  Resolve Configs

  Posted by Gerard Cummings on November 28, 2012 at 5:10 pm

  Hello,

  I am preparing to build out a Resolve station and wanted to know which would be better in terms of proc speed. A new high end Mac Mini or Mac Pro?

  For the Mac mini, I am thinking of using this to handle the additional PCI cards:

  or

  For the Mac Pro, this in terms of additional PCI cards

  Thanks.

  Thanks.

  First off this should be in Basics and Config forum.

  Secondly the Mac Mini has a Intel HD4000 GPU and cannot run Resolve at all,and OSX does not support GPUs attached to thunderbolt.

  So get the Mac-Pro.

  Please refer to the Resolve config guide which details how to build a Resolve system.
