| Cycles Raytrace mode uses 100% GPU for everything it does, so of course it’s going to max out most of the time. (Turntable is not designed to work with Cycle’s Raytrace mode.) Raytrace is using the GPU 100% even though the display may still seem slow. | Cycles Raytrace mode uses 100% GPU for everything it does, so of course it’s going to max out most of the time.
