Karba - I have two questions about this second benchmark scene:
1. Why did you use GI clamp value of 0,05 when exposure is 40 ( the formula 1/exposure=GI clamp) , so 1/40 = 0,025 ?
2. Why you used standart target camera instead of Fstorm camera ?
thanks for the benchmark scene !

Download the Scene takes more time than to Render it

Can you RT with this configuration to show your memory? I'm trying to understand how an 8gb (1080) and a 4GB (970) are managed by the engine... so far I can tell that only one memory gets allocated by all the dual card benchmarks here but all of them are of equal ammount, I would like to know what happens in this particular case. Thank you

[mitviz]

basically it will render with both cards but as long as the scene uses under 4 gigs it will use both cards if the scene used more than 4 gigs then the 970 could not be used

[aranmor]

So it will always use the less memory card that meets the scene requirement for allocation and buffer, but will use the CUDA from all the those that meet said requirement? right? Is there a way for developers to actually sum up all of the physical memories? would SLI help on this matter? why does my 2 970s show less than 2GB available always on the RT status dialog? (feel free not to answer to my noob questions, but if you do.. Thank you)

Great render time. Are these magnificent card Oc'ed or just stock...

[rock]

Cards are at stock speed..... the only change from the original is that they are water cooled...

I think those number are not correct or maybe you wanted to write 17? Look at the other GTX 970 results.

Hey your right !! I installed the latest Nvidia drivers and also re downloaded 0.3.6a 23/10/2016 as recommended.
So I'm not sure it it was the drivers or the re download that speed it up.
My render times now are: 18:55s

I made a second test with FStorm v0.3.6a and took longer, used more memory and cleared less area.
