Actual Benchmarks on GTX 680’s in Resolve?
About to finally pull the trigger and build a new Windows workstation for Resolve. Before I go scrape the Internet of it’s leftover new GTX 580’s with 3GBs of RAM, I would like to see if anyone has some actual numbers and benchmarks of the 680s in Resolve? I know the Keplers havn’t been holding their own in CUDA and computational performance but by how much in real world use? Resolve, CS6, C4D,etc.. There are 4GB versions of the 680s about to hit and even a dual 680 GPU card with 8GBs from Asus later this year. Would love to hear or see any real numbers and not just Cinebench scores.

Lots of Cuda cores and big memory plus a PCIe V3 bus but does anyone outside of the celebrity gaming community even own one yet? Do you need to do allot of work at 4K in real time? I have 3 x GTX-285 and can do just about anything in 2K that anybody would ever want.

Yeah the bulk of my work is in either two extremes, 1080 or 4K these days. My main client has both a Scarlet and an Epic and several of my short film clients like to ask for 4K masters.
The 680 2GB cards are easy to come by. The 690 is near impossible and the 4GB 680s and the 8GB dual 680 have yet to be released. But rumor has it even with all those cuda cores and bandwidth they still get trounced computationally by 580s. However I would love to know how the current 680’s work in Resolve before buying old 580s that are already End of Life.

here you have relative results.
maybe this helps you.

Thanks Margus. I had noticed that chart but for some reason didn’t catch the 680 on there at first glance. Sadly not actual Resolve numbers….but the results seem to ring true as to what I have been hearing. The 600 Keplers just can’t seem to hold up to the 500 Fermis in computational tasks. Love to see any other similar results if anyone knows of any? Been watching 2 GTX 580 3GB cards that I might snag up tomorrow or Friday if I can confirm this is truly the case.

for now to me 680 seems like 4000 used to be with nice numbers but not so great performance compared to 285.
it is like cut down version of 580 despite the numbers on paper.
i may be wrong but this is the feeling i get by different posts here.

I would agree…seems to be the case.

I just got a set of GTX480’s for a second machine based on that chart, seems like the newer cards would only really be a necessity for the larger amounts of GPU Ram for 4k work.

Speaking of benchmarks does anyone have any idea where a GTX 570 would slot in?

The results from After Effects are not representative of performance you’ll get with Resolve.
We are running extensive tests with the 680 cards, and we hope to have some guidance on this soon. It’s looking good so far!

Pretty much on par with a 480.
