Hey!

I've got a RTX 2080 Ti + RTX 3060 Ti in my system.
The 20series is the lead GPU in the first PCIe slot which also has the monitors connected to.
I'm aware that Windows 10 steals around 20% of VRAM but why from both cards? Is it possible to assign only one for the steal?
In octane render preferences, it says 1.7GB unavailable for 2080 Ti and 1.3GB unavailable for 3060 Ti.

Thanks!

You can turn off RTX. That will free up some Vram. The same goes for Denoise which you can do per card.

When rendering you can adjust "Parallel Samples" if you need more Vram but within limits.
