CUDA needs an NVIDIA driver of version 411.31 (date 2018.9.27) or later. Imaris ClearView supports CUDA and OpenCL beside CPU based processing. Multi-GPU solutions for graphics boards (SLI and Crossfire) are NOT supported. It is recommended to install and use the latest drivers specified on website(s) of the graphic board's vendor(s). Incompatible graphics boards often cause instability and lead to decreased Imaris performance. Older machines or graphics cards may not support GPU-accelerated deconvolution. All AMD cards and NVIDIA cards running older drivers will use OpenCL. NVIDIA cards with driver 411.31 or later will use CUDA for the processing. Up-to-date graphics card drivers are required for GPU-accelerated deconvolution.

Imaris Preferences will show the user the supported GPU processing mode: CUDA or OpenCL.

Please, consult your IT department before installing one of these other remote desktop solutions as there might be network restrictions in place, that prevent these tools from working properly. If your system configuration of Windows and graphics card does not support OpenGL acceleration, you can try if another remote desktop solution, like TeamViewer, Anydesk or the like, will work for you. The Quadro card driver supports OpenGL in RDP independent of the Windows version. If you are using earlier Windows 10 build (180x and earlier) or Windows 7/8 or 8.1, the only way to get Imaris working in RDP sessions is to use an nVidia Quadro M-Series or newer (e.g. There is no known way (not even with ‘ gpedit ’) to make this work. NVidias Geforce and Titan cards do not support OpenGL acceleration in RDP sessions on any Windows version (Info March 2020). The oldest AMD card we have tested successfully in with RDP is a FirePro V7900 (released in 2011). Remote Desktop session with AMD cards of any series (Radeon, RadeonPro or FirePro) will also work with the Windows build 1903 and newer.

If you are using Windows 10 Build 1903 and newer, you can use Imaris in Windows Remote Desktop session (RDP) if you have an nVidia Quadro card of at least the M-Series. Using Imaris in Windows Remote Desktop (RDP) Sessions
