Just went through this same issue. I had a MSI 260GTX that just wouldn't work at all with PD13 under Windows 10 without rendered videos having a terrible stuttering problem and freezing of the preview screen during rendering. I replaced it yesterday with a EVGA 960GTX and preliminary results are satifactory so far. I'd take Cyberlink's minimum hardware requirements with a grain of salt as they appear to be written by the marketing department and have no real bearing on whether PD13 will function normally.

Installed the EVGA GTX960 last night and it made a huge difference in rendering time. I didn't have alot of time to fully exercise PD13 but I did a quick render of a short 1080P file that was jittery and stuttered during playback before the new video card and results were excellent. Rendering time dropped by 75% and there was no noticable stuttering during playback so I'm optimistic about this upgrade being a solid solution

I'm runniing an older nvidia graphics card (GTX260) which appears to be an issue with PD13 according to this forum. No mention on the minimum requirements on the package though. I'll be installing a EVGA GTX960 today but I believe Windows 10 is the issue, again software claims compatibility but is concidered an issue AFTER you purchase it. Kind of like advertising a car having great acceleration then explaining to the buyer AFTER purchase you meant only down hill with a tail wind. I know no software supplier can claim full compatibility across the board but come on this compatability claim with windows 10 is a stretch in my opinion and so are the software's minimum hardware requirements.

32gb of memory!!! Wow I guess the minimum requirements for PD13 are sort of meaningless.

Unfortunately you are right and Cyberlink is not alone in doing this. Software developers have decided that customers should do the beta testing and pay for the privledge and thats why there is seldom any refund guarentee even if the software doesn't work at all!! I expect within the next few months and many patches this software will start to do what they advertise for the masses or they may just release version 14 and get us to hopefully pay for the bug fixes.

So far I've struck out with this software. I tried running this on my primary system and the end result is jerky videos regardless how I produce them . The finished videos show speed variations when playing back yet the orginal material before editting plays flawlessly. I tried installing PowerDirector 13 on my laptop also runnning Windows 10 and it just bombed and aborted during the install. At least for me I have to say this software is NOT compatible with Window 10 even with the latest patches
