DaVinci Resolve “Asus P8Z77-V PREMIUM” certified?

[Dan Moran]

There is so many motherboards coming out every week that it would be impossible for the guys at BMD to test them all. A good way of thinking is have a look at the configuration guide on the website and if the board has similar specs to a recommended one and is a good manufacturer like ASUS etc… you should have no problems.

I just built a system with that motherboard and I have a GTX580 3gb card installed. I am using a Apple Thunderbolt display through the thunderbolt port for my main display. I am having a message pop up saying the display GPU is also used for image processing. This motherboard comes with a software called Virtual MVP that is suppose to let you switch between the integrated graphics and the GPU. I thought it was causing issues with Adobe CS6 so I un installed it and it hasn’t seemed to help. So far I think Resolve is just seeing the integrated graphics instead of using the GPU for processing. I would like to get setup where the integrated graphics is doing all the GUI rendering and the GPU is doing all the horsepower on the color grading and rendering.

I got it all to work now. I disabled the Virtu MVP since Resolve doesn’t like anything else trying to use the GPU card. I also installed 296.10 driver. Anything later or earlier didn’t work for me. It seems to be working like a champ now.
