I'm running Windows 10 with Adobe Media Encoder CC (Newest Version) and i'm trying to render a Premier Pro project with the Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (CUDA). I have a GTX 660 and the option IS available, but I see no improvement between Software and GPU. While I was rendering the project I ran GPU-Z and saw 0% utilization. I thought this might have been an issue with the project because it uses twixtor but, I rendered a standard h264 file and still saw no improvement. The Project is 1080P 60 FPS and i'm rendering it with h.264. So my question is the issue my GPU? Drivers? Project? Codec? I ran a test in blender with a cycles project and the GPU works fine in there.

I'm trying to install cyanogenmod 13 on my GS4 Verizon based on the guide on the Cyanogenmod Wiki. I'm able to root the phone no problem. When I get the step to install the recovery image (twrp) via heimdall I get this string of text. Prior to rooting the device I factory reset it.

My dad's work provides him smartphones (verizon) and he got an upgrade to a GS6 and he had a GS4. I have a Moto G (2nd Gen) and realized (about 6 months after his upgrade) that his phone has support for the T-Mobile bands and has a sim card slot. This being an upgrade for me (better processor, camera, screen, 4g, nfc, 5ghz, etc) I wanted to use this phone. I have no issue with getting my sim card to work (adding the apn and changing the in-phone setting to gsm) however, the last supported version of android is 5 lollipop which I would much prefer to have android 6 for the battery life and less bloat ware (thanks touchwiz). So I did a quick google search to find that you can install cyanogenmod 13 (android 6) on the GS4! I was able to complete the task of rooting the phone, something that i'm new too. However on unlocking the boot-loader i found out (correct me if i'm wrong) that there are only workarounds for the Verizon version of the phone. So I go and attempt to install twrp through Goo-manager to discover their servers no longer work... Next attempt was with Twrp Manager and this succeeded until you reboot the phone to give you an error that the phone cannot start. I was able to avoid this by plugging in my usb cord while the phone was off and booting into android.(also got this error when attempting to boot into recovery) However this leaves us at no progress. So I seeked a less user-friendly way of installing twrp by using a program called Odin however this leaves this. On the phone is says. It has some text before that says write protection enabled but searching on google people have this and still can install things through Odin. and NO i dont have reactivation lock enabled I would like to have cyanogenmod 13 (nightly) on my GS4 but get stuck at getting twrp installed because of Verizon's security on the device.

should I get a gtx 660 as my 200$ card i need a nividia (cuda) card because i'll be rendering i'll be getting the card in December
