  Graphics card

  Posted by Dan Davis on July 1, 2011 at 2:03 pm

  Hi,

  I’m one of many color users who have now bought into Resolve 8 (picking my copy up today).
  Just a couple of questions at the moment! They may seem obvious to many of you.

  I have a Matrox MXO2 I take it that this will not work with Resolve 8 to monitor SDI to
  my Flanders Scientific. Will I have to go for the Blackmagic Extreme?
  Also will be using the Tangent Wave….is there any new software I should be downloading
  or anything else I might be missing.

  Thanks for any help.
  Danny.

  Right now you will need to get a Blackmagic card, many people are using the basic Decklink HD-Sdi card for monitoring. Otherwise you should be ok to run but consider a CUDA capable nVidia card is you want the best performance possible. The Wave just plugs in and there is a setting in Resolve to use it.

  Please download and review the Resolve for Mac OS X configuration guide. You can find it at the BMD support page and it describes the certified hardware configurations.
