I see opengl on Adobe After effects and particle illussion.



for certain, disabling opengl will slow my encodes on particle illusion. I mean really slow. a minute will take like an hour without opengl. my agp and pcie x1650 pro cannot be used on partile illussion. therefore particle illusion is dependent on gpu. After effects can be used with or without 3d and particle effects, so I'm speculating it uses both cpu and gpu.
I though ATI has its own implementation of industrial-level OpenGL that works with After Effects although it isn't as strong as nVidia's.

Seeing as you use it a lot, I'm surprised you didn't go with a better nVidia card rather than ATI.
