External Graphic Card "Aorus RTX 3080 Gaming Box"

Hello everyone! 

 

Today my IT dept. gave me an external Graphic Card as mentioned in the title. 

  • GIGABYTE WATERFORCE GeForce RTX 3080 10G which is Connected by  Thunderbold3 to my Laptop:
  • Which is a 2020 Lenovo ThinkPad P1
    • Prozessor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10750H CPU @ 2.60GHz 2.59 GHz
    • and RAM 48,0 GB 
    • NVIDIA T1000 

 

So while PSD & AI working perfect with this external Card, 

PPro & AE telling me that Cards doesn't have a supported Videodriver. 

 

I do have the latest NVIDIA Driver so there is notin i see i could do...  I mean.. even this Weak T1000 internal GPU does not have any issues.. and this card is also advertised with "For Creators" => Wether you are doing Video Editing, 3d Animation, Photography... 

 

Well.. Ok so far for the Marketing...
... how can i make PPro & AE "happy" - do i need some special Setup to enable it?  The only SETUP i see ist the general setting where CUDA is selected. 

 

My internal GeForce t1000 is sort of active. Should i deactivate it in the Device Management? 

 

Thanks,

Markus

You have a very old (sept 2021) video driver installed.

Go to Nvidia and install the latest studio driver and install manually.

You do not need the Experience, might want to uninstall.

Which driver (number?) is installed? Studio driver is preferred.
