Same old questions with GPU not rendering

kodoki2004_4040466

Here the first question So i downloaded 4.15 and starting creation, but what i realized that i can't render with my gpu, it says :iray rend error : cannot render: found no usable device AND iray render error : invalid parameters (null pointer) and only this, I'm sure that my gpu supporting cuda. I've tried slove it by myself by searching posts on forum, update drivers from 430.86 to newest ---not working, then now i just roll back to 417.01 it also doesn't work. I can see in (GPU-Z) my gpu doesn't work more than even 4％, yes of course it is if iray can't even found my device. So my card is GTX 650 Ti with 1gb (I know this is creepiest thing you ever heard but... This is best i can do with my wallet T_T ), what should i do, like to back to 4.10 Here the second question is if i go back to 4.10, not sure genesis 8 working or not? Do 4.10 support g8? I'll be waiting if some one answers me, thank you.

Ain't no way you're gonna get iRay to render on a 1GB VRAM GPU. Windows reserves a not insignificant bloack of VRAM for its own use (almost 1GB on my 6GB GTX1060), leaving next to no available VRAM for rendering.

Genesis 8 requires* 4.9.3 so 4.10 should be good.

* You can load, clothe, and pose genesis 8 figures in 4.8, but you can't use HD morphs or other Genesis 8 features that were added in 4.9 to support Genesis 8.

I would consider 6GB VRAM the minimum, there is no way that 1GB can render anything in IRAY

Attached a chart on RAM and VRAM usage during a rendering test I made, I have 8GB VRAM and 64GB RAM

So looks like I have to preparing for new card, thank you.

Are you trolling? GTX 650 TI? WHAT?! I would tell you to go and buy a new video card, but they're ridiculously expensive. I feel for you man!

Get an I7-9700 processor, that can still render pretty fast, just until video card pricess drop one day. Stop using DAZ and go make like $500.00 from a job, and get a new processor.  

The amount of time you spend trying to use GTX 650, could be better spent working a job to earn $1000.00 to upgrade your computer, then after it's upgraded, your productivty from DAZ work will triple, and you'll reach your goals much, much faster, especially if you want to make $$$ from daz renders.
