Dear Members,
I am a relatively new ACDSee user. In order to speed up image and video processing, I just upgraded my PC from an i5-2500 to a Ryzen 1700X CPU. I also replaced the SATA SSD with an M2 PCIE one. The video card remained the same, an ATI HD 4600 series (GPU: RV730, 1 GB RAM). The Passmark score of the new CPU is twice that of the old one. I am using win7 and ACDSee Ultimate 2018.
Video rendering sped up considerably (almost threefold), however, batch exporting from ACDSee is barely faster. I noticed that the CPU is not utilized to 100% while batch exporting (see linked Process Explorer graph). The GPU is not used at all (perhaps it's too old).
What is your suggestion for speeding up the export process? Is there a setting that would enable a 100% CPU utilization? Or should I upgrade the video card?
