Can't Set the GPU to visualise and render my models

[daniel.waiger]

Hi,

For an unknown reason, I can't make Fusion360 to utilize one of the 2 GPUs installed on the server (2*CPU: Xeon Silver 4210R) I'm running it on (Windows server 2019). I've been looking for a solution for 2 weeks, and saw what should be defined on the NVIDIA control panel to enable the GPUs (RTX A6000) when I run the application.

[GPU Information]
GPU Device: Microsoft Basic Render Driver
GPU RAM: 128 MB
GPU Driver API: DirectX 9.0
GPU Driver Version: 10.0.17763.1432
GPU Driver Date: 11/27/2020

Hi,

GPU Rendering is not available in Fusion.

Fusion Renderings use the CPU.

As you mention, you need to tell the Fusion 360 application to use your Nvidia graphics card.

Hi,

Thanks for replying.

I meant to the "live" render of the model, not the render module.

Any leads?

It seems like Fusion doesn't "see" my GPUs, no matter what I've tried (except reinstalling).

I've tried to do so, no success, any other way to do that?

Thank you!

Did your Restart the server after you did the Nvidia Control Panel change?
