Does 32GB of Ram Decrease Performance for Resolve…?!

[Luke Maslen]

Hi Ryan,

The preference for 6, 12 or 24 GB of RAM only applies to the 2009 and 2010 models of Mac Pro. Please download the latest DaVinci Resolve for Mac Configuration Guide and you’ll see that the Early 2008 Mac Pro series can use 8 GB or more RAM. In other words, 32 GB of RAM will be fantastic for your Early 2008 Mac Pro.

The October 2010 edition of this guide also provides some additional information specific to the Early 2008 Mac Pro.

Luke-

Thanks for the reply! I just downloaded the configuration guide last night(Aug. 30th config. guide)and I see it has been updated(Oct. 6th config. guide). I now see the updated specs for the MacPro 2008 models! =)

The new updated configuration guide is very helpful!

Hey Luke-

I was actually just reading through the latest Oct. 6th DaVinci Resolve Configuration Guide!

I have to say you guys are amazing. I’ve gotten so much attention getting questions in emails answered, the help and support so far is top notch! I really hope this is the norm because it’s definitely going to bring you a lot of new customers…and keep them very satisfied with your customer service!

I’ll let you know if I come across something I feel would be useful in the guide.

My best!
