derpuma Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Hey guys, I am thinking about a replacement of my Graphics Card. As you can see in the screenshot i am running a Intel Core i5 4670K 4x 3.40GHz CPU overlocked to 4.2 GHz. As GPU a Nvidia GTX2 285. I am doing heavy web development, graphics design and some video editing with my system. Sometimes a little bit of 3D witt Cinema 4D or Blender. I know a new GFX, lets say a relatively cheap 750 Ti would speed up my Cuda performance and Open CL speed, and brings it to the newest Versions of each, witch are not supported by the old GTX 285. But my Question is. Brings the replacement of the old GPU a better overall speeded and balanced Yosemite System? I have the problem that Yosemite gets a little bit laggy after a whole day of work, with Photoshop, Illustrator and some Editor open and Safari, Firefox, with a bunch of Tabs... As i cannot increase my RAM, the only way I can speedup my sys is the old GPU. What do you think. Will it speed up my system? Witch part of Yosemite profits form GPU excelleration? By the way. I am using a Crucial MX100 512GB SSD! BR, derpuma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vusun123 Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Why not invest in some other GPUs like the Nvidia GTX 760 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derpuma Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 This doesn't answer my question... 750 Ti is fast enough, lowest in price and supports all the new cuda and open cl and supports 4 Monitors. All for 150 Bucks! 760 is 60-80 Bucks higher... But anyway, the question was if "lets say" a newer GPU speeds up my Yosemite workflow? Thats my question... I know that the more faster the GPU, the better the rendering times in Premiere, After Effects, Blender etc... But does it affect when using "normal software"? A lot of Browsertabs, Photoshop, Illustrator and some other stuff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
