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

[Kadabriel]

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

Processor	1.6 GHz Intel Core i5
RAM	8 GB
Hard Drive	Flash Memory Solid State
Graphics Coprocessor	NVIDIA Geforce MX150
Chipset Brand	NVIDIA
Card Description	Dedicated
Graphics Card Ram Size	2 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!

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?

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
