Running a Intel Mac on 10.74 - CS6
I have two video cards running three Dell Monitors.
The ATI 5770 (runs the 24") is on the 16 lane PCI slot and the older Nvidea 8800 GT (running two Dell 19") is on the 8 lane slot.
But photoshop chooses the slower card on the slower lane.
It is taking 6 - 7 hours to render 2 - 6 minute 1080p videos down to 720p. Granted there are about 10 - 15 layers and a bunch of editing... but when I look at the performance monitor during rendering the intire resources used by my computer is around 45% - 50% for memory, processor, and little to no GPU is this normal?
It just seems really wierd to me. I have read the Adobe blog and watched the Learning Videos on the website on how to adjust the performance settings and have 90% of the RAM alocated to Photoshop.

For some reason I cannot choose between Video Timeline & Frame Animation in the Timeline window. I do not know why, I've looked in the Timeline panel options, still nothing.
Photoshop CS6 says it has detected an error in the graphice driver, but I can't find any errors. I have reinstalled several versions of the display driver--no change. The graphics card is NVIDIA GTX 550Ti.

' when attempting to use a filter/feature which requires HW acceleration. I have a supported graphics card, Radeon 6870, Windows7 64 bit, 8GB Ram. I've tried all 3 Advanced Settings.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI just got a fresh upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 8 Pro (not beta) but then I can't use Photoshop that well. In the Preferences > Performance, I can't tick "Use Graphics Processor". I have an ATI graphics card and yep, I've already tried upgrading/reinstalling my graphics driver, even installing old ones -- and still, this doesn't solve my problem (even in its control panel, I can't seem to see the settings of the graphics card!)

View 6 Replies View RelatedJust got one of the brand-new 27 inch iMacs a few days ago, one with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX (2GB GDDR5) video card.
I'm using Photoshop CS6.
Every time I enable Photoshop to take advantage of the video card for additional memory - Preferences > Performance > Graphics Processor Settings - I run into constant problems.
I'm talking about the "colored spinning wheel" icon appearing just about every 30 seconds and holding me up for about just about the same period of time.
Turning off the use of the video card solves the problem every time. No "colored spinning wheel" icon appearing - ever.
I got the larger video card hoping to take advantage of as much available memory as possible; unfortunately, it looks like there seems to be a problem with the interaction between Photoshop CS6 and the video card's driver.
I've got all the latest updates for both the Mac OS and Photoshop.
I recently installed Photoshop CS6 and had no problem what so ever the first week. to an incident I removed Photoshop and reinstalled it. Now I'm having problem with GPU acceleration.
My computer has 2 graphics cards, GeForce GTX 460(Primary screen & projector) and GeForce 210(Secondary screen). Photoshop detects my GTX460 and uses it. But when I move Photoshop to my secondary screen I can't see any documents.
It's just a gray screen.
I had Photoshop CS5.5 installed before and had no problem using my secondary screen, installed PS CS 6 pararell with PS CS 5.5 and had no problem. Then I removed PS CS 5.5, still no problem.Reinstalled PS CS 6 and it doesn't work.
It obiusly worked a few days ago with this set up, and now it doesn't. also ad that unchecking Use graphics processor fixing the problem. But I wanna have all the nice GPU features.
I have a Macbook Pro running Mountain Lion. My Graphis Processor is a nVidia GeForce 8600 M GT. Do I need a driver or plug in to enable open GL inPS CS6.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been using the oil paint filter for about a year. But, I tried to use it today and got the following error:This feature requires graphics processor acceleration. Please check the Performance Preferences and verify that "Use Graphics Processor" is enabled.
I went to Photoshop Preferences to enable the Graphics Processor but the option is grayed out and won't let me check the box to enable.
Just wondering about the option for 30 bit Display in Advanced Graphics Processor Settings, Should I enable this option, my monitor is a Dell P2210 and what exactly will this do?
Here's a screenshot of what I talking about, I have a GeForce GTX660 2GB Graphics Card.
In Photoshop CS6 the layers are not displayed at all if using Nivdia Geforce drivers 306.02 in Windows 8 64-bit. If I revert back to Nvidia Geforce drivers 304.79 (Beta) - it works fine - the layers are now displayed.
The laptop system uses Nividia Optimus hybrid graphics and Photoshop has been setup using the defaults (PS profile from Nvidia) to use the Nvidia card as High Performance Graphics. Photoshop hardware acceleration does not crash with either driver set - except since 304.79 Beta the layers are not displayed. So something has changed with Nvidia after the 304.79 Beta release, i.e. a bug - or Adobe has a bug in its implementation for DirectX with hard acceleration.
One of my main complaints with Lightroom 4 is that I can't seem to export video at a custom resolution or bitrate (like dvd size for instance). Am I missing something, or is this really not possible? I hate having to use Handbrake to archive my videos - I wish I could just do it all in Lightroom. I'm using Lightroom 4.3

