If the issue reproduces with a specific scene only, then the issue could be a bug or an insufficient memory issue. If the issue reproduces with every single scene file (including a new empty file), then the reason for the error is either the driver (1) or the hardware (2). Try to also render a new empty file, this is the easiest way to find out whether the issue is general and occurs with every scene, or it's scene-dependent. To narrow down the possible cause try to render other projects/scenes and see if the same error occurs again or not.

The next step you need to check is whether the error occurs with specific scenes/projects only. Solution: Contact your hardware supplier or OS support to assist you on this matter.Īdditional information regarding hardware malfunctioning can be found here. V-Ray is not the root cause here, it only triggers the error. If there is an issue with V-Ray Benchmark and other benchmarks, this means that the CUDA error is related to hardware or OS malfunction. In addition, you can also perform tests with software like FurMark, OctaneBench, RedshiftBench and etc. To identify if this is the case, we recommend performing GPU (CUDA) stress tests with V-Ray Benchmark.

The graphics card installed on the machine might work fine with most everyday tasks, but it could be unstable when heavily utilized with software like V-Ray GPU. Solution: Install recommended GPU driver. Often newer versions of drivers work just fine but for the best V-Ray GPU experience, we advise using the recommended driver. The current recommended driver can be found at the top of the V-Ray GPU website here.įor the user's convenience, V-Ray GPU performs a graphics driver check at the beginning of the render and prints a warning message in the V-Ray Messages Log window if the current driver is different from the recommended one. ( Here is a video showing you how to check it) NVidia Control Panel > Help > System information. You can check the currently installed driver's version by going to: Using the recommended driver is essential for a stable experience with V-Ray GPU. Please follow the troubleshooting steps below in order starting from Step 1.

They may be caused by several different factors, more information about each of them could be found below. This guide provides information on how to troubleshoot and resolve V-Ray GPU crashes causing the following error messages:ĬUDA error 719, Cuda error 700, Could not release device bufferĬUDA and Optix errors may be encounter during production or interactive rendering with the V-Ray GPU render engine.
