I had spent most of my evening trying to smoothly playback a 30fps clip in Davinci Resolve and looked up a bunch of tutorials but none seemed to be working. Until I changed my driver and now it runs great. Thank you for this video, you deserve a new sub!
also, davinci resolve works alot better with optomized media. I also love that you can switch your timeline resolution on the fly and edit super fast in like 720 or something then switch back to 4k at the end to color grade. super cool
For AMD, there is a setting you can change within the latest drivers: Settings -> Graphics -> Advanced -> GPU Workload. Here, you can switch between "Graphics" and "Compute", though I don't know (yet) how much it *really* affects rendering time. Initially, it was introduced during the crypto mining craze a few years ago (remember that time? Getting a new graphics card back then was quite a pain 😅) to utilize the graphics cards better when mining, so... It might benefit video editing, it might not.
I’m on a Mac but this is still interesting. I’d often wondered why good media production GPUs often aren’t good at gaming. Love the Resolve content, keep it coming!
Great video Jay thank you! Just got a Legion Y540 and did some video editing for my channel, and was having the exact same issue. I really appreciate the help!
Thanks for this tip, recently got an msi gaming laptop for editing music/video/photos and had no idea this option was there. The performance was good out of the box but I swapped the driver anyway just because it seems more appropriate for my uses
Searching for something completely different and came across this 4 year old video and THANK YOU so much! Didn't even know there was a difference but man will this help me in both short and long term
Maaaan...where has this video been all my life! Thank you Jay for the tips and tricks on a smoother running PC experience when selecting Studio Drivers. I shoot and edit a lot of videos on my Alienware laptop and use to get a ton of glitches and HEAVY lagging where audio would play in my timeline ..but the video couldn't seem to keep up...such a nightmare and so much wasted hours at the desk. This adjustment has provided a much smoother experience when scrubbing through footage and rendering. Cheers
Great, thanks very much. I have an Acer + Nvidia and just changed my driver. Having changed from slower editing software to DVR I didn't think rendering was that slow, but happy if it's even quicker.
@@ChestieBluMfnChz I wonder why ppl still say that, or "I could care less" Oh so you care too much about it ? lol :D Sorry it could have come at a better time, try to make the best of it now I guess :P
I have watched more than 100 videos on youtube related to gaming benchmark's & editing benchmark's of different specifications, but none of the video they mentioned about this settings thanks for this awesome information.
I just got a new (gaming) laptop and will do more video/photo editing than gaming on it. This tip should go a LONG way towards making my experience with this laptop better.
I’ll be buying an XMG Apex 15 in the near future hopefully and was pretty much getting acquainted with what I need to do to make sure my hardware is on the same page as my goals for it. Thanks to you I know how the GPU can know.
This is also true of 3D animation software, like iClone. iClone 7 actually stopped working almost at all with one version of the nvidia game driver. Definitely want the studio driver. Thanks for another great tut, Jay! Love your channel. :-)
Researching a new laptop and came across your info. Like a couple of other's here, I didn't know about the "Studio" drivers....thanks heaps for that snippet champ :) Now for some critique....please sit on your hands for future vids ;) lol
Man,you have done it again. I was wondering why Davinci was stuttering when I can play games at 60fps no problem. Jay, you are a wee cheeky godsend to us all. Thank you so much.
This is good to know that there are Studio drivers. although for gtx860m there isn't a studio driver. I will update the gaming drivers as davinci crashes every now and then
Wow! IS THATS IT???? I have been looking to solve this problems for month and even IT didn't mentioned this to me. I paid IT guy to have a look my pc and he sort of done some work but it didn't changed the rendering speed and other tasks. I have powerful PC and couldn't understand why when it comes to video editing, photo shop and other video editing program all at the same time slowed my PC. I have good ram and all other bits. I have now changed the drivers to studio and all the problems I had GONE ❤ I am so glad I found your video. It randomly popped up on the feeds, I lost hope I can do anything with PC as it is powerful PC. So, changed to studio drivers and amazing how everything go smooth. I don't play games I do video editing, photo editing. Thank you, great video, very helpful
MY MAN! I'm about tu purchase a Gaming laptop for video editing and one major problem i see with many good laptops are reviewers saying that "this doesn't work for Video editing". Now i know that they are reviewing it in Gaming Mode. Many thanks! now i can purchase with confidence!
Hi Jay... thanks for this video. Great advice. I'm in the market for a new laptop for photo and video editing. Which laptop would you recommend? What laptop do you use for editing?
