Depending on the number of GPU-accelerated effects you use, a higher-end GPU can give you a nice performance boost in Premiere Pro. But is it better to go with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX video card, or one of AMD’s Radeon GPUs?
Premiere Pro 14.2 H.264 and H.265 Hardware Encoding Performance
In the 14.2 version of Premiere Pro, Adobe has added support for GPU-based H264/H.265 (HEVC) hardware encoding with both NVIDIA and AMD GPUs. How well does this feature work, and how much faster is it than the previous hardware encoding that utilized Intel Quicksync?
Inventor 2020 GPU Performance
We put several Quadro video cards to the test in Autodesk Inventor 2020.2, using Inventor Bench, to see if there is a benefit to having a higher performance GPU in this application.
Revit 2020 GPU Performance
We put several Quadro video cards to the test in Autodesk Revit 2020.2, using RFO Benchmark, to see if there is a benefit to having a higher performance GPU in this application.
Premiere Pro (BETA) – H.264 NVIDIA Hardware Encoding Performance
In the 14.2 Beta for Premiere Pro, Adobe has added support for H264/HEVC hardware encoding with both NVIDIA and AMD GPUs. How well does this feature work, and is it any faster than the existing implementation using Intel Quicksync?
SOLIDWORKS 2020 SP1 GPU Performance
With the recent release of SOLIDWORKS 2020’s first service pack, we thought it would be a good time to do a roundup of NVIDIA Quadro video card performance with regards to modeling in SOLIDWORKS.
DaVinci Resolve Studio 16.1.2 Update – RED SDK improvements
The latest version of DaVinci Resolve (16.1.2) includes an update to the latest RED SDK which is supposed to greatly improve performance when working with R3D files in DaVinci Resolve. But exactly how much of an impact does this make in the real world? (Hint: it is a lot!)
Premiere Pro GPU Roundup: NVIDIA SUPER vs AMD RX 5700 XT
While the CPU still does most of the heavy lifting, depending on how many accelerated effects you use, having a more powerful GPU can sometimes make a significant impact on performance. With both AMD and NVIDIA recently launching a number of new video cards, it is time to once again see how different GPU models perform in Premiere Pro.
DaVinci Resolve GPU Roundup: NVIDIA SUPER vs AMD RX 5700 XT
More than any other NLE, having a fast GPU (or multiple GPUs) is incredibly important in DaVinci Resolve. With both AMD and NVIDIA recently launching a number of new video cards, it is time to once again see what the best GPU is for Resolve.
V-Ray Next Multi-GPU Performance Scaling
One of the big advantages of GPU-based rendering is that you can easily put multiple video cards inside a single workstation. How much benefit does each additional card provide for V-Ray Next, though? We put four GeForce RTX 2080 Ti video cards to the test to find out!
