  After Effects not accepting GPU

  Posted by Erin Bradzz on June 15, 2016 at 3:46 pm

  Updated AE recently and it isn’t connecting to my GPU I have installed. Latest version of CUDA, attached screenshots. I’m still new with Adobe so hoping someone can help me out

  CUDA is an NVIDIA technology. It only works on NVIDIA cards. You have an integrated Intel graphics card. You can’t use CUDA with your hardware.

  That’s ok. The only thing that Ae uses CUDA for is making the ray-tracing renderer work faster. The ray-tracing renderer will eventually be replaced [link] , so really, don’t worry about this for now.

  And uninstall those drivers. Your Intel hardware can’t use them, and their presence may cause conflicts with software that tries to use them.
