home workstation is a i7-920 Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit o/s with modest NVidia GTS250 which is fully hardware compliant Shader 3.x and OpenGL 2.0 however my company issued laptop used for traveling demo's is a standard Dell Latitude D620 with non compliant Intel GPU which was unable to create simple 3D effects with any invoked PhotoShop graphic. Stumbled upon a possible workaround for those who want to use some of the latest CS5 PhotoShop enhancements such as 3D effects and Repoussee which is worth sharing. PS CS5 workaround to non compliant Shader3.x/OpenGL 2.0 video cards Sounds horrible if I don’t buy two video cards (and I don’t know that two can be comfortably driven by my 500 W power supply). Q2) What is meant by “It's best to connect two (or more) monitors into one video adapter”? Q1) By “multiple video adapters” does Adobe mean ‘multiple video cards’? Note: Using more than one video adapter does not enhance Photoshop's performance. Otherwise, crashes and other problems can occur in Photoshop. If you have to use more than one video adapter, make sure that they are the same make and model. It's best to connect two (or more) monitors into one video adapter. Multiple video adapters can cause problems with GPU-accelerated or enabled features in Photoshop. Getting more specific, the EVGA 01G-P4-3656-KR GeForce GTX 650 Ti BOOST Superclocked 1GB 192-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 SLI Support Video Card ($159) is the least expensive card in that series…īut it only has 2 DVI ports, meaning that I have to continue using my Gigabyte motherboard GIGABYTE GA-B75M-D3H LGA 1155 Intel B75 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard video capability for the 3rd monitor.

Using it, I notice that the NVidia GeForce 600 series are tested video cards that support OpenGL.

Question #3: If I run two monitors off an OpenGL compliant video card and another monitor off a video card that may not be OpenGL compliant can I still get the benefits of OpenGL? If I continue to run the third monitor from the motherboard (Display adaptor = Intel(R) HD Graphics), will that negate the advantage gained by the video board? In fact, when Photoshop complains about OpenGL issues how does it know which display adaptor it is addressing? I suspect that if I go the OpenGL route that I will be able to find a card that supports two monitors. Question #2: How many OpenGL versions are there and why should I be concerned? (each with a corresponding price increase)

When I search (for video cards I notice (doing a comparison) that some support "OpenGL" some "OpenGL 4.1" some "OpenGL 4.2". Question #1: Do I need to purchase digital monitors to get OpenGL to work? I believe all of my flatscreen monitors are analog (i.e., using the VGA portion of the DVI cable). I believe I would like to stick with NVIDIA technology. I am looking for an inexpensive video card that will support 2-3 monitors (currently I am running a NVIDIA Quadro NVS 285 for two DVI monitors and happily running the third DVI monitor off my motherboard). This post is to explore which graphics cards to consider, etc. The long term answer (see quote) seems to be to replace my graphics card. The immediate answer was to uncheck (Edit/Preferences/Performance) Enable OpenGL. This is a quote from my last post ("Photoshop opens up all files as transparent") in which I asked what I needed to do to get Photoshop to work.

Go through whatever process is necessary to fully remove the old drivers, get the latest released new drivers for the new card, and be happy. Go down to the local high tech store and get an inexpensive gamer card.

Just about any video card you can buy to replace it is better than that ancient circa 2006 video card.ĭo yourself a favor - don't waste any more of your time trying to make it work. Your GPU isn't really sufficient to run Photoshop.
