Hey guys
nice chart but my question is: what is about an gtx 770???????
Best Regards
Jona Woggon
do you have a gtx7XX?
if so please download the linked file and see me your results and i can add it to the chart

i believe the 760 and 690 have different compute levels. AE will use as many cards that are in the system so long as they have the same compute level. It looks like this result used the 690 for raytracing
No, they both have compute level of 3 (https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-gpus) and worked together, on a stand alone GTX 690 was about 10 minutes.
ah, interesting, any 7xx series card lower than a 780 still uses the 6XX compute level even though the 780 is the oldest

hi, i wantetd to check out some configs on my machine
got a quadro 4000, tesla C2075 and a gtx 580 –
i downloaded the afx file – opened it but the little robot didn´t show up as it should??? what happened – afx didn´t complain about any missing files / plugs..??? thanks
worked for me. make sure you have raytrace on. top right corner of the monitor window.
have you tried using raytracing? are you sure its working on your machine?
hi, i´m using a hackintosh (just started to set it up…)
i unplugged the gtx 580 – this migth have caused the trouble – the little robot is showing now `))
question – when i render the comp (i left it untouched) it will use gpu and cpu – both together because i see the cpu full on at the activity monitor..??
CPU use should be low.
Make sure that in prefs->previews-> GPU Information, raytracing is set to GPU
if it doesnt show up you havent added the card to the txt file yet for AE to see it.
this wont be necessary in 12.1
what you mean with 12.1 ? know the little robot is appearing at the beginning but as it moves forward the screen turns black and just the red squares of the shapes are displayed.. ?? i don´t know windows – hopefully i can install afx and have a try there..
AE ver 12.1 is should be available to CC subscribers sometime in OCT 2013.
In the prefs will be a checkbox to allow unsupported nvidia cards as long as they have at least a gig of vram i believe
ok i got afx 11 – might be a point? i will try to install afx on win and give it a try there.. in the meanwhile thanks for you help `))
sorry stupid – through tryouts i was switching to cpu – so forget about the acitvity monitor on full power `)
as i go on gpu again – raytracing seems not to work.. strange because both grafic cards show up in the prefs – preview windows (even the gtx 580 which i wrote into the afx – contents)??? any suggestions? thanxs

curious why I have better results with the same card than the poster above using AE-CC
Hi Dmitri! There is a magical 4 GHz line at the CPU. OC the 3930k, and there is a really good chance to get better result!
What’s better for AE – Titan or gtx780TI? And what about results of tests? I’m the only one who see only white squre instead of information list?;)
i’d like to have a precision if you have time for that. i am currently on a mac pro 4.1 (early 2009) with ATI Radeon HD 4870 512 MB and 16Go RAM running on OSX10.8.5 only (no bootcamp), i am using Adobe CC mostly and C4D as well.
i intend to double the RAM, and which card would you advise me ? is GTX 680 mac edition suitable and easily usable on my solution?

why this test file renders gtx780 ti and other projects in August I no longer turns on?

please ignore – I am a total fool talking about the other AE CS6 benchmark.

This is important to me because I was JUST going to buy a Z820 dual CPU monster. Now I know, the video card is the right way to go.
Thanks A LOT. You just saved me a grand.
Great
the GPU is working great with this test project
but not working with other projects
why?
who can help me please

@ Curtis
How did u managed to get RayTracing working with GTX980 ? I just bought a GTX970 and tested it with Trial AE CC ver. 13.5 and gives me errors. The RT engine won´t work, saddly. I tried to update driver, CUDA driver, aldo added my card to the supported card in the .txt file inside AE and checked the “Enable Untested ..” in Preferences.
Tnx for ur answer.
Adobe actually didn’t update the Core Drivers for ray tracing for Maxwell and Pascal Cards. I can’t speak for pascal but I got around it by updating the Optix dll with a newer one from nvidia (you have to join a developers thing to get it). It does break CPU ray tracing and I havn’t tested all the features yet.
also if you’re wondering why I took so long to reply
its because I JUST GOT THE EMAIL notification for it
my site was “updated” a while back and it broke… finally had the time to go back and forth with the hosting company and got it fixed. just saw the comments!
Raytracer development was ended a few years ago so i also have lost most interest in the topic :/

How about the new gtx960, 970 and 980?
How do they perform since these three cards are currently not on the official list of supported GPUs for the ray-traced 3D renderer?
And are there any noticeable drops in performance due to the vram issues of the gtx970?
Sry for my bad englando, it’s not my native language. Thanks for your work here!
You need to patch the optix before you can benchmark them. and i only did the 850m
Haha, so happy ! Just realized that my shity card , a GT 630 with 2GB, works too . Just added to the list of accepted cards in txt file in the AE folder. Sweet 😀
Can u give a hint on how to patch the Optix ? Tnx.
I have a 980TI, and using macOS Sierra 10.12.3, and CS6 I could not get raytracing to work yet…. it may work with CC but I do not have that version…. Fast draft works. hardware acceleration for interface works…. the card is recognized, but no raytracing.
funny enough, the machine is such a beast, it renders the test comp in 10:30 WITHOUT a GPU acceleration….
