i have to set up another one with an environment m= ap to test VRAM.

Danny, what can you tell us about your test?

I'd be curious to see results for two different tests: one with an anim= ated environment layer and one with a static environment layer. The animate= d environment layer will tax the bandwidth to the VRAM, which can be the bo= ttleneck rather than CUDA cores in some real-world uses.

the 590 is 2 580s on one card. so it should be way faster than a 580
havent tested any multi card setups yet but am interested in seeing that. i would have thought the 590 would be much faster than it was in this test<= br>

Why is the 590 beating everyone else out?

Could it be just a software support issue?

If that's the case, should I wait for the 680 to catch up or just splur= ge on the 590?

Thanks guys for the time and patience.

Cheers.

Hey Teddy,

Anything more to report? I'm looking at building my new PC for the sole= purpose of AE/ C4D work and I'm curious to know if you have anything m= ore to report between the GTX 680 and the GTX 580.

Thank you ever so much,

=A0 =A0 Well, shocking if you care about this sort of thing. So after some= struggles getting the GTX 680 to work with AE CS6 11.0.1 I finally got it = working. How would the 3 GB VRAM GTX 580, with 500 CUDA cores stack up to t= he brand new 2 GB VRAM GTX 680 with 1,500 CUDA cores?

Would it be worth upgrading if you already owned a 580? Would the extra 1 G= B VRAM make a difference for the older card?

Well I came up with a benchmark (228K) available HERE<http://www.teddygage.com/A= EBENCHCS6/> that maxes out the GPU and tests your CUDA processing ab= ility. You will need about 900 MB local space for the output and the new 11= .0.1 patch (probably).

Now a lot of figures are at play here but with the project using 100% GPU a= nd 25% CPU I think it's a decent bench for comparing graphics cards. He= re are the results:

GTX 680 (2GB) =3D 6 min. 11 sec to render
GTX 680 (2GB) (overclocked) =3D 5 min. 52 s
GTX 580 (3GB) =3D 5 min. 42 s

So the GTX 580 with 3GB VRAM is faster. Now it's hard to say whether th= at's because the architecture is more compute-friendly, or the extra GB= of VRAM makes that much of a difference.

Considering I got the 580 for about $415 shipped used on eBay, I'd say = for now nobody needs to rush out and buy a 680. It's performance is nea= rly as good, and great if you are focusing on games, but not for purely com= pute / cuda / mercury in CS6

I would love to hear some results on a 4GB 680, a 590 or a 690, let me know=
