  RE: [Closed] Help me buy my new PC : please render this 1-minute project on yours!
  For hardware power comparisons please see the benchmarks in my signature. You can change the view to only see NVIDIA, etc. So at position 198 there's a person using i5-9400F and no GPU, and their render time = 1:30. And at 184 there's a person with

  Render speed improvements 👍👍
  For a long time I used (MMS) Magix Movie Studio (formerly Movie Edit Pro), I upgraded to VP18, 19, 20, 21 & now 22. For quite a while I still used MMS to render quick simple projects because the Infusion engine was 3-4 times faster than VP, but

  RE: Render freezes - I have tried EVERYTHING
  I highly doubt it's a hardware issue and wouldn't advise trying to upgrade to fix it. See if the projects in my signature render with the recommended settings and then we can take a look at your media/project. For this purpose keep dynamic ram

  RE: What is the fastest operating system to run Vegas Pro 19
  @Reyfox Yeah, that's the big mistake many users make. They upgrade Windows OS, but not their system hardware. You cannot upgrade Windows on the very same old hardware and expect to see big changes and improvements.

  RE: New AMD RX 7600 XT not fully recognized by VP 20.411
  What I think that some people question is, when my past GPU would be used close to 100% and my new GPU isn't even close, why. My old RX480 would be extensively used in rendering, sometimes at 100%, yet, the more recent RX 6700XT rarely approaches

  Glad you found a solution, but curious as to which driver version you are using? 24.9.1 is the latest listed. From my understanding, the Polaris cards are EOL (end of life) without any more driver updates. Like @john_dennis, my RX480 has been in the
