GPU selection

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

  • Use primary: Enable this option to use the primary GPU over the GPU Gemstone has chosen.
  • Let ACDSee Gemstone Photo Editor decide: Enable this option to use the superior GPU found by Gemstone.

Adobe® Photoshop® Plug-in Paths