Really good tip Jay. Also worth noting that not all nvidia cards have Studio drivers, my old 660ti only had gaming drivers my new rtx2060 super has choice of both.
Thanks! I’m really hoping to find a laptop to game well and do vr well but I also need it to do animation and video editing. I’m in search of a laptop and it’s difficult. So I hope this will work. Thanks!
..........and that is why when I go to task manager and look up the GPU graph it's hitting 100% in the 3D dept. Gonna look up those drivers you recommend thanks!
Bruh!!!! why didnt i notice this! you just got a sub! i love you now! also what laptop do you suggest in the $2000 or less range for smooth 4k editing in DaVinci or premier? i wont be buying until next april so my hope is that there are some AMD CPU and gpu combo's better than the 2060's and 1660 ti combo's i keep finding by then...
I'm not sure! I haven't really looked at laptops in a while. I would honestly just look at the system requirements for whatever program you're using and try and find something in your budget that exceeds those specs.
Hi, good video. Could you tell me your opinion about the better laptop por video editing in premiere and davinci, between ASUS TUF Gaming A15 FA507RR (Rysen 7, 16 ram, 3070 de 8gb, 1 tb) and MSI Katana GF66 11UE-853XES (intel i7, 1y ram, 3060 de 6gb, 1tb). Thanks
at 3.14 you say... after installing the nvidia "studio" drivers your render times have INCREASED!!!! a slip of the tongue I hope ;-) informative video thanks for sharing the knowledge.
I just spent ages trying to figure out when I downloaded the game driver I lost the studio driver and vice versa and then finally stumbled across something that said you can have one or another not both at the same time and be able to switch between them at convenience which I thought my machine was doing a week ago but this evening I had to have one or the other.
Had the same Issue,Thank youu for this :) .I know it sounds a little foolish(hehe) but can you just swap drivers?Like when your friends comeover and you just want to play a game with max fps?maybe like once a month or so?
phew so that's why my my rendering got sluggish because I use the acer nitro 5 for editing videos I've been using it for a few months so of course like you said it is rather a bit sluggish in rendering I thought I did something wrong but well it's for gaming so editing here will be annoying a bit so thank you, you fixed my problem
Hi Jay, Your GeForce Experience says: 'You have the latest studio driver' but mine is different: GeForce Game Ready Driver and at those three dots I have only one option: 'Reinstall driver'. Any thoughts on that? Thanks, A
First of all, thanks for all the great content! I am having issues using Resolve on my laptop, because it's a Microsoft Surface Book 1. Its the version with the dedicated Nvidia dGPU in addition to Intel HD Graphics 520, and since the free version of Resolve only can use 1 GPU and chooses the one that doesn't render my display output, it uses that one. But this has only 1GB of memory, although it says it has 8GB of additional shared memory. Do you know anyone who got it to work on this laptop? Or would the paid version work, since it can use 2 GPUs and then I could use both of them, which should solve the problem I guess? Thanks!
great video man, thanks. didn't know this even existed either like many others. i'm thinking of updating my older desktop actually which i use for editing, but i thought maybe i can get a gaming laptop instead and use it with my 2 existing monitors as dual screens. that way i can also take the laptop with me if i need to be mobile. however, i have 2 4TB hdd's in my tower right now that i use for storage and i don't know what to do about those (can't really put those in the laptop lol). i don't know if i can build some kind of external hdd tower i can plug into my laptop when needed or something. have any recommendations? appreciate it!
If they are SATA drives, then you can actually put them in an external drive bay and use them as an external drive. There are a few of them on Amazon you can check out.
@@JayLippman oh sweet. i didn't know they sold separate external drive enclosures like that. yes, they are sata drives. will those drives, when connected to laptop, be able to be encrypted? i have one of the drives encrypted with Vera Crypt, not sure how that will work with the drive being externally connected. I'm sure it will work just fine but just curious your thoughts. thank you!
a NAS enclosure will do what you want, and is designed for that purpose. Also you buy them as many slots as you think you will need for expansion later
Sir when i edit a vedio shot on my phone in 4k 60 fps mode it lags too much and every time i have to generate optimezed media to edit it . And the fusion page titles and effects also takes lot of time to render soo please help my system config is 8 gb ram ryzen 5 4600h and gtx 1650 4 GB VRAM

I assume is this the same for desktops as well.

Thx! for reminding me, just a'boot to change machines again..
Can you go back and forth from one driver to the other multipule times depending on what activity your doing?
