  • Does the new Nvidia 8800 GTX make a diffrence to Rendering?

    Does the new NVidia 8800 GTX make a difference to the GPU rendering speed of ReVision products like Magic Bullet over the older 7900 series of VGA cards?

    Cheers,

    No, only CPU

    I don’t think you’re right there Pierre. Magic Bullet for example is optimised for NVidia drivers and renders 25x the speed of CPU-only rendering. The difference when GPU rendering is switched on in the filter settings is huge. I just want to know if the latest generation NVidia cards will speed things up yet again.

    Ooops! Got that one wrong. 😉 Well, now that I’ve brought it up, how about GPU-enhanced rendering?
