AE CS6 11.0.1 CUDA BENCHMARK PROJECT – test your graphics cards!

[Ian Mapleson]

Andrea,

A P55 system! Cool! Hmm, just curious, what happens to the render time if you exclude
the GTS 450 from the CUDA pool? (configurable in NVIDIA Control Panel)

I’ll try it tonight. I think that the gtx 580 will align with other similar cards. I have just seen that my result is closed to a singular gtx 780 result.

[Ian Mapleson]

For using multiple GPUs with AE, there’s no need to use SLI/CF connectors, it will work fine
without them, ie. multiple 580s are ok without being directly linked.

The performance you’re seeing though is perfectly normal. A 580 beats all 700 series cards except
the 780 Ti for most CUDA tasks. See my earlier posts in this thread for detailed explanations.

Hi,
I use a GTX 970 with Adobe CC 2014, and I’m just stuck with the raytracing-problem (AE) with this card.
I registered as “developer” at nvidia to get access to the new version of optix.1.lib, but it takes very long to activate my account…
Could someone please upload the optix.1.lib or the installation routine, or send me a message?

Thank you very much!
Daniel

[Daniel Lattner]

ok, I’m now a developer and I can download the actual version of the optix dll. So please see my last entry as invalid 😉

Thank you,
Daniel

Your post just reminded me, anyone know if AE yet supports Maxwell CUDA V2? (980, etc.)
I mean proper support, not a lib hack or something.

I guess not. Just tested this project on AECC2015, Windows 8.1, i7-4790 @ 3.60 GHz, 16 Gb RAM, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980> gave me an estimated render time of around 3 hours!

[Ian Mapleson]

Yep, when I last tested it I saw the usual not-supported error, with the CUDA section blanked out in the settings panel (though of course OGL stuff is ok). Pity, I’d been looking forward to testing multiple 980s. I thought Adobe would add MW CUDA V2 support when the 980 Ti and Titan X came out, but nothing so far.
