Adobe Premiere Pro - Graphic Card under £100

Can you please help.

I'm doing a lot of not professional video editing under Adobe Premiere Pro.
Will I find good graphic card for under £100 to speed up the rendering process?
Any recommendations please?

Regards
 
With Adobe Premiere Pro better off with a Nvidia card as Adobe Premiere is Cuda capable as that will speed up the rendering process. Also more RAM and overclock the CPU too.

GTX 1050.
 
I use Premiere Pro but have found that although my 980Ti does a very fine job of rendering, the 7970 provided smoother playback where transitions are concerned, whereas over time the performance from my Nvidia card has become noticeably poorer in that regard. Personally, if it was me buying right now, I'd be looking for an AMD card for PP. Something like a second hand 290 with a decent cooler or if buying new, then the above mentioned RX 460 should be fine.

I see they're just about to put up the price of subscriptions. :/

Adobe also supports OpenCL, and have for quite some time.

I can’t update the processor as got I7 already... 64GB of RAM and very very FAST SSD hard drive... but graphics card will be used only for Adobe Premiere that is why I don’t want to spend a fortune on it :)
 
You can find 280x cards for £100 or if you lucky for less, you could probably find a used professional card too just not a recent model which might be useful?
 
Doesn't recent versions of Premiere Pro now work better with OpenCL compared to CUDA now? AMD cards would be the better choice.

I did find it an overall better experience when using my 7970 vs the 980Ti (playback/performance of transitions pre-render). I didn't compare project render times, though. :)

Yes they do, as pictured above.

My Fury X also provides a much better experience than my two 980Ti's did.
Now if only Adobe could access hardware as well as FCPX does.

This, Adobe are flatout neglecting nVidia propitiatory support and nVidia would rather not support Open Source beyond just having it, which they see as a threat to their business model.


You're much better off even with a seemingly much weaker cheaper AMD card than an nVidia mega card.
 
Amd cards do appear to work better my old pc with a 280x outperformed in playback and render against a high end 6 core 4930k and 770 with 32gb of ram back in the day... i was shocked
