There is no GPU performance settings in Illustrator CC?

[nlabjs]

Hey,

I  would like to enable GPU perfomance in my Illustrator CC, but it is not in the settings( Edit->Preferences), although it appears in photoshop.

Where is it? How can I find t?

I have windows 10 on my pc, AMD Radeon R5 Graphics and R7 M265 drivers.

Which CC is it?

I think 2013.

In that case you need to update.

Once you've updated your Illustrator to the latest version and have enabled GPU performance its is possible that you may run into the problem that many people have reported. If you start to see that your Illustrator vector art has ragged edges to it then you will know that your computer does not have a video card that fully supports it. It may only require updating the video card but it also could turn out to be more trouble than it's worth.

Hi nlabjs,

As Monika suggested, you need to upgrade to a newer version of Illustrator to be able to use GPU feature. It was introduced in the 2014 release of Illustrator CC for computers running Windows with select, compatible, NVIDIA graphics processors. For the 2015 release of Illustrator CC, GPU Performance is available for both Mac OS and Windows, and it works with various GPUs.

Here's an article with more details: GPU Performance
