3dsmax not using new Firepro gpu (except in Quicksilver Hardware Renderer)

[Anonymous]

so when I render in anything other than Quicksilver Renderer with my AMD Firepro W8100 I can't take advantage of my gpu power....and even in Quicksilver the quality seems crap and the gpu usage is in spurts.

Does Vray not take advantage of GPU driven rendering in 3ds Max 2015?  I thought it did...AMD evven filmed a video showing the use of Vray in 3ds Max rendering with the W9100.  WTF?

V-Ray RT should take advantage of that video card.

right? i know.

I read up i little more and one thing I didn't do was switch the Renderer to Vray "RT" which is for GPU renderers apparent. So anyway I switched over to that and then proceeded to look online to the setting to use but their aren't any instructions as of yet that i can find that AMD released for Vray RT...weird.

Any way I was then fussing around with the Vray RT render tabs and switching over my 'engine' to OpenCl (single kernal).  I then went to render with default setting ( minus engine change) with a black screen with the renderer diag box reporting with "...rendering image".  I left that like that for hours without luck--no render occured--just black black Vray render buffer window :(.  (i'll post the images here)
