How to optimize a new iMac for After Effects

I bought the most tricked out available, with 32 GB of ram, a graphics card updated, all new iMac everything.

But export my project out of After Effects takes so much time on my new iMac, as it did on my macbook 2011 - about 6 hours.

I know how to handle my export settings, so maybe I just need to change my computer's system settings to work better with After Effects.

Mac had no advice and showed me Adobe, so I'm here.

Any advice?

Learn more about optimizing your system for AE and follow these guidelines, allocate multiples of 4 GB of ram for your process. At the very least keep the ram allocated in multiples of 2 GB. If you use the rendering of the MP, then make sure that the total number of processors equals the total number of processors. It is easy to end up with 0 actually used processors if you allocate too much ram to a core. If you use traced rendered section make sure that you have configured correctly and that you have a NVIDIA GPU correctly configured and installed the latest drivers, CUDA. You must check the box "use maps not taken in charge" in your preferences for rendering raytraced using CUDA is is no longer developed by Adobe. If you do not have or have not properly configured your NVIDIA card, then DO NOT install Cuda drivers.

Last point, note that all projects will work with MP because not all plugins and codecs are aware of MP well. Also, do not have your FAT disk cache. He has no sense cluttering up your available disk space and you strip total system bandwidth with a large number of redundant or unnecessary reading write cycles.

  • Best new Mac for After Effects

    I am a composer who works with After Effects and am in the market for a new computer. I'm trying to decide between an iMac (3.5 GHz quad-core i7, 8 to 32 GB of RAM, 3 TB Drive, NVIDIA GTX 780 M 4 GB GDDR5 Fusion) and a Mac Pro (3.7 GHz quad core, 12 to 64 GB of RAM, 256 GB to 1 TB of storage flash and Dual AMD over-pants D300 with 2 GB of GDDR5 VRAM GPU each/D500/D700-3 GB 6 GB). I was expecting some tips on the Mac Pro is worth the additional investment for After Effects - the software will take advantage of the extra power, or an iMac will be sufficient?

    After Effects is a program of CPU load and memory. The MacPro is faster, more scalable and more capable in all directions over the long term. Take any money you can save on the GPU and spend it on ram, buy some storage external thunderbolt, a table if you can afford it. External storage is a good idea for any system. The iMac will be a GPU capable or traced to the given radius, but it is a very slight advantage for a very limited type of project that will be of little benefit in the grand scheme of things.

  • Buy a new Machine for After Effects

    Can anyone give me some advice on which system to get to a user of After Effects, Maya and Photoshop.

    I'm looking for Dell and HP and I would like to know what level of processors, the amount of ram and what type

    video card etc. I would get a fast and reliable system without going overboard.

    MM, for 3-4 K, you can pretty much get one Z-600 HP or one of the Dell Precision T7500's. You don't have to bother with E-series quads, get a Xeon X series or, if you're really ready to spend a lot, a W. Jeter set in at least 12 GB of RAM. The value default 6 GB is far too little. 24GB is even better, but beyond those probably not improve things more far. Graphics will depend largely on your needs of Maya. AE itself is quite low density using OpenGL, so a low Quadro of range, or even a normal GeForce card or ATI will do.

  • Hard drive / SSD for After Effects optimization

    Hey everybody! Anyway, I wonder how to optimize my setup disk for After Effects. I don't know if the answer to this changes between AE versions we will just look at CS5.5 and CS6.

    My configuration:

    I7 - 3930 k OC had to 4.5 GHz

    48 GB of RAM (1866-999-24)

    EVGA GTX 770 4 GB classified

    120 GB SATA II SSD for drive C (operating system and programs, nothing else. Not even games)

    240GB SATA III SSD to scratch your files (50 GB reserved) and output

    500 GB (7200 RPM) HARD drive for media files (mainly AVCHD)

    3 TB external backup (not used when editing)

    My system already works pretty fast for what I do, but if the upgrade of my Sata II SSD or replace my HDD with a SSD would be me give another significant boost in speed, then I'm all for it. I doubt it would be nowhere near as well an increase in my last two upgrades well. The GTX 770 gave me a 3. 5 x for my projects 3D rendering speed boost from 16 GB to 48GB of RAM gave me 5.5 x ram preview speed boost. Regardless, I'm always looking for every ounce of power out my hardware because less time editing is more time with the family.

    Given my current setup. Should I change how I use my current readers or buy an another SSD to replace one of my existing records? I already intend to buy a Samsung 840 EVO 500 GB SSD, but if he won't really matter so I just pass on it.

    Oh, I also use first Pro CS5.5 frequently. Not sure if that changes anything.

    Thank you!

    Eric

    EDIT: Just found a link that helps the configuration of disk for Premiere Pro (below), but I'm still having a hard time finding how to optimize my disk configuration, as each reader is capable of a different speed. My fastest drive is drive C, the drive or the disk cache / scratch?

    https://forums.Adobe.com/thread/662972

    Put the cache of AE on the SSD drive folder. The media cache will follow other media applications cache settings. That's all you need to worry about really. The Directory Windows Temp Variable is of course the operating system if it's a SSD this way.

  • I can't believe I bought the new nVidia Zotac GeForce 960 AMP! for After Effects and it are not compatible! Is that what I can do to fix this?

    I was interested to get a subscription to the cloud, but I just found out that my GPU is not compatible with After Effects. It's a deal breaker. Can't believe that there isn't a patch or something for this graphics card excellent!

    The only feature in After Effects for which this card cannot be used is acceleration GPU of the obsolete plotted in 3D rendering engine Department. All the other features of After Effects GPU must serve very well as this card. Keep in mind that After Effects uses the GPU for very little, so the GPU doesn't matter much for After Effects, anyway.
