Mercury Engine CUDA
Hello,
I’m running Premiere off of a PC Win7. I have a GTX680 and a Titan in my system for running Davinci Resolve. I know little about the Mercury Engine, but my understanding is that it runs the program off of the CUDA instead of the processor. Now, the way I have the cards in my system for Resolve is the first setting is the 680. Will Premiere look at only this card, or can I direct it to the faster Titan, or both?
Thanks ahead of time for your time and responses.

Here’s a very good rundown on what’s what with CUDA and the Mercury Playback Engine, which are two separate entities that sometimes cross paths:

If you have Premiere Pro CC, it will use a single GPU during playback but will use multiple GPUs during export.

Premiere will default to the Primary video card that Windows has selected as the Primary display out. To change it you have to go into the Nvidia Control panel and set the preferred GPU that you want to use for the GPU acceleration.
