Dear All,

I am using HP Z 440 workstation and my graphic card is amd firepro w7100. I want to know the best settings for graphic card so as to get the best rendered images. I am not able to find the settings. Settings here includes everything like frame rate, display, system settings etc.

Visualize only supports Nvidia graphics cards for GPU rendering. You can still use Visualize with the Firepro but it will only use the CPU for rendering.

  Further to Rob's reply ,
  
  Graphics cards have no bearing on the quality of render they will only impact the amount of time it takes to render your image. Your quality will be dictated from your Output Tab and your settings.
