I've got 2 GPU's in my system, nvidia 980 GTX and an nvidia 1070 GTX. The default GPU is the 1070 which is about 1.3x more powerful than the 980. In the nvidia control panel I can select which GPU Sierra is assigned to for OpenGL and CUDA. If I leave it on the 1070 sierra runs great and the GPU load is about 33%. I tried to assign sierra to the 980 however (for CUDA and OpenGL) and it's unusable. The load on GPU varies every couple of seconds from 50-90% (in task manager) and makes the whole system sluggish (windows 10 latest). The difference in GPU load doesn't make sense as I would expect it to be around 50-60% max on the 980 given the difference in capabilities of the GPUs. Not sure what's causing this. Maybe the 980 isn't supported yet or not optimised. Or maybe I'm not setting everything needed up to use the 980 correctly? Are optimisations expected down the line? btw i'm running 1986 Date Time Of Last Edit: 2019-09-08 10:06:39
