I’m just looking at the 600 series cards. Based on that and other sources I’ve seen the 680 performance is sub-par to the 580 despite its increased specs. Nvidia has said that they’re “focusing on gaming” for that line of cards.

Thanks for that. It’s unfortunate it looks like they are intentionally crippling the GTX series to mark up prices for production cards.
-
Thanks for all the useful information. Does anyone know of a reliable source for After Effects benchmarks with Quadro/GTX cards?
I’ve looked and looked but can not find a site with After Effects benchmarks. Everything for the most part revolves around gaming.

Hey David,
I’m curious about your post. Why are the 600 series not on your list? Do they not work with Mac OS or is there truth to some of the articles I’ve been reading about the 600 series reduced performance? Thanks for your post. -
Ah, thanks for that information. Does anyone know if there is a significant difference between nvidia and AMD when it comes to GPU rendering? This website seems to favor the Radeon HD 7970 by quite a bit.

Is anyone using this card? Would it make a good match for After Effects? (raytrace aside)

I have been doing some exhaustive research on the 500 and 600 series GTX cards. Unfortunately it would seem that the GPU rendering isn’t improved from the 500 series and is actually diminished greatly from the GTX 580.
Here’s what I found:

https://www.anandtech.com/show/5699/nvidia-geforce-gtx-680-review/17Also, AMD cards aren’t supported by After Effects on Windows 7 correct? Some of their cards trounce Nvidia on bench marks and I’d like to look into getting one of those.
At this time I’m considering a GTX 580 3Gb but it would be nice to go with a newer card. Does anyone have experience with any of these cards?

It’s Motion 4.0.3.
Alright I’ll have to give them a ring tomorrow. Hopefully there will be some obscure but easy fix They’ll have for me.

I haven’t called tech support yet. the system is running mostly top notch otherwise though. I just don’t understand why there would only be a problem with just this one program. I’m running 10.7.1 all updates accounted for.

Getting to the other drive worked for the quicktime conversion. I think I’ll just avoid the system drive in the future although it would seem there’s plenty of space (400 out of 511Gb). Going to compressor now to see if it’s good to go. Thanks a lot for your time and knowledge it was a big help!
cheers,

-It’s the system drive that is 511Gb with 400Gb free.
-I’m not sure how big the file will be. It’s coming from a timeline that’s 18 minutes long through quicktime conversion into prores 422.
“3) Have you tried exporting a self contained QT at current settings first, then using that as your master to compress to another codec?”
-I think that’s what I’m trying by going through Quicktime conversion then jumping to Compressor, right?

I’m attempting to do QT conversion again to a non-system drive that has 2.12Tb of 3Tb free. It seems to be going faster, fingers crossed it works.
