Problem with CUDA Nvidea RTX2080ti & Premiere 2020

Hi, I'm running a new PC with following Specs

OS: Windows 10 Pro, 64 Bit

CPU: Intel Core i9-9900K, 8x 3600 MHz

Graphics: ASUS GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, ASUS DUAL-RTX2080TI-11G, 11 GB GDDR6

MB: ASUS ROG STRIX Z390-F GAMING

RAM: 32 GB DDR4-RAM, Dual Channel (2x 16 GB), 3200 MHz,

SSD: 1000 GB M.2 PCIe SSD Samsung 970 Evo Plus

Since the first day I'tryed to get the CUDA accerleration to work. 

The graphic card is said to be supported, but no success, even not with the latets driver of nvidea (445.48) Sometimes for short sequenses it runs , mostly not. Error: Adobe Player "xy" or CUDA not supported. I'm really fed up, cause it takes me like 12 hours to render a n 8 Minute 4K sequence. when I switch to to DaVinci Resole 20 minutes. Anybody any idea?

Now I switched to 442.92 driver, but tehre's definetly no CUDA acceleration at all (error as before: low level exeption Adobe Pyaer, no CUDA) . It runs faster, yes, but CPU sometimes goes up to 100 %, which might become a cooling problem.

You have a rig way over-built for GPU, way under-built for RAM, which I don't quite get. Huh. Only 4GB of RAM per core, that's quite a limiter right there. Yea, only 8 cores, but at 3.6Mhz for base speed they're decently fast too.

 

Are the two GPU's in SLI mode, any chance? That definitely would cause an issue in Premiere.

 

12 hours to render an 8 minute 4k sequence ... what's the media? What effects applied?

 

Those are both crucial questions, as Premiere doesn't currently use the GPU for basic encoding, that's  a CPU task, and with your low amount of RAM, only 4GB/core, your rig cripples your CPU.

 

My other curiousity is the use of only one drive. M.2's of course are fast, but when running the OS, programs, cache, Premiere, and media from one drive while writing media to that same drive, that's a load that would be far better handled if split between two or three additional drives.

The OP system is a perefect build. The GPU, CPU and RAM are just fine. If you want proof check out link. My RTX 2070 is the weakest link.

I never said the OP had a 12-core machine. In two separate posts I mentioned his as an 8-core machine. And I still look at the OP's comment, and it still looks like he's listing this as two GPU's to me ...

 

Graphics: ASUS GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, ASUS DUAL-RTX2080TI-11G, 11 GB GDDR6

 

As that looks to me like an RTX2080TI, and a dual RTX2080Ti-11G, which could easily be mistaken. I'd prefer clarity from the OP.

 

I've got the laptop-version 2080 in my laptop, which isn't as powerful as the full 2080 in a desktop of course. I've got a 1060-6GB in my desktop, with as noted 32GB of RAM. And for my needs, that isn't enough anymore ... the 6-core CPU, the 32GB of RAM, and the 1060. I've been hoping to replace that over the winter, but we're still waiting a bit longer before pulling the purchase.

 

And I look at the rigs some of my colorist friends are running, and think ... wow, that would be nice ... sigh.

Neil,
An RTX 2080 Ti and i9 9900K is not top of the line but it works for me. I don't doubt you have friends who have high performance computers. That being said could you show us what you are editing that would require 128 GB of RAM?

All of the 445.xx drivers have known issues with Premiere Pro. Every single one of them. And that's because there are absolutely no Studio Driver at all whatsoever in that GeForce driver branch; only Game Ready drivers were ever released in the 445.xx series so far. None of the newest Game Ready drivers were ever tested with content creation apps at all. That completely mirrors the situation with Quadro drivers, where no 445.xx driver version has been released yet. The latest Studio Driver version for GeForce GPUs currently stands at version 442.92.
