Hi Teddy.

I see that was no Quadro results in your benchmark, so i downloaded it and ran the test on my Z820 with a K5000 card.

HP Z820, 2x E5-2687W @ 3.1Ghz, 128GB ram, Quadro K5000 4GB (driver 320.78), Windows 7 64bit
9 min 31 sec.

Everybody knows that Quadro isn't about speed, and this proves it once again :-D
I knew it would not keep up with the GTX680, but slower than a GTX480?? that did come as a surprise.

When doing the test i had another project open in another instance of AE CC, but it was sitting idle while rendering the benchmark. i only did some low intesity e-mailing and web surfing while it rendered.

Point would be for AE CUDA performance the Quadro isn't worth it :-)

Might have a look at that Titan again... or wait for the next version of it

Todd, I'm hurt. How could you neglect my own awesome AE GPU benchmark thread and project?

To be clear, I was just answering between the two choices given, not recommending the GTX 770 over all other cards. I will not answer broad questions like that. I will just point you to Danny Princz’s benchmark test results for After Effects and Harm Millaard’s benchmark test results for Premiere Pro, as I do here:

Yep I agree with Todd, I barely max out my VRAM in AE or PPRO unless doing tons of 3D layering / raytracing stuff. Better off with more cores. However, honestly - IMO he should grab a GTX 580 3GB edition on ebay. It's actually faster than the newer GTX 6/7 series for CUDA and much cheaper. I have an SLI rig with 2x GTX 580 that's faster than my GTX Titan...
