I just installed PrE-2021 and, before I actually start working, I "clicked around" to configure the way I want

Switch to Expert mode to enter my custom settings for editing (one time operation)
-Click Edit-Project Settings-General
--the default is 1920x1080 with no way to select a different default
--OK, I've read in a tutorial that PrE will auto-adjust to my 1280x720 30fps video
-Click Edit-Preferences-General
--GTX750 is supported (per requirements page) but my GTX760 is not
--I'm going to have to find out if that is due to my old(er) 432.00 driver

--I've downloaded the latest 457.30 driver, and will make a backup before installing

--nVidia Driver Downloads http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us

--In Media I changed the location to my temp drive, E:\Adobe
--In ScratchDisks I changed each location to my temp drive, E:\Adobe
-I do not find a way to change the location of the project file to my temp drive
--seems to be in C:\Users\jtsmi_000\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Premiere Elements\19.0
--where jtsmi_000 is MY Windows user identity, so YOUR file path will be different
--I'll verify that location when I actually create a test project

So... now to make a backup and then install the new nVidia driver and open PrE-2021 again to find out if will let me use GPU acceleration after the driver update

Correct answer Ann Bens

As I said before if its not on the list its not supported.

You will have to wait until it has been tested and added to the list.

John,

I think you are out of luck with GPU use. I am. I too have filled out the Beta form. I don't know what the issues are, but product releases are annual, so I don't know how or if GPUs are added. That said, GPU use is limited to "smoothing" timeline editing. It does nothing for output rendering. I edit 4K on i7 laptop with an SSD and never had trouble with the timeline being smooth.

Don't waste too much time with Project Settings. If you put a primary clip on the timeline before anything else, it will get it right. You can then move the clip, add more clips, and it will remain right.

The Media setting is only for cache files. It can self clean. I keep it on my fastest SSD. For me that is C:\.

To control the location of the project files, do a new project before you do anything else. A screen shows up where you can direct the path, pick a name and even force project settings.

Did I miss anything?

Updated nVidia driver to latest 457.30 and GTX760 is still not supported for GPU acceleration

Now I wait to see if Adobe will contact me as a result of filling out the Beta contact form

I "could" buy the supported https://www.newegg.com/asus-geforce-rtx-2060-ph-rtx2060-6g/p/N82E16814126287 but I really don't want to spend $315 if there is a way for Adobe to add my card (and tell me how to change "whatever" to make the program use the card for GPU acceleration)
