What can i do to Improve rendering time (components/settings i need) Quadro k5000

First of all, I want to say, you guys are awesome, because of people like you that help out others without them doing shit for you.

Thank you for existing!

And now I am asking for your help!

Yesterday I bought the Quadro k5000 in a hope improve my rendering time because I had the "Radeon 7900series" rendering it is barely going faster

My new(pre-owned) GPU is performing: at 24-29% on userbenchmark (is this normal)?

Can do something to its settings for improving it for rendering and 3d editing.

My workstation:

UserBenchmarks: Game 32%, Desk 62%, Work 46%

CPU: Intel Core i7-3820 3.6 GHz - 67%

GPU: Nvidia Quadro K5000 - 26.9%

SSD: OCZ Agility 3 120GB - 39.5% ssd

SSD: Samsung 750 EVO 250GB - 72.2% ssd

HDD: Samsung Spinpoint F3 2TB - 49%

HDD: WD Blue 320GB (2007) - 58.5%

RAM: Kingston HyperX DDR3 1866 C9 8x4GB - 80.8% 32GB

MBD: Asus P9X79

Rendering is up to 20hr

I am rendering to the "OCZ Agility 3 120GB" and tried to change from .AVI to .QT

My laptop: Acer Aspire 5

Processor1.6 GHz Intel Core i5
RAM8 GB
Hard DriveFlash Memory Solid State
Graphics CoprocessorNVIDIA Geforce MX150
Chipset BrandNVIDIA
Card DescriptionDedicated
Graphics Card Ram Size2 GB

Rendering on this is so slow it almost make time go backward, but that is not a priority.

I have been stalking you guy's on the forums, but I do not know about half the things you are talking about.

I don't know shit about codecs and formats. just that I want to work in 1080 if possible in 3d on 5min to 1hr movies for youtube.

Can someone give me a recipe to decrease rendering time to half

First: things I can try?
Second: Things I need to buy?

Try to explain it like you would do to an embryo.

- Thanks and have a fantastic day!

Hi

For After Effects, the GPU is not used much in rendering. Most processes are CPU bound so a good way to speed up your renders is to use faster processors.

Another way is to use SSDs for your cache. writing and reading to cache is a major function of AE so a fast drive like an SSD gives you some nice gains.

Another ways is to utilize a third party plug in to open instances of AE to render multiple sections at once. I use RenderGarden and it works great! I see gains of over 500% when I can spread the render workload over multiple CPUs using RenderGarden.

Hope this helps,

Steve

The GTX GPUs provide more horsepower for AE use than the Quadro's. The GPU is only used for AE's UI and Transforms and a relatively small number of effects/plugins. For faster rendering, a faster processor, more RAM, faster disks (especially if your render has to pick up a lot of footage from the disks) are the things you should be looking at.

On the workflow front, look at pre-rendering precomps and groups of layers (if these can't be pre-composed). Occasionally, I find faster render times when I clear the cache and memory prior to hitting the render button.

    Can i put a GTX in Sli with my quadro?

    how/where do i clear my chase?

    And why is the rendering only using 30% of my memory and CPU?
