NVIDIA GeForce 210 - Unsupported video driver

I'm using Adobe Premiere Pro CC (Version: 14.0.0 [Build 572]) and i have installed GeForce 210 driver aswell. I'm using the latest driver released by Nvidia.

 

The problem doesn't work in Photoshop. But it works on Premiere Pro, After Effects softwares..

 

May i know the root of this issue?

I'm very sorry to say this, but that GPU is now completely obsolete. NVIDIA had EOL'd that GPU and all other Tesla-architecture (1st-Generation CUDA) GPUs way back in 2015, with the last driver release dating all the way back to December 2016. However, Premiere Pro 2020 now REQUIRES a driver version released from mid-2019 onwards just to even be supported. That later driver release is COMPLETELY incompatible with GPU hardware released prior to 2012.

 

In addition, that GeForce 210 is a total waste of money, even when it was new: It has only 16 CUDA cores, and a memory throughput of only 12 GB/s. That's slower than even most systems' main RAM!

Premiere now requires CUDA version 9.2 support. 

I suggest you pick up an RTX 2060 or 2060 Super on Cyber Monday and give the old GeForce 210 a retirement.

would this be my problem trying to use NVIDIA NVS 310 ?

Yes, it would still be. Fermi driver support had already ended way back in 2018.
