  Which Nvidia cards are supported by Resolve?

  Posted by Andreas Wideroe on April 27, 2011 at 6:30 am

  I think the setting up manual is outdated since I see people using 470, 480 and other boards for GUI and GPU.

  Does anyone have an updated list of which Nvidia chips are supported/will work as GUI and GPU?

  Cheers,
  Andreas

  These cards are on your own risk only. It’s not official.

  hey Mikhail, did you get a change to test the 470 on the mac ? (your report on the 480 on the hackintosh are very promising …)

  thanks

  well, my 5 cents, i am using hackintosh with a 460 for gui and gpu, and my renders in 1080p prores are more fast than real time, if you need some test tell me.

  Hi Andreas,

  The 22 December 2010 edition of the DaVinci Resolve for Mac Configuration Guide is very much up to date with all the hardware we officially support and that we know works reliably. If you are performing mission-critical work, we would recommend you stick with the officially supported hardware so we can help if anything goes wrong.

  There will be another update to the guide when Resolve 8.0 is released as it supports new hardware including GPUs from ATI.

  i am wondering …what is the criteria of having this cards flashed for mac ?
  i mean all of them can be flashed and used (like is happening for the 470/480?)

  i am asking because the new GTX590 have 1024 cuda cores !!!! and cost 750usd … (basically 4 times the power of the quadro 4000 for the same price ….

  so , how this is possible ???

  thanks

  Is there any possibility that Black Magic will release the Resolve 8 configuration guide as soon as it is available (i.e., before the release of the software). I plan to get an OpenCL card for use with Final Cut Pro X (which I believe will be released a bit before Resolve 8) and I would like to be sure to select a card that is also compatible with Resolve 8.

  Thanks,
  Kevin
