PhotoScan makes use of the video cards in a computer to assist with the computation of certain steps. As such, the model of video card used can have an impact on the amount of time those steps take. In this article, we take a look at the GeForce RTX 2000-series – based on NVIDIA’s Turing GPU architecture – to see how they compare to each other.
Agisoft PhotoScan 1.4.1 NVIDIA GeForce vs AMD Radeon Vega
PhotoScan makes use of the video cards in a computer to assist with the computation of certain steps. As such, the model of video card used can have an impact on the amount of time those steps take. In this article, we take a look at AMD’s Radeon line – including the Vega 64 and 56 – and see how they stack up to NVIDIA’s GeForce 1000-series.
Agisoft PhotoScan 1.4.1 – CPU and GPU Preferences
PhotoScan makes use of both the CPU and GPUs (video cards) in a computer, during different steps of the photogrammetry workflow. One of the configuration options within this program also allows the CPU to be utilized during steps that are primarily performed on the GPU – and it is enabled by default. However, we have found in our testing that this option usually hampers performance more than it helps!
Agisoft PhotoScan 1.4.1 – Multi GPU Scaling
PhotoScan makes use of the video cards in a computer to assist with the computation of certain steps. As such, both the model of video card used and the number of GPUs present in a system can have an impact on the amount of time those steps take. In this article, we take a look at how multiple GeForce GTX 1080 Ti cards scale in performance across a few different CPU platforms.
Agisoft PhotoScan 1.4.1 – GeForce GPU Comparison
PhotoScan makes use of the video cards in a computer to assist with the computation of certain steps. As such, the model of video card used can have an impact on the amount of time those steps take. In this article, we take a look at the GeForce 1000-series – based on NVIDIA’s Pascal GPU architecture – to see how they compare to each other.
Agisoft PhotoScan 1.4.1 – PCI Express Scaling
PhotoScan makes use of the video cards in a computer to assist with the computation of certain steps. The performance of an individual video card, or GPU, is known to impact the processing speed – but what about the connection between the video card and the rest of the computer? This interconnect is called PCI Express and comes in a variety of speeds. In this article, we will look at how PhotoScan performance scales across PCI-E 3.0 x4, x8, and x16.
