phoenixart Posted September 17, 2021 Posted September 17, 2021 Hi there, I'm in the middle of doing some hardware change to my PC, and thus I momentarily removed one of my two 1080ti. So, while at the moment working with one 1080ti only, I decided to give Affinity Photo 1.10.1 another try. To my surprise, it hasn't crashed yet. I have the feeling that if I plug back my second 1080ti things my start breaking again. Not sure whether this helps the devs in any way, but I thought to report this here just in case.

phoenixart Posted September 19, 2021 Author Posted September 19, 2021 After further testing, I can confirm that the crashes happen when two 1080ti are both active. After I plugged back in the second GPU, I noticed that when I tried to open two documents, Affinity Photo was again closing with no warning. Next, I simply disabled one GPU from the device manager And tried to open the two documents, which now I can open without issues.

Jörn Reppenhagen Posted September 19, 2021 Posted September 19, 2021 I am using one single RTX 2070 - and I also have that crashes. Maybe the solution is Serif buying us a second graphic card for removal. Quote
phoenixart Posted September 20, 2021 Author Posted September 20, 2021 Upon further testing, I think the reason why disabling one GPU works is that Affinity Photo at that point doesn't use GPU acceleration at all. I tested it on heavier files, and it feels slower than 1.9.2 with hardware acceleration. So, long story short, I'm reverting to 1.9.2 once again. I wish Affinity had an option like in Blender 3D to enable/disable GPUs Jörn Reppenhagen 1 Quote Piero Desopo Direction, Design <http://phoenixart.com> Photography <http://www.pierodesopo.com>
Staff Chris B Posted September 22, 2021 Staff Posted September 22, 2021 Hey phoenixart, We have no experience running two cards in SLI but we have had an iGPU, dGPU and eGPU all going at once without issue. Can you find a crah report we could look at? Affinity Store version - Go to %AppData%\Affinity\Photo\1.0\CrashReports\reports You can access the AppData folder by pressing the Windows key + R on your keyboard and then just type %AppData% Quote How to format a bug report | Learning Resources | List of V2 FAQs | YouTube Tutorials
Pajogus Posted September 22, 2021 Posted September 22, 2021 Hello there, I started to write this because I can't work the 1.10.x version. Crash after crash since I've installed the 1.10.x version. If I disable the OpenGL function it's a bit better but still crashes. My solution is that I've installed again 1.9.2 and at least this works like before. By the way it's the second time I've installed again the former version because of a new NVidia driver I gave version 1.10 another try but unfortunately again problems.

That said, I believe the crash report will look very similar to the others I posted in the other thread. Anyway, I attached the latest in case it might be useful. c894cb77-254c-4b8b-9010-2541c55d9592.dmp Chris B 1 Quote Piero Desopo Direction, Design <http://phoenixart.com> Photography <http://www.pierodesopo.com>
