1. Re: CUDA and GTX 770
Todd_Kopriva Aug 18, 2013 8:42 AM (in response to Joergen Geerds)The GTX 770 is not a card that After Effects will use for the CUDA acceleration of the ray-traced 3D renderer. See the system requirements page:

Joergen Geerds Aug 18, 2013 8:54 AM (in response to Todd_Kopriva)Thank you for the system requirements link.
In my mind, I had hoped Adobe would have moved to a more generic GPU interface, especially since CUDA is readily available. As a non-programmer, I would almost say that many video cards are very similar (at least on the surface), and end users like me might not understand why the GPU they own isn't good enough to do something, when the next card easily does it.
My comments were also not only for 3D rendering tasks, but using the GPU for other tasks, like video encoding and other things that are generally slow.

3. Re: CUDA and GTX 770
Todd_Kopriva Aug 18, 2013 9:29 AM (in response to Joergen Geerds)Each card needs to be tested separately, especially in the early days of a technology---and CUDA and OpenCL are still in their early days. We do find problems with specific cards during testing, and we don't add those to the whitelist. That's why the whitelist exists.
Note that OpenGL, on the other hand, is treated more generically, so that any card that meets certain minimum requirements can be used for OpenGL features. That is because OpenGL is a more mature technology.
See this page for details:
FWIW, I have a GTX 770 on my desk right now for testing, and if all goes well I hope to add it to the whitelist for the next version of After Effects, which is targeted for release in September.

Todd_Kopriva Sep 9, 2013 4:18 PM (in response to Todd_Kopriva)The GTX 770 and several other cards have been added to the list of cards that After Effects will use for GPU acceleration of the ray-traced 3D renderer in the After Effects CC (12.1) update, coming in October.
