  • “Use Display GPU for compute” option

    I’ve always kept this option disabled for a good reason, but its been so long that I don’t remember why. A davinci support guy just told me to enable it. So its possible my concern is dated.

    I’ve got a titan as GUI, and dual TitanX’s in a cubix. GUI feeding dual 30″ monitors. 10.11.3 with latest nvidia, etc.

    Anyone have helpful experience on this?

    Thanks!

    To take full advantage of this, the UI GPU should be a match to your rendering GPUs, otherwise performance is throttled to the lowest common denominator, so the (plain vanilla?) Titan might not drag down your Titan X’s, but if there is a large memory mismatch there might be an effect.
