GPU memory full?

Get Help
1

Hi D5 Team.

I’ve encountered problem here.

Previously i’m using GTX 1060 4GB. Although the rendering for 1 image took about more than 1hr. But still can running it.

Now, i’ve upgrade the GPU to 3080ti with 12GB…the problem is…my memory almost full? :sweat_smile::sweat_smile::sweat_smile:

The model almost about the same. Just add on some trees.

I’m a lumion user previously, when this kind of thing happen… basically we just split the sketchup files.

For example : 1 Hi Rise development with 3 blocks apartment & carpark multi storey. We just split each block. So total 4 files. Then import on the lumion. The memory issue solved.

Its like merging as we have it in D5. Although i’m not trying the merging method, but i did try to do same as what I’ve done in lumion. But no luck.

I’ve done much bigger 3d model in Lumion, the method works fine although only with GTX 1060.

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Hello,
sorry to hear that you ran into the problem. Could you try opening the demo scene of D5 then check the result? Also, please run D5 benchmark tool then show us the result:
D5 Render

Besides, the Windows resources manager may be not accurate, you can try monitoring the VRAM with GPU-Z.

If the problem persists, and it happens to a specific file only, then we may need to check your file for further troubleshooting.

To confirm, your video driver is downloaded from Nvidia official?

Yes, driver from nvidia official.

Hi, how’s the rendering going recently? It can render normal images, right?
From the benchmark results and GPU-z, we think the GPU works as normal, but you may need to make sure the power supply is large enough.

Hi Oliver,

Sorry for the late reply. Finishing off my annual leave for two weeks. :laughing:

I’ve tried yesterday, it works fine. Rendering 16k image at 16min.

I dont think because off PSU. Coz already using as per Nvidia requirement.

Not sure if its clashing with anti virus software (coz i’ve just uninstalled Avira Anti Virus yesterday).

But will keep on update if there is any issue.

Thanks. Have a great New Year to all D5 teams. :blush: :hand_with_index_finger_and_thumb_crossed:

Hi, I also have somewhat similar issue. My GPU core is used at 40-45% but the VRam is used at max. Resulting in very time consuming renderings.
