GPU advice on 2 cards for Vegas pro 13

[John Rofrano]

[tom ross] “Daft isn’t it?….you get a PC with a more modern ‘better’ graphics card in it and it is worse (in Vegas) than having an older one!”

Actually it makes perfect sense if you understand what’s going on inside. I’m not a guru on GPU architecture by any stretch of the imagination but what I understand is going on is that the new GPU architectures are actually using Dual GPU’s on the same card and Vegas Pro is only seeing one of them. This is why it’s slower with new cards because it’s effectively only using 1/2 of the cards GPU power.
