final cuda 8 version has just been realised, so we have to wait that the SDK takes advantage of it completely, anyway this has nothing to do with VRAM usage, so you can already use tham succesfully.
Her you can find some "unofficial" benchmarcs with Titan X Pascal:
