Hello,
I have two graphics cards in my computer, one of them has 4 Gb of Video RAM, and the other has 1.5 GB.
Is it possible to use RAM of one of cards and CUDA cores of the other one?
If so, how does one achieve that?

Hi and no you cant.
Use bigger card for display then you have full 1.5 GB of smaller card for Octane.
For bigger scenes you have to disable smaller card.
