It looks like the Asus Gtx 570 Direct Cu 11 has better cooling which will help the card last longer. Both models should appear to Sony Vegas the same. Make sure you have a good power supply in your new system. It should probably be 600W or better. I went with an 800W gold rated power supply.

If there are only a few spikes, you could split the events on the timeline and Normalize would work as you expected.

I would recommend the 500 series, because with my GTX570 the GPU utilization rarely goes above 30% with Sony Vegas. With the money you save you could get something that would make your editing more productive (maybe some FASST apps or some plug-ins)

You might be putting too much strain on the USB 3.0 bus. It is interrupt driven unlike firewire. When you cannot view the clips on the external drives within Vegas, is that also true from Windows Explorer? If so, then it looks like those drives/USB interface are the problem. When I was having some similar issues with my USB 3 external drive and finally just added another sata internal drive to use.

It could be because the 600 series cards were not officially supported. The 500 series works, I have the GTX570. In theory the API should abstract the architecture changes NVidia made, but the primary focus for the GTX cards are gaming rather than CUDA and OpenCL parallel computing. Try the latest beta or certified drivers as NVidia eventually addresses some issues. If you read the NVidia release notes, they are all about increasing performance in games and rarely mention CUDA updates.
In version 12 of Sony Vegas you now have the option to choose OpenCL or CUDA, indicating that there are varying issues with these two libraries as supported by the different video card manufactures. I would recommend using CUDA with NVidia as that has been their native interface for years. OpenCL was to allow support for NVidia and ATI, but seems like the implementation is not quite mature across all video drivers yet.

You can have both 11 and 12 installed. What you may have seen on this forum is a recommendation to only install 12 and remove 11 if you were experiencing problems with a version 11 install. Those problems would sometimes impact version 12 too.
Systems vary widely, so if version 11 was working for you, then installing version 12 will be fine and you can use both versions as needed. I have both versions installed, but rarely launch version 11 except to try and reproduce a problem mentioned on this forum. Version 12 with the NewBlue Titler Pro v1 is much more stabler now than when version 11 first came out.

I can’t tell by the information in your posts, but how are you testing the DVD? Are you using a DVD player other than your computer or using your computer’s DVD player software? Does this player support 5.1 audio with other disks? I was wondering if the player was set to play stereo rather than 5.1. I have not tried 5.1 audio yet with DVDA.

Looks like you could sort by details and select the first clip and then either shift click the last one or press Ctrl-A to select all the rest. In case Ctrl-click gets too tedious. I have had this issue when importing photos to the timeline.

The module looks like it is from the Windows Media Player. Was there an update recently on your system? That would explain why reinstalling Sony Vegas did not resolve the problem. Do you have a system restore point to try?

Another possibility is to find another video card that has a DVI port and then get a cable (DVI to HDMI).
