Can Octane run on a Different GPU?

I am trying to get Octane Standalone to run on a separate GPU from Cinema. I have manually set the GPU allocation for each application, however, Octane still runs on the same GPU as Cinema, regardless. Must this be the case? If not, how to solve?

The answer is yes, it can, though the results are negligible. Seems that any scene in Cinema using Octane will grind to a halt, making the whole process a waste of time...

in the octane settings, you should be able to tick the gpu you want octane to use.

Yes, and I did so
Seems like my project is just a monster, in terms of overall objects (which, BTW, includes item tags and pretty much everything in Cinema)... I'm working to reduce the complexity as much as I can, and that might help a bit.
