Quadro v GTX 980?

We are specialist UK TV production unit using win 7 pcs (who on earth would use 8?) in PAL at 25 fps of course.
Adobe Premier pro, after effects etc etc CC 2014  latest incarnation installed on each and all three are v fast i7 multi thread chips with 24 gig ram and pure ssd raids/system and good boards - all water cooled.
GRAPHICS CARDS -  we have two GTX 580's and a 680 loaded - one on each.
WE DO NOT PLAY PC GAMES, we HD video edit, make graphics and animation stuff and assemble audio etc.
All we want are faster rendering speeds for our HD TV commercials and multi layered projects to take full advantage of what we have already at a cost which is reasonable.
I am an old person, without a computing degree, but have been a TV director/producer for 35 years and have learnt much about this convergence of TV and PC but not all...
Someone please tell me to buy three GTX980s or three Quadro 5000's or other!. What is best for us?
ANYTHING to gain more cudas...

See Tweakers Page - Exporting Style , Tweakers Page - What video card to use? and Tweakers Page - Balanced Systems
A Quadro K5000 at € 1800 performs almost equal to the GTX 760 at € 200. Around 11% slower than the much more affordable 760.
The GTX 760 is almost as good as the current GTX 680. For exporting the video card is largely unused. It is a matter of the CPU. Read the first link.
A GTX 980 can be useful if you have a single overclocked 6+ core CPU or dual 6+ core Xeons with lots of memory, 64 GB and very fast raid arrays. In all other cases the 980 is overkill.
With only 24 GB memory, I assume you are talking about the first gen i7-9xx CPU, not the i7-39xx or i7-49xx. If this assumption is correct, then keep your current video cards. It is a waste of money to get new video cards for what can at most be a very marginal performance improvement on rendering for preview and no benefit at all with rendering / encoding for export.

  • X99S GAMING 9 AC Not booting - Debug 94 code - Issue with GTX 980 SLI in WoW

    Hello, I bought the X99S GAMING 9 AC motherboard but have ran into some issues.
    The computer won't boot when I put my second MSI GTX 980 Gaming 4 GB card in the last PCEI 3.0 port (PCIE port 5) and I get the debug LED message 94 on the motherboard. I have a SLI setup.
    The first card I have in the second PCIE 3.0 port due to the Noctua U14S CPU fan takes up space for the first slot. So I have been running my grafic cards in PCIE slot 2 and 4 with some issues.
    First the card in slot 2 gets really warm over 86 celsius. And second: SLI runs really poorly in World of Warcraft. I get a lot higher performance with just one card activated. I am not sure if it's cause I am not running my cards in the recommended PCIE 3.0 ports or because WoW has some issues with SLI, but I heard other people have no issues at all with WoW in SLI.
    I got the same issue with 3Dmark firestrike, the cards perform really poor in SLI. I get higher score with SLI turned off..
    Though SLI seems to run pretty well in 3dmark 11 and Diablo 3 Reaper of Souls.
    But the main issue right now, is that the computer won't boot with the grafic cards in PCIE port 2 and 5. The solution to run them next to each other is not good, cause it gets really hot and I get bad performance in WoW and Firestrike.
    Picture of my setup before I switched places with the grafic cards as you can see, it is really tight:
    Any upcoming bios updates (got v1.3) that will solve this issue on the horization? Hopefully this get sorted out really soon..
    My whole computer setup:
    Intel i7 5820K | MSI X99S Gaming 9 AC (bios 1.3) | SLI MSI GTX 980 Gaming 4GB | Samsung 850 Pro 512 GB | WD Red 4TB | G.Skill Ripjaws DDR4 3000MHz 4x4GB | EVGA SuperNOVA P2 1000W | Noctua NH-U14S PnP | Fractal Design Define XL R2 | 5 Noctua NF-A14 PWM 140mm fans | Windows 7 Pro 64 bit

    You must use the recommended PCIE slots as the manual says for your CPU type, PCIE #1 and PCIE #4 if I remember, just open the manual :P for optimal 2Way SLI, also your 5820k will limit to 28 pcie lanes only if you plan to add more vgas...the other problem is your giant CPU air cooler blocking PCIE#1, do a favor to yourself, buy a watercooler for your 5820k and your problems are gone, add some overclock in your system, low noise and better temps.
    Here I use 3x980 in SLI with X99S Gaming 9 AC, going soon to WC the VGAs with EK blocks.....3way is far more temperature critical than 2way spaced one.
    Cheers

