3D Ray Tracing
GPU-accelerated ray tracing enables 3D beveled and extruded text and shapes to be created directly inside After Effects CC at maximum speeds without the need for an external animation tool. Design more physically accurate scenes to create beautiful results such as reflections, transparency, soft shadows, and depth-of-field blur with NVIDIA GPUs and interact smoothly with the new Live 3D pipeline between After Effects CC and Cinema 4D.
Global Performance Cache
The Global Performance Cache feature makes After Effects CC faster and more responsive than ever before by taking full advantage of the power of your computer's hardware. NVIDIA GPUs allow you to accelerate previews when drawing images to the screen for a highly interactive experience.
