Hello,

I'm verrrrry interested in that plugin. I got the Octane license some time ago, but have not used it a lot. I'm just about renewing my video card. 

What I read in the Otoy forums is that the Nvidia 5xx cards are faster than their respective 6xx counterparts (about 10..15%), but the 6xx cards are less noisy and can store 4 times more texture references (256 instead of 64), so I'm going for one of the 6xx now. Slower speed can be compensated by waiting longer, but if some scene does not upload due to a hard limit, the time invested for reducing / merging texture maps would outweight the render time difference.

Best regards,

   Michael
