After Effects Lagging when moving objects around

[robw38316308]

I open up After Effects like normal and can animate etc also rendering fine.

Its frustrating when i move shapes around the screen it lags alot.

Is this to do with the AMD 9070 not optimised for it yet?

I change the GPU Sniffer to GPU Sniffer 123 and it works like butter.

Pc specs:

Amd Ryzen 5 7600x

32gb Ram 6000mhz

m.2 7000mbs

Amd 9070

850w power

Is there another solution this weird laggy bug without changing the GPU Sniffer name?

There is an issue in 25.2.2 with AMD cards that will be fixed in 25.3 when that releases. You can validate that by installing the current AE Beta which you can download via Creative Cloud Desktop.

Hi @kubajj,

Thank you for reporting this issue. We've identified this as a problem for AMD GPUs and a fix is available in the latest Beta builds of After Effects. If you can, please download the latest Beta build of After Effects and let us know if you see the problem resolved.

I'll be merging this post with the existing thread on this issue so that you'll be informed when the fix is available in the general release version.

Hello John @JohnColombo does the beta version also fix the problem for Nvidia users? I have nvidia gpu but I also have lagging and i have to use gpusniffer rename trick to make the program run smoothly.

The bug did not impact NVIDIA workflows and would come into play only if OpenCL was being used as the renderer.

To check which renderer is being used by your project, go to File->Project Settings.

For NVIDIA cards, we use Mercury GPU Acceleration (CUDA) should be used.

If CUDA is already selected (even if it is greyed out), you might be encountering a different bug which we can explore

If CUDA is not selected but is available in the drop down menu, try switching to it and see if the problem goes away.

Lastly, if CUDA is not even being presented with OpenCL or Software is being shown, indicates your NVIDIA card is being rejected, which will require further investigation as well

Looking to hear back from you

I updated AE and set the renderer back to CUDA and the issue seems to be fixed now. Thanks
