C4D Quick Tip: Enhanced OpenGL
Have you ever been working on a complex scene that was causing your scene to slow down and not play back in real time.
If you are using a gfx card that supports OpenGL it can be used to help accelerate your scene. To do this go to Display -> Enhanched OpenGL
The GFX card can be used to render the transparency, shadows, post effects and noise channels when you are working in your scene.

Using a Geforce card with Avid Media Composer
Well I just finished building and setting up a new computer yesterday. It was a pretty easy build only a few problems slowed me down. First the cpu was overheating which was causing the system to shut down. Second the gfx card isn't supported by Avid so we had to find a workaround. In case you are reading this and you have the same problem here are the steps that I took to get it working.
First I downgraded the video driver to 180.48
Nvidia Control Panel - Turned off Threaded Optimization and turned on Extension Limit
Using Rivatuner I changed the opengl version to 1.5
Try opening Avid now, if it doesn't work continue below
In Rivatuner reset the driver to default settings
Now change the opengl back to 1.5
Open Avid and it should be working, if not then you could always try softmodding to a Quadro card if you have the right type of geforce card.