  • Exporting in Premiere Pro with a GTX 980 CUDA takes 4 hours

    Okay, this problem has been plaguing me ever since I upgraded to a new PC with some very high end hardware. I'm trying to export a 25 minute h.264 encoded mp4 file from an AVI video and PCM audio source, however, exporting it using YouTube 1080p preset takes over 4 hours. This used to never happen before, even on my old laptop which had a GTX 675M card and would take 1.5 hours at most.
    The source files I use through video capture is AVI with MPEG-1(VBR) 1920x1080 resolution with 29.97 frames/second. The audio source is PCM WAV 48.0KHz stereo.
    The preset I have for exporting in Premiere Pro/AME CC 2014 is:
    video: h.264 format, 1.0 square pixel, 29.97 frames/second, Progressive scan
    bitrate: VBR(1 pass), target/max: 8.0 Mbps
    audio: AAC 192kbps, 48kHz stereo
    The hardware I am using is a Gigabyte x99 ud-4 motherboard with G.Skill Ripjaws 16GB DDR4 2400Mhz RAM, i7-5820K CPU 3.30 GHz, Windows 7 64bit OS, with an Nvidia GTX 980 card with CUDA enabled in both Premiere and the Nvidia Control Panel. Yet, I am still getting over 4 hours rendering time during my exports for a 20-30min video source? I  am completely stumped on this and it's unbelievably frustrating to see my top of the line system take so long to render this file when my 2-3 year old laptop did the export in 1/3rd of that time? I do this as a hobbyist and any help on trying to get this fixed would be a major help to me. Thank you in advance!

    Hmmm...
    I did a quick test in your behalf with a test project with and without "alpha glow" applied to all of the media.
    The results were actually kind of strange:
    - export to .mp4 utilized all cores (6-core box w/ Hyperthreads) with a smooth 82% utilization for the whole export; memory usage (also from task manager) went up and once it hit a maximum, it stayed there
    - export to .mp4 with "alpha glow" applied -> CPU usage started out pretty good, then memory usage maxed out and then actually cam down; after a bit, the CPU usage stabilized at around 22%, or about 25% of what it had been at the start of the export
    Smells to me like an Adobe bug or design-flaw.
    Anyway, good luck with your testing.
    I totally agree with Bill's suggest to do a full PPBM7 test on your new rig and report the scores back here - and to the PPBM7 site of course. This will help you to have confidence in your new hardware and setup. Once your hardware and configuration (for Win7, drive caching, Premiere settings, etc.) are working fine, then your particular workflow, etc. can be a separate troubleshooting step.
    Good luck!

    Jim

  • Can i use my GPU NVIDIA GTX 980 with Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014 ?

    Hello,
    Sorry for my english , i'm french.
    I need your help because when i read a video in 4K , it's not fluid.
    I have a GTX 980 and 16 GB Ram, Intel Core i7 3770.

    Bonjour Gauthier,
    I need your help because when i read a video in 4K , it's not fluid.
    I have a GTX 980 and 16 GB Ram, Intel Core i7 3770.
    Check your Project Settings > General. Under Video Rendering and Playback > Renderer, is it set to "Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (CUDA)?" If not, enable it, and then see if your performance improves.
    Thanks,

  • Support for nvidia gtx-980 for after effects and premiere

    Can someone tell me when Adobe is going to give CUDA support for the Nvidia gtx-980 video cards in After Effects and Premiere CS6?  I purchased this card specifically for those programs, and DON'T want to do a subscription to Creative Cloud.  I purchased the Master Collection through Adobe, and understand that CC versions support it.  Why can't Adobe issue a btch file or update to include these cards.  I am aware of OpenGl support, but I would like to add my new card.  I also just purchased an i7-4790K to upgrade from i5-3570 to help speed up rendering, but would really like to see the video card supported.

    The simple answer is no.

