Will 1080 Ti improve my 4K rendering times?

[Aaron Star]

As someone said earlier in the thread, it is hard to offer suggestions with out details on specific hardware, Vegas version, project setting, media format info, and details on effects being used, ect.

For cuts only editing CPU is king with a certain amount assist from the GPU. For editing that contains computation heavy effects like blurs, the GPU would show performance improvement.

You could trying converting your source media to another format, then test renders using that format to see if there is optimization between formats. For example, convert XAVC-s to Intra format, or xavc to prores, or h264 camera phone original to one of the previsious mentioned formats.

heads up first I bought a brand new lap top with a 1060 installed and can’t open up any version of Pro, it gets stuck a GPU Initializing. Have spotted other forums with others with the same problem. No solution to the problem, maybe a compatibility issue. Just a friendly heads up to be prudent
