    Hi Daniel – I’ve build this system – https://nofilmschool.com/build-a-hackintosh/ (with exeption of nvidia 480 – I’ve bought EVGA pc version, but actually it doesn’t matter – it could be zotac, pny, pov or anything else)
    but with i7 it’s slower than 2 x xeon mac pro systems. I’m looking forward when 2 procs hackintosh systems will be available.

    The main reason going hackintosh way actually was bad apple service at russia – when my mac pro system board got dead (warranty was on) – it took 45 days to replace – so I prefer systems which let me replace anything in 2 hours.

    Next step will be putting second 480 card – Gigabyte UD5 motherboard allows it. I will report the results.

    Hi, Michaill

    Same problems here in Brazil.

    You could try a single i7980x (6 cores) and OC it to 4Gz.

    I think it would give quite a speed bump.

    I heard on the Davinci Reduser forum about a similar setup.

    I’m curious about the one graphics card setup with two monitors.

    Wouldn’t a cheaper GT card for GUI work for that, releasing the gtx480 just for the nodes ptocessing?

    I see the UD5 has only 4 Pcie with two gtx480 and a decklink I guess you’re out of slots. A 1 slot GUI card would make more sence IMHO.

    When it comes to final render out to compressed file formats the CPU power is what counts. BM does a great job of utilizing every multicore on a 12 core Mac Pro. I doubt your render out speeds would increase significantly without making an upgrade to a 12 core. Currently at “1/2 resolution good” WITHOUT a RED rocket card.. I’m getting 18fps out to Apple Pro Res 4444. The original source media is RED 4k. I’m getting such good realtime debayers and renders on a 12 core that I doubt I need a RED Rocket Card. I have a full report posted here:
