GPU not Rendering, only CPU

I have CPU rendering off and only GPU rendering on with OptiX. Don't know why it's rendering with CPU.

    If your using one of the new nvidia 2000 series cards, you will need to use the Beta version of DS for the GPU to work.

    Edit - I notice you're using a 1080ti. Have you selected it in the render settings options?

    Yes, selected all 3 GPUs, CPU off, Optix On, Medium Threshold = 64, High = 256 (Down from the 512 & 1024 default)

    Usually it lists the texture consumption after the geometry consumption. I've noticed on my machine when it skips that listing of the textures, it means the total has gone beyond the RAM of the video card, and so gets dumped to CPU automatically.

    At first try my 2080 wouldn't work but after closing DS and restarting it's worked fine ever since.

  • There have been several reports of thisd happening when Optix acceleration is enabled, Try disabling optix.
