Using OpenGL in AE
I have a Nvidia GeForce 9800M GTS 1GB videocard, along with 4GB of DDR3 RAM. I am needing the best performance out of my laptop so that AE will render as quickly and smoothly as possible. Which are the optimal settings for OpenGL and other RAM settings inside AE, and does anyone have insight into the actual Nvidia program’s settings so that my laptop will reach maximum performance with the given hardware specs. I think that by making some changes to the videocard settings, along with AE’s settings will provide better performance out of the machine, rather than simply running on the default settings.
Thank you in advance for your help,

I have OpenGL acceleration turned on for previews, with the Fast Previews setting set to OpenGL – Interactive. That is very useful, since it makes dragging things around much snappier but also uses the more reliable CPU renderer when I’m not actively changing property values.
But I certainly don’t use OpenGL for rendering for final output.
