What is a NVIDIA graphics card and why my After Effects requires one?

This is my first time to use After Effects and I don't know anything about. I opened it and something pops up saying 'Ray-tracing on GPUS requires a NVIDIA and CUDA 5.0 or later approved graphics card'. What it means? I'm worried create anything on after effects incase it cannot record because of this problem.

Your graphics card can't do ray traced 3D, so (ray traced 3D) it will be not very usable with large 3D scenes. Not a problem really unless what you AE for. You can still use the program. It's just a warning your graphics card does not minimum requirements for "ray 3D" features drawn, although it will still work, the CPU can do it too, but the classic rendering engine is generally fine for 3D in AE

  • I can't find a compatible Nvidia graphics card and monitor system of the body/Neo3D 3D

    Adobe first Pro CS5.5 / specification tecniques (http://www.adobe.com/products/premiere/tech-specs.html) lists the graphics cards that can be used to accelerate video editing.  I want to set up a system similar to what Dave Helmly is described (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aqi_qivG82c) with a computer 3D monitor and 3D TV secondary screen.  However, the 3D monitors that I saw as an Asus (http://usa.asus.com/Display/LCD_Monitors/VG236H/#overview) indicate graphics cards Nvidia that no overlap with those specified on the website of the organization.  Also, I found no towers locally that come with an appropriate Nvidia card.  I found some that have a free PCIe slot.  I need two cards in any case; However, the graphics card that comes with some of these machines specifies a maximum resolution of 2560 x 1600.

    Here are my questions:
    (1) what Nvidia graphics cards are both supported by the Organization and support of 3D monitors?  I'm looking on the bad feedback?  The Alienware site does not specify which graphics cards are compatible.
    (2) if the integrated video card has a maximum resolution of 2560 x 1600, does mean that if I want resolution 1920 x 1080 for each of the two eyes I need format (output HDMI to 3D TV) alternate-frame sequencing?

    I have not bought equipment yet, I am looking for options that work.  Thanks for your help.

    Hi Dennis, you need one of the Quadro graphics cards to do what you want (use the Nvidia 3D output). GTX cards will be released to a secondary 3D display, but only side by side and more to the title. I have a GTX 480 which I use with the body and Neo, main monitor is 2560 x 1600 (non - 3D), my secondary monitor is a Sony 32 "3D TV on which I discovered 3D since the timeline and FirstLight mode side by side. To be honest, I change and cut in 2d mode and really only use the monitor 3d for the color calibration (which is different for 3D 2D because of the need to reduce areas of contrast high which cause ghost images) and for the z depth of positioning for the composition and titles.

  • new nvidia graphics card and monitor driver choice?

    Given that I added 8 GB memory for my win 7 64 bit clean install on my m9040n HP Pavillion that uses a card Nvidia GeForce 8400 GS fly a HP w2408h monitor... and discovered that card has the lowest windows experience index side (processor 7.1; memory 7.1; Chart 3.5; graphics games 5.3; & main hard drive 5.8)... what card Nvidia will work in my system and give me a better score... plus drivers for my other than the win7 genefric monitor drivers... anyone?

    Hi barcode,

    Your screen has a native resolution of 1920 * 1200, so you should be able to get that out of your system.  If it's just appearing as a generic monitor in Device Manager, then I would say running updates of windows, where it should identify the monitor and download the correct definitions for it.  (Note that I didn't say 'pilot').

    In addition, you will be able to squeak on another point or two in the experience of the user, if you download the latest drivers from the NVIDIA site video card here. (because it was not listed on the support page from hp.com for your model of Windows 7 drivers).

  • Qosmio G30 - nVidia graphics card failure

    Hello

    as the title says my graphics card went kaput on Qosmio G30, who is 14 months old.

    I read in some places that could be the problem with the generation of nvidia graphics cards.
    Does anyone have any info on this subject because I have just quoted entre.6 and 1.8 k for what fixed it.
    This graphics card is separate from the motherboard or this prob will result in a new motherboard. If anyone has any info I would be very grateful, thank you, thomas

    PS for some reason that I could not connect with my username (yetchh) original so had to create a new account, have no idea why?

    Post edited by: yetchhh

    Hi Thomas

    That s a pity :(
    Especially the GPU (graphics chip) is attached to the motherboard. He welded s and replacement is not easy.

    There are several Lepidoptera, I called the ASP in my country because I needed some info on replacing the CPU on my old laptop and the guy said that the replacement of the CPU or GPU is not easy and is not possible.

    Well, what to say I think you should contact the authorized service provider in your country for replacement of equipment.

    But I wonder why you come in on costs?
    The laptop is about 14 months. If you have registered your laptop on the Toshiba page, you should get a 2 year warranty which should focus on the laptop.

    So all pieces of equipment should be replaced for free.

    Hello world

    I hope you can help me. Before a few weeks, I received my Toshiba Qosmio G10 return of aid, because the laptop no longer works. So I get it back with a new graphics card and a new PCB. With my laptop I have a CD called the update tool CD and a sheet of instructions, where it says to start with this tool CD-Rom update after you have installed the Windows with the reovery CD.

    So I did, but when I know the update tool CD to put in and I start with it, the computer installs something, but after a short then it is a message that it is a different model and that I have to put a button to close Notepad. So I did it, but Windows does not start.

    Why is it so? I had done everything that has been said on the instruction sheet.

    Please help me

  • What is the best graphic card for after effect

    Hello
    my graphics card is not supported for after effect. I'll buy a new one and I would like to know what is the best
    Thank you

    There is never a simple answer for such a question, but:
    List of cards supported for 3D Ray Tracing in AE, you will find it here: after effects configuration required for Mac OS and Windows

    More information on NVidia: Adobe after effects CC - 3D Graphics workflow | NVIDIA

    But to be honest, most of the nvidia graphics cards will work with AE - ELA easier - more Cuda cores better.
    But before you spend a lot of money for the high GPU know AE uses mainly from CPU to GPU rendering is not so important. It uses the GPU only for RayTracing (obsolete)

    and some third-party plug-ins.
