Disclaimer: My knowledge in this area is
limited as I don't use the raytracing in AE at all...
The AMD cards in the new Mac Pro are optimised for OpenCL, AE
ray-tracing uses CUDA.
Options are:
1. buy another computer with a CUDA card (Nvidia)
2. switch to different software (I hear Final Cut Pro X makes good
use of the cards)
3. wait for AE to be re-written to take advantage of OpenCL (which
may be never)
4. put up with CPU rendering
Sorry for the bad news.
I hope it wasn't your money!

Hello Guys and Girls,
my client just purchased a Mac Pro with a Mac Pro graphics card. To my surprise
After Effects CC doesnt recognise the graphics card and hence I cant accelerate
my ray traced 3D projects.
Any ideas on how to resolve this??
Thank you
Peter
