Webinar: How To Choose The Right Hardware For After Effects
In this 45 minute webinar, Matt Bach will go over all the individual parts that go into a workstation, explaining what each does and how After Effects uses them. We will help you separate fact from fiction and make you aware of “marketing buzzwords” that are either misleading or flat-out lies.
Lightroom Classic CPU Roundup: AMD Ryzen 3rd Gen, AMD Threadripper 2, Intel 9th Gen, Intel X-series
Lightroom Classic has changed dramatically over the last few years, with improved multithreading support and the recent addition of GPU acceleration. But exactly how much of a difference is there between the latest processors from both Intel and AMD? Does the higher core count on the new Ryzen CPUs make a difference?
Webinar: The State of GPU Rendering in 2019
In this 40 minute webinar, William George will give an overview of where GPU-based rendering engines are at, where they are going, and what hardware will work best with them. OctaneRender, Redshift, and V-Ray Next will be used as primary examples, with some mention of other engines as well. There will be a brief Q&A time at the end.
Workstation Setup for Docker with the New NVIDIA Container Toolkit (nvidia-docker2 is deprecated)
It’s time for a “Docker with NVIDIA GPU support” update. This post will guide you through a useful Workstation setup (including User-name-spaces and performance tuning) with the new versions of Docker and the NVIDIA GPU container toolkit.
Webinar: How To Choose The Right Hardware For DaVinci Resolve
In this 45 minute webinar, Matt Bach will go over all the individual parts that go into a workstation, explaining what each does and how DaVinci Resolve uses them. We will help you separate fact from fiction and make you aware of “marketing buzzwords” that are either misleading or flat-out lies.
SOLIDWORKS 2019 SP3: AMD Ryzen 3 vs Intel 9th Gen Core
AMD recently launched an updated generation of their mainstream Ryzen processors, with increases to both core count and clock speed / per-core performance. We’ve already tested these chips on a wide range of applications, and now it is time to look at how they handle a professional engineering program: SOLIDWORKS.
Does PCIe Gen4 improve GPU performance in video editing apps?
PCIe Gen4 is finally here with twice the theoretical bandwidth of PCIe Gen3. But with the current Gen4 motherboards and video cards, does the extra bandwidth actually matter for video editing applications like Premiere Pro, After Effects, and DaVinci Resolve?
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.
