GTX 970 and Premiere Pro

[DV2FOX]

Sure,it says Unsupported,but i have a doubt because i'm scared as *BEEEP!* now that i've seen this topic i've been looking for

I own a GTX 660 Ti OC 2GB and it works perfectly with my Premiere Pro CC 2014. However,i was about to buy a GIGABYTE Nvidia GTX 970 until i tought: "Will it work with my Premiere Pro CC 2014?..Better ask".. Been asking and nobody replied to me.

Because i don't want to buy a card that'll NOT WORK AT ALL with my CC 2014!

In other works: If i buy a GTX 970, will it work with Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014 COMPLETELY/FULL POWER, supported or not??

Please reply ASAP!!!

Thanks in advance

DV

They will both work in a Windows system (can't say for others) but you'd be cleaner to just install a single at a time. It's for other things like heat dissipation that I say that. The card you're not using can simply be disabled in device manager. You actually don't even need to but it's recommended. Otherwise it's like having multiple pairs of headphones or any other part. Consider that if you have an Intel i-series you already have an Intel HD video card and I'd wager 99% your motherboard has an audio card and ethernet adaptor built-in but many enthusiasts (gamers/media professionals) replace these for better hardware. Multiple pieces of any hardware are possible, just disable what you don't need.

Thank you for this.

After posting I wanted to erase it as the idea of two different GPUs in one enclosure seemed unworkable

Like you, my reason for upgrading was primarily to allow for three monitors to be connected one of which requires a Display port.

Due to Bill's observation that 30 bit output is not available with these cards, I'm now revisiting my strategy...

Cheers

I just started getting this error after updating my Nvidia drivers.  However if I hit ignore, it still works fine.

[DV2FOX]

Hopefully there's a fix soon or later so it won't show up for Newcomers ^^;;;....

[damix21]

Any solution for this?

I tried to use nvenc export on AME CC 2014.2 and AME CC 2015 but the problem continues

[davidpayne1981]

I currently have a 660ti in my machine (editing with cc 2014) and the guy pricing up my new machine has recommended the GTX 970 or GTX 980. Are these still officially not supported as mentioned earlier?

Which card would you guys go for if you were buying a new one today for around the £200 mark? Or should I just keep my 660ti..?

[R Neil Haugen]

The CC models do NOT have any list of supported or unsupported built into them ... IF the gear is up to snuff, they use it ... if too old/paleolithic, they don't. So there is a list of the ​recommended​ capabilities of video cards for the DVA's, but no list of "supported" cards. Hasn't been since CS6 what, four years ago?

I've been using a 970/4Gb card for a couple years, works fine. Looking at the 1080/1070 cards and drooling.

Just keep what you have, theres just not that much difference. trust me i used them all.

A faster processor, more memory and an SSD drive will all make much more difference to your workload than a new GPU.

[davidpayne1981]

thanks Guys. firetrak thats what I suspected to be honest. I'm going for an 8 core i7, 64gb ddr4 ram, and a pci-e ssd for project files, high speed ssd for cache and my existing ssd for OS so I think everything else will hopefully be up to spec.

Sound card and gpu are the 2 things I'm unsure of, I think I might go ahead with the upgrade and keep my existing GPU and sound card as you suggest and then maybe spend some more time researching. To be honest the 660ti has never let me down and it works well with my monitor setup having 2x DVI and 1x HDMI outs.

[firetrak]

i've gone through so many different cards from $1000+ to $200 and they just make no difference in editing.

For instance I have a 970gtx and only in After Effects does adobe even use it and then only 10% of the cards power.

I dont care what adobe says they just do not use the GPU barely at all.

Now I will notice AE using using 30gb of my 32gb in my machine and 100% of my CPU, which tells me all I need to know.

Even an SSD cant be fully utilized as the process speed is CPU dependent and will never match (at least in todays versions) an SSD's throughput. But an SSD is totally beneficial for caching for simply making your PC o/s run faster and more efficiently hence making adobe doing the same, which less bottlenecks.

And ultimately its the bottlenecks you want to get rid of at any cost, because you could use a Titan card and have a slow physical drive or older CPU and less, slower memory and that Titan v/card may as well be a $50 newegg special.

Here is my GTX 970 with 99% usage during the exporting of a 1080 AVCHD file to a MPEG2-DVD format with my GTX 970 on my i7-5960X at 4.5 GHz.

It strictly depends on what you are doing and what effects and features you use.  It took 27 seconds to export this 2 minute 39 second timeline.  With the CPU only it takes 10 times as long (276 seconds).  This was done using Premiere 10.3.0.202.

[firetrak]

hmm weird i i'm literally outputting the same thing right now, doesn't use my card at all. And it has a bunch of color effects in the timeline.

[Bill_Gehrke]

If you want to download the file that I used go to my ppbm7.com web site.  It has not yet been updated to Premiere 10.3 but just let it rename the PPBM9 project file and when it opens select the MPEG2-DVD timeline and export it.

[firetrak]

cool useful site, thanks.

[Bill_Gehrke]

Be careful as it is going out of date, I am not able to maintain it properly as my dear friend Harm who did most of that has passed away.

[Bill_Gehrke]

One thing I noticed is that your GTX 970 idles at 0.850 volts now it may be different with different vendors having different settings but I checked mine and it idles at 0.875 volts VDDC.  Are you sure your power supply is capable and working properly? 

[firetrak]

Great observation Bill, Its a 700w PSU, but i'm not running any physical drives all SSD's so even thats overkill lol.

[michaelj76073265]

A lot of people got a huge problem about this issues, my opinion why don't you guys who has testified to see which specs and the availability of the machines that can run Adobe products, why don't you name it or show us the type of Graphic cards, Ram, speed of the Board, resolution etc, why don't you help those who suffered from this problem.... So what I'm mean now is guys if you are using a Destop machine that run all adobe products, please drop the specs, explain abit for us,  because we don't want to go buy machine that can't run it... We need help, the requirements of it

[DV2FOX]

[davidpayne1981]

nothing to do with adobe apps but i have had nothing but issues with that motherboard! Do you find you cant boot with usb hubs connected?

[Alan_Craven]

I would never try to boot with a USB hub attached - in fact I am not even sure that I still have one!

Booting with external drives attached has always seemed a bit hit and miss to me.

[davidpayne1981]

It should work with any USB connected as far as I'm concerned. Why would you never boot with a USB hub? Just because you don't have one?

I'm talking about the USB hubs required to use a monitors USB ports for example.

[michaelj76073265]

I'm using Gigabyte Destop machine 2.9 ghz... Intel core i7 Ram 8 gig DDr3 I want to go buy GTX 970 4gb to support it

.... My question? Can it run all Adobe products? I need answers Especially Premier Pro and After Effect
