Learn how to set up an optimized environment for Adobe Creative Cloud and After Effects on an AWS EC2 instance equipped with powerful NVIDIA GPUs. Explore two different methods:

1) Manual Setup: Launch a standard Windows Server instance and manually install NVIDIA GRID drivers, giving you full control over the configuration.
2) Pre-configured AMI: For a quicker and simpler setup, utilize the pre-configured NVIDIA RTX Virtual Workstation AMI, which comes with the necessary drivers pre-installed, eliminating the need for manual installations.

These methods are designed to address the needs of users who require advanced graphics processing capabilities without the investment in high-end local hardware.
