  1. I meant the project settings. Set it to Mercury Software only. mercury.png
  2. I don't know what you might mean by "performance issues" and "display 100%". Some people expect realtime playback from AE and that's not how AE works, so, if that's the case, there is nothing you can do that will solve that "performance issue", but if you are using effects that can be accelerated by the GPU and it goes significantly faster after you upgrade, yes it will.

It means what it says. Yes, update your graphics drivers and configure them suitably.

If I recall correctly, GPUs as old as yours can't run new enough drivers to be compatible with AE's GPU acceleration. I think you need the 700 series or later. I would suggest getting the newest series your motherboard is compatible with.

 

Note that this message you're seeing won't really cause any major issues - as long as you make sure your projects are set to use Software in the Mercury area and not hardware.

Thanks a lot for kind your respond.

I have inqueries:

1- I didn't understand what you mention about "Mercury area and not Hardware". what is Mercury area?

2- Before I upgrade my GPU to a new one I want to make sure does upgrading my GPU will fix all of the performance issues & display 100%. or still there will be some more issues?

 

3- Is this GPU upgrade will also solve Premier & all GPU based Adobe APPs if there is a such performance issue with them?

  3. GPUs are not magic bullets that solve problems. Sometimes the problem is the GPU and, with one as old as yours, it's a likely suspect, but it might not be the wholeissue. With a GPU that old, you probably have other, equally old components. Maybe it's time for a whole new machine. But maybe changing up the GPU will solve some things. What's the newest GPU that your motherboard can handle? I was upgrading one of my machines in the freelance studio that was pretty old and the newest GPUs it could take were the 700 series and that's...four generations old now!
