    Sadly he didn’t include a Resolve test this time, but you can use the CUDA scores to get an idea. 1 Titan = 2 @ 680. Helps cut down on cards needed.

    580 vs 680 for GUI?

    Wow, I doubt you will notice a huge difference, but you will probably find 580 a touch faster. The one we sell for internal power use has been detuned a bit from the ones Rob tests (He tests the “Classified” version)

    Joseph, how is that Titan working out in your Mac? By “running natively”, do you mean without the EFI mod, or native OSx drivers, or…? What kind of pros/cons have you experienced? I’m thinking about jumping to the Titan as well, but a little concerned that I may be pushing the boundaries of reliability for a studio machine.

    Thanks –

    Yes, 2-4 Titans per Xpander Desktop unit depending upon Xpander model. Also, since there’s less power draw then a GTX 690, no need for upgraded power supply (1200W runs about $300+ less expensive than the 1500W models)

    Hey David, do you offer flashing services for ATI cards?

    I found the Macvidcards ebay store. https://www.ebay.com/usr/macvidcards

    Follow up question would be is this still safe power-wise in a system running a Red Rocket, Black magic Decklink and Fiber network card? I wasn’t sure if everything added up or if the 6-pin power connectors were totally separate. Just want to be sure. Thanks. 🙂

    Hey Folks,

    The FSP Group drive bay power supply is no longer.available. Anybody find another good one? The only other one I found is only 220w or so.

    Thanks in advance,
    Robert A. Ober