  • After Effects rendern über GPU mit GeForce GTX 980

    Hallo
    Mein Problem ist: Ich kann im After Effects nicht über meine neue Grafikkarte (GTX 980) über GPU rendern.
    Was muss ich tun damit ich über GPU rendern kann? Kann mir jemand Helfen?
    Facts:
    Programmversion: Adobe After Effects CC 2014.1.1 (Version 13.1.1.3.) Auf dem neusten Stand
    Grafikkarte: GeForce GTX 980
    Treiber: Nivida-Treiber auf dem neusten Stand (Cuda wird unterstützt)
    System: Windows 8.1, 64 Bit, , Prozessor i7-4770K, 3.5 Ghz, RAM 32GB,
    Dies habe ich bereits ausprobiert:
    CUDA-Hack: In die Datei "raytracer_supported_cards.txt" meine Grafikkarte reingeschrieben (ohne Schreibfehler ) -> funktioniert leider nicht
    Weiss jemand eine Lösung? oder kann mir Weiterhelfen?
    Besten Dank bereits im Vorraus für Feedbacks

    Eine GPU verwenden, die von After Effects unterstützt wird. Eventuell nicht den neuesten Treiber nehmen. Warum werden Treiber so oft aktualisiert? Weil auch mit jeder Version neue Bugs entstehen.

  • Geforce GTX 980 TI

    Aspire Acer G3 605 PredatorGPU: GeForce GTX 980CPU: intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4590 CPU @ 3.30GHzMemory: 12.00 GB RAM (11.92 GB Usable)Current Resolution: 1920 x 1080, 30HzDriver Version: 353.30Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8.1 Pro I am pretty sure its a 500+ PSU thats in there the needed PSU for a Geforce GTX 980 TI would be a 600+ or 650+ however after doing some reading,  statement was made where by this was said..... so i went out and bought a 650 psu and the 980 Ti. turns out this Acer pc uses some stupid 12 pin connector that no other pc uses.I would assume that connector is for the PSU as opposed to the GPU, either way do we have a PSU that will fit straight in so i could use a GTX 980 GPU ?

    Hello Durand1981,  So the bottomline here comes down to this: Gateway(now owned by Acer) used proprietary 12v connectors for their motherboards. This connector is unique to their products and create a very difficult environment for those who choose to upgrade their PSUs.  However, despite the difficulty of circumventing the proprietary wiring, there is a solution to this. It comes in the form of a DYI rewiring to attach an adaptor to make a 24-pin AT connector compatible with the 12v rail. You can follow the instructions here if you wish to explore this option.   I personally would recommend getting a new motherboard to compliment your new GPU to ensure there are no compatibility issues -- though this may void your OEM Windows OS license. It's the easiest, albeit most expensive solution, but it also provides an additional layer ensuring that your system is prepared for future upgrades and enchancements that this proprietary mobo+PSU combo almost prohibits.

  • [request] what BIOS should I be using? GTX 980

    I have a GTX 980 gaming 4G, serial #:
    602-V317-11SB1410046189
    MSI Live update previously had me install NV317MH.143.   Now it is telling me the latest version is NV317MH.113, which looks like a downgrade in version #.  Why is it swapping between the 14x and 11x lines?  What version should I be using?  I have Live Update 6.0.012 and win8.1.

    Quote from: Svet on 22-December-14, 04:20:43
    NV317MH.143 is the latest one for your card
    do you use latest live update version?
    can you show a screeshot from this issue?
    I can confirm that what he's saying is true, I also have a 980 with 143 bios and MSI Live Update is telling me that there is a new bios 113 for my 980 Gaming.
    So what do we do now? update it to 113 or leave it with 143?
    Bcbarnes, lower number doesn't mean its a downgrade, they are just for different batches of 980 Gaming GPU's.
    113 should really be for 980 gaming gpu's with serial number of lets say 03s for example, so it is strange that MSI Live Update is telling us to install 113 since our 980 serial code is 11s.

  • Witcher 3 and Batman: AK codes not appearing after registering GTX 980

    I recently purchased an MSI GTX 980 Gaming 4G card from an online retailer called CPL (Australian based retailer in Melbourne). I was told by their staff via email that I would be able to receive the codes once I registered my product with MSI. After completing the registration process, I found no codes for either game under the 'Promotions' tab on my MSI member profile, or in the links provided in said tab. I noticed a couple of others have had this issue https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=255551.0 but this post did not contain a solution for me.
    Please help, as the I would like to give these games to my girlfriend for her birthday tomorrow.

    Just bought msi gtx970 and registered it using the serial from the card and my retail store said that registering would give me an activation code for Witcher 3 but there is nothing. It also says i bought the card in the USA which i didn't but theres no options to change it or find the activation code. This game is a big part of why i bought and upgraded my vid card and upgraded my system. Where is it?
