OTOY Forums

I am planning on getting the gtx580 3gb.

I currently have a AMD Phenom quad processor.

I think I read somewhere that users with AMD processors appear to have problems using Octane.

Is this a problem for me? I just wanted to make sure before I invest a few hundred on a gpu.

Cheers

I have an AMD X6 - 1055T CPU.It works in Octane,no problem.

You might be have thinking about comments made by others about AMD GPU's.

Of course , you can't use them.You do need an Nvidia GPU to operate in Octane.

The GTX580 3GB sounds like a great choice.

Yeah thanks for the advice.

I'm probably going to purchase it now.

I'll post some performance results on the forum because I haven't seen a gtx580 demonstrated with Octane yet.
