Absolute timings

Hi.  I'm not sure about the term (absolute) (I'm far from beeing fluent in English) I'm trying to optimize some GPU code, using GPA to test the results. Especially on a subset of the whole frame : [A] 1 quad (simple VS using VertexID to generate 3 vertices to draw a quad [using Scissor to render only the quad]) with some computations in PS (1 RT) [B] 1 rendering (dummy VS, complex GS [using PrimitiveID as input] reading the previous quad, simple PS rendering the generated triangles) I was surprised that each time I benchmark the code, GPA reported noticable timings differences.

Frame capture fails with "Invalid Parameters"

Hello,

I am having problems getting a frame capture with the version 2012 R3 (12.3.174307).

The HUD appears fine while the app is running but when I attempt a frame capture it says "Invalid Parameters" and "Capture Failed" underneath that. All of the tests (2x2 Texture, Simple Pixel Shader, etc) seem to work fine. Other applications seem to capture fine for me.

OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 64-bit

Video Card: Nvidia GeForce GTX 580 (8.17.13.142)

Thank you in advance for any help.

Draw Calls

Using the R3 version of GPA, is it possible to trace and record in a file Draw Calls through time as the graphical application I am testing is executing? My test system uses a Core i7 model 920 and an AMD/ATI HD 6990 in CrossfireX mode.

Intel GPA cannot create frame capture file on Nvidia GTX460

I tried to analyze the rendering of Skyrim with intel GPA's frame
cpature(Ctrl+Shift+C),but i found it only worked in the starup menu,when
i entered the scene, it showed 'Unsupported D3DFORMAT: 0x5343564e', my
system is this:
OS:Win73 32bit
CPU:E8400
GPU:Nvidia GTX460

Error Log: [TAL][WIN pid=4084][ 90c] Unsupported D3DFORMAT: 0x5343564e

it was my first time to ues intel GPA ,does this tool work correctly with AIT or nvidia ' grapics card???
