GPU Priority - what card is what?

[JayD]

New to Octane and I have a question with the Priority Low setting.

I want to choose Priority Low for my Card that is using the monitor and is in the first Mobo slot. But how do you know what card is which in the list? They all have the same name. Is the list from top to bottom match how I have them positioned on the Mobo slot 1, 3, 5?

But then in the octane viewport that shows the temp is bottom to top. I say this because my gpu in slot 1 usually runs the hottest and its at the bottom of the list.

Thanks

Run MSI afterburner and see proper gpu usage.

Thanks, Ill run a MSI.

But here is an image of my conundrum or is this a noob question. Should Otoy at some point show more detail to what gpu card is what in order for me to check the gpu I want too?
