Nvidia Quadro K2200 4GB Premier Pro Compatibility 2022

What's Premier Pros current compatibility with the Quadro K2200? I'm cheap and I want to keep my pennys. I am still using an old HPE-170t with a Intel Core i7 860 & NVIDIA GeForce GT 440 for my video and photo work.

There is only one downfall to this practice which is a slowdown that I experience when rendering footage.

 

I am considering getting a old workstation to use for my vidoe projects so that I can continue whatever other work I have on my HPE-170t while I wait for the video to render.

This is the build I'm looking at:

HP Z620

Processors:2x (2.6 GHz) 8-Core Intel Xeon E5-2650 v2 Processor 

Memory (RAM):32GB (4x8) DDR3 PC3 Memory 

Graphics Card:Nvidia Quadro K2200 4GB GDDR5

 

I need to keep costs down as much as possible so if theres anyone willing to throw their time in on any reccomendations I would be very appreciatve. I am looking this HP Z from pcserverandparts.com

These are the other graphics card options they offer with this HP Z


Nvidia Quadro NVS 300 512MB GDDR3
Nvidia NVS 310 512MB DDR3
Nvidia Quadro 2000 1GB GDDR5

    I am sorry to tell you this, but all of the "affordable" GPUs that you're considering are either obsolete or nearly obsolete. You see, the K2200 is based on the first-generation Maxwell GPU that made its debut in the GeForce GTX 750 and 750 Ti GPUs in early 2014. In other words, you picked a GPU that's already seven years old at this point, and whose CUDA support has been depreciated since the 450-series drivers (Premiere Pro 2022 requires a 470-series or newer driver in order to run properly).

     

    And unfortunately, most of the other GPUs that are offered on that list are also obsolete (that means no longer supported anymore by Nvidia itself outside of archived old driver versions).

     

    Of the GPUs listed, the only ones that will continue to be supported and receive improvements in the CUDA are:

     

    • Nvidia Quadro M2000 4GB GDDR5
    • Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB GDDR5
    • Nvidia Quadro M4000 8GB GDDR5
    • Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 6GB GDDR5
    • Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Ti 6GB GDDR6
    • Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 8GB GDDR5X
    • Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 8GB GDDR6

     

    I excluded the Nvidia GeForce GT 1030 2GB GDDR5 from this list as it does not have a hardware H.264 or HEVC decoder or encoder at all, and cannot use Studio Drivers at all (only the Game Ready drivers are compatible with that GPU).

     

    And most of the K-series Quadros will have their driver support completely discontinued on July 31 of this year. The non-lettered Quadros already went EOSL three-and-a-half years ago.

     

    And all three of the NVS GPUs are obsolete. Both the NVS 300 and NVS 310 are now long EOSL'd (their very last released driver versions dated from 2016 and 2018, respectively) while the NVS 510 follows the exact same EOSL date as most of the K-series Quadro GPUs (ending this coming July 31).

      RjL190365,

      Thank you for the reply and the valubal advice! I believe I will just go with that Nvidia Quadro M2000 and just take my time. I've got more time than money anyhow. If this wedding season is as good as I anticipate I can upgrade to that new HP Z4 G4. If it gets me by another season or two I that will be spectacular.

      Z620 VS HPE 170-t

      I recently dove in and purchased the Z620 I was considering and am happy to report it was the right decision for us at this time. All around I am experiencing at least double the performance in comparison to my HPE 170-t.  Render speeds have been 3 X faster with the Z620 completing the same renders that took 24 minutes in only 8 minutes. I can open Premier Pro without any error, edit and scrub through video without delay and exports through Media Encoder are working flawlessly utilizing 100% of the Intel processor and 100% copy of the Nvidia m2000. File transfer speeds have also at least tripled ranging from 90MB/s via 3.0 USB CF card reader (previously 30MB/s) to 150MB/s between HDD (previously 30MB/s) which is 5x faster. I recognize that this isn’t the best nor a permeant solution, but the benefits are certainly undeniable. PC Server and Parts was the most affordable route I could find. I highly reccomend them.

      I wanted to make sure to post this report just in case there is someone in the same shoes I am.
