From: Todd Kopriva To: After Effects Mail List Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Here are details of the GPU (CUDA, OpenGL) features in After Effects CS6: http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2012/05/gpu-cuda-opengl-features-in-after-effects-cs6.html The gist is, as others were saying, that CUDA is only a factor for the ray-traced 3D renderer. OpenGL speeds up some things, but any reasonably modern card fits the OpenGL requirements. On Sat, Feb 16, 2013 at 8:48 AM, Chris Meyer wrote: > Some specific plug-ins are indeed GPU accelerated.
