What are they? Well, MKV, MOV, MP4, AVI and more are all container files. And with a 400 or 500 series GPU we wouldn't get the Main Concept AVC rendering error.That's your problem right there - it's an MKV file. I didn't test any more than that because I don't like editing with PP.Īlthough we did not load Vegas onto the Z420 test system my observations lead me to believe that the newer quad-core Sandy Bridge & Ivy Bridge CPUs and an SSHD for temp files will yield the largest performance gains for both CS6 and Vegas. My Z400/680 was able to do play 4 layers, scaled down, moving across the frame, with CC on each clip, in realtime at full quality. I took a very brief look at Prem Pro CS6 on both systems and it did well, playing back multiple streams in realtime at full quality. What I DID notice was a vast improvement in AfterEffect's disk cache performance with the SSHD. I didn't bother to do any benchmarks because that really wasn't the point for me - I was hoping for a substantially more fluid working experience and the 680 card simply didn't deliver that. The result: When playing or scrubbing the timeline or creating a RAM preview, AfterEffects MAY have run a tiny bit faster - or maybe not.

We also added an Intel SSHD for temp files. And there was little, if any, improvement in Vegas or AfterEffects.Īs a final test we replaced the Quadro 3800 (192 CUDA cores) with a GeForce 680 (1536 CUDA cores) in the Z420 workstation. We than installed the GeForce 680 in my workstation.

The results were disappointing: the newer quad core with a less powerful graphics card ran AfterEffects MUCH faster. Our IT folks installed CS6 along with a Quadro 3800 in an HP Z420 workstation (quad core) to compare against my current workstation (HP Z400 6-core + GeForce 460 SE). I have to say that I wouldn't recommend a 600 series card just yet. Most of the presets are for Sony devices, but you can easily create a custom preset. In the Render As dialog, Sony AVC is seven down from Main Concept.