which video cards/technology on Video cards are best for photoshop.
View 5 Replies View RelatedCurrently my display card is a NVIDIA Quadro FX 500/600 PCI. One of the reasons I chose this card is it supprted dual montors. Now that I have upgraded to CS4 Extended I need to upgrade my display card.
When I went to Adobe's List of tested graphics display cards for Photoshop CS4 and seen such a long list of cards for Windows.I thought I would come here and ask if any body else has upgraded theirs. I would perfere to go with a nVidia card. Do any of these cards support dual monitors? Or how can I keep using my two montors?
I have a Dell Dimension 4600i with the stock Intel(R) 82865G Graphics Controller, and 4 gig of ram. I use Photoshop CS3 for my digital scrapbook business, working with image files that are often almost a gig. Besides tweeking PS and XP to get the fastest performance I'm thinking I probably need a beefier video card. I've read decent reviews for the GeForce 7600GT and other video cards but these are aimed at gamers. The sales rep at Dell seemed to think that their top video card wouldn't be that much better for Photoshop work.
Are there video cards out there that would speed up PS? Is it a waste of money getting a card designed for gamers?
I'm having a laptop built mainly to quick edit/cut photoshop files. They (pc club)recommend a nvidia 8600gt 512 card. Will this work well for photoshop editing. I still use my desktop for the main photoshop work.
The system I'm looking at is:
Window XP home, nvidia 8600gt go 512mb graphics, intel core 2 duo 2.4ghz, 2gb ram, 200gb sata 7200rpm drive, 802.11n wifi, and 10/100/1000 network card.
I'm a landscape photographer and have used photoshop for several years...my current version is cs1....my system crashed and now in the process of having a new system built.....I will upgrade to cs4...now this is my question what video card do I need?
View 2 Replies View Relatedwhat the Best video card to speed up photoshop is? I don't use this machine for any 3D (gaming or otherwise) I just want to speed up the filters and file handling of photoshop. The computer has an 8X AGP port , 1GB RAM , 2.0GHZ Athlon cpu.
I currently have an matrox g450 vid card.
How can I get both the 32 and 64 bit versions of CS6 to detect my graphic processor (AMD Radeon HD7700) for GPU usage in Win 7 ? Cuiurently, it is only seen in 64 bit.
View 19 Replies View RelatedI upgraded to CS6 and I've been told that my current video card will not support the 3D feature. I also noticed considerable lag with modifying text and using brushes. I also noticed little quirks like when masking, I could mask but it won't allow me to add back. I have to close out of PS6 and reopen...I'm assuming this is also a video card issue.

I have problem with rn Adobe Photoshop CS6 Exteneded in virtual environment. I have VDI on Remote Desktop Services. There is RemoteFX 3D video card on virtual mchines, but Photoshop doesn't recognize this card. How can I enable GPU features in Photoshop with this configuration?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have just unstakked CS4, but my video cardNividia 7300 GT ONLY HAS 250 mb OF MEMORY. There are some functions of GL functions (3D) that cannot be used. Also, occasionally Photoshop shuts off the enhanced GPU functions and most important, even when it is in use there is NOT the smooth zooming from increasing or decreasing the size of the image.
I realize I should be using 512 MB on a video card. Adobe has a listing of cards that work with this new function but their prices anfd functions vary greatly. I will NOT be using 3D functions for graphics and use the computer for gaming. This is mainly for the new advanced functions in Photoshop.
I know I need 512 MB and open GL 2.0, but not the most advanced and expensive card. Any choices between nividia or ATI for CS4
I switched to CS4. Frequent apparent redraws leave remnants on screen, panels move back and forth, etc.
I have a Dell Precision 490 with 4gb ram and a nVidia Quadra fx 550 with 128 megs of ram. Open GL is enabled. I have loaded all the latest nVidia drivers.
If this sounds like a video card problem, can anyone recommend a good, not too expensive card? I don't play any games, just use the machine for PS. ID and Flash mostly.
I am preparing to replace my current video card (nVidia GT7600) with one more compatible with CS4 (Vista- single display). Is there a recommended list from Adobe (or from this forum) that is suitable and essentially trouble free. My use is primarily photographic enhancement so a high end 3D card is not necessary.
View 32 Replies View RelatedI have updated my ATI FireGL V3100 with the latest ATI drivers (Windows XP
sp3 with 4GB RAM).
However, when I enable GNU in CS4 all of the images are garbled.
Anyway to fix this other than turning off OpenGL?
If I need to get a new video card to make this work, which is the most
stable card having the fewest bugs? I'd really like to get this to work.
