Hello, is there any tricks to increase available Vram on Networked GPUS?
Obviusly reducing the scale of textures, etc, but anything else?
GTX 780ti have 3G of VRam but Octane only shows 2200 MB available for rendering.... ???
Thank you,
A

Try lowering parallel samples or use out of core rendering.

Hi asher,
you can also avoid Win 10:
viewtopic.php?f=12&t=51992
and use a low end card or iGPU for the monitors.
In this way you should be able to use almast all the 3GB of VRAM.

Is there a way do disable display on nodes altogether so no GPU is used for display so maximum GPU RAM can be used for rendering ?
