Hello! I just noticed that after installing a second GTX 480, bithe 1500 ddr ram, only one of them was using the full ram available, the other device only uses 544... Is It normal, like a part of the main board is used by default for windows ?Image

Try disabling SLI in the NVIDIA control panel (i.e. disable multi-GPU and PhysX). You also might want to use beta 2.51 we released today.

Cheers,
Marcus

Beta 2.51 is out! Great!!!
I have to tell you how much I love the new Direct lighting options.
I still have issues with the smoothing from Lighwave and modo. Hope the exporters will be updated some day soon...
Other than that (and I'm using other "unbiased" renderer), Octane is my favorite, interface and performance wise.
Thank you!
