Welcome to setting up blender for g.p rendering.

00:04.470 --> 00:07.460
In this video first of all it is optional.

00:07.460 --> 00:13.110
This video if you do not have a dedicated GP this lecture will not apply to you because you will not

00:13.110 --> 00:15.770
be able to follow along fully.

00:15.810 --> 00:21.840
You may find afterwards after you finish this letter that your GP who is in fact slower than your s.p.

00:21.840 --> 00:28.500
you at rendering And finally there is a reason to have your GP you using it even if it is slower.

00:28.500 --> 00:34.830
It does mean you'll see he is free to do other things that may make a difference to how you're working

00:34.830 --> 00:36.250
on your computer.

00:36.770 --> 00:39.600
But let's hop straight on over into blender.

00:40.780 --> 00:45.660
So here we have my default blender file opened up with our lovely cube in it.

00:45.680 --> 00:50.050
We need to go to file and user preferences.

00:50.140 --> 00:58.160
Once you've gone to use a preference is you will find the option that we need is under the system.

00:58.570 --> 01:03.040
Now I am going to make this windows slightly bigger on the left hand side.

01:03.040 --> 01:06.160
If we go down and down we see compute.

01:06.180 --> 01:08.650
Device is set to Khuda.

01:08.890 --> 01:16.850
If you have an 8 a.m. Day card that will see open C. L. And you can switch them backwards and forwards.

01:16.850 --> 01:19.560
Here we can see the compute device here says none.

01:19.780 --> 01:23.700
And but we can use the s.p. you coulda.

01:24.100 --> 01:30.010
That enables us to use our built in graphics card in this case and in video graphics card as it's cued

01:30.010 --> 01:30.500
up.

01:30.730 --> 01:34.740
And once they selected you do have to save user preferences.

01:34.780 --> 01:38.960
Otherwise it will not apply the next time you open a blender.

01:39.010 --> 01:39.790
So there we go.

01:39.790 --> 01:44.760
We've now set up blender to utilize the graphics card when it renders.

01:44.760 --> 01:49.840
There were a few other setting changes that will need to make to ensure that it does use the graphics

01:49.840 --> 01:52.920
card but will deal with those in the next lecture.
