Hello,
I just downloaded Visualize because I wanted to improve rendering speeds using my GPU but when I started rendering I noticed that the times were the sames as the ones on Photoview.
I tried selecting manually rendering with the GPU and not hybrid but I got a message saying: "An internal error occurred. Please see log file for details". After checking log files this is what I found:

I have the latest drivers from Nvidia and I checked as well that there were no SW processes running on the task manager.
I don't know what else to do, what else can I do?
Thanks!
HI German ,
The Pascal Quadro series card (or P cards) are not support on any Visualize version under 2017 SP1 , this is simply because they did not exist at that time. This means you will not be able to take advantage of GPU rendering until you upgrade to Visualize 2017 SP1.0 or higher.
