I have a new rig with a Xeon E5-2630 v2, 64gb ram and a EVGA GeForce 980 GTX. When processing dense cloud I get this error in the console (see attachment). Why is this? Is it a driver issue or something else? The set I am running now only has about 20 images @20mb

Hi
Yea that's due to a driver issue. Because the GPU fails during the dense cloud process it reverts back to the CPU which is immensely slower for this step than the GPU.
The solution is to roll back to driver version 337.88.

Ah, great, thanks for the quick response :D
-
Hmm, the 337.88 isn't compatible with the 980 gtx. Any suggestions?
-
Oh that's unfortunate....
In that case I'm out of options. The only ones I can find for your card are v.344.xx which I assume produces these failures. :-\

So I have a GTX 970 and updated 2 days ago to the pre-release of the new agisoft software..
AND IT IS WONDERFUL!!! :-)
It fully supports the new nvidia drivers and wow, it is seriously faster then my i7 :-) I can now do a dense cloud in high render in 10 minutes, while this normally took over an hour :-)
