GPU selection

In order to ensure optimum performance, parts of Edit mode run off of your GPU. ACDSee Home automatically chooses the best GPU in your system. This option —Let ACDSee decide — is enabled by default. When Let ACDSee decide is enabled, GPU model text displays next to the option, specifying whether Edit mode is running off of your primary GPU or another, more superior GPU that ACDSee Home has detected. In most cases, the GPU detected and identified as the best by ACDSee will be one and the same: your primary GPU.

  • Use primary: you can enable this option if you prefer to use your primary GPU over the GPU ACDSee Home has chosen.
  • Let ACDSee decide: select this option to enable using the superior GPU found by ACDSee.
