    Sorry to be a party pooper, but can you take the hackintosh discussion to another place and not hijack the Mavericks thread, please ?
    Thank you…

    I’m running a MacVidCards GTX 570 on a Mid 2010 Mac Pro. Under 10.8 Resolve 9 and 10 b3 both run fine. Under 10.9 there’s significant lag between making an adjustment and seeing the changes in the preview window and scopes. Is this related to the performance issue thats been mentioned? (ie what Autodesk is warning about)

    I’m back on 10.8 for now until I find out what the issue is that I’m having.

    I’m running Nvidia Quadro FX 4800 in my Mac OS 10.9 and Cuda has gone by-by. I’m waiting for Nvidia to provide a new driver for 10.9

    Yeah, I am waiting for a week now .. luckily I have no clients who need real time playback 😉
    Funny enough, rendering speed is not affected, just playback.
    There must be some trouble with the audio/video engine in Mavericks.
    I cant even playback a simple 720×576 ProRes in resolve right now.

    Update…

    It seems the problem is the audio part of the Decklink Extreme card.
    If I am using DPX files I have no problems…
    Only QT files with audio embedded or wav files loaded into Resolve will cause severe stuttering .
    Also any kind of video playback through the card gives the same problems.
    Vimeo, Youtube, QT….you name it.
    If I am using the optical it works just fine…
    I doubt this is an nVidia issue.

    My second monitor has been having issues as well.

    Or in other words, deactivating ENABLE AUDIO brings back the full performance.

    Its the Decklink…its not Resolve…
    The audio/ video functionality is definitely broken in 10.9.0
    I also tried the new Desktop Video installer and its the same in Media Express

    Guys, I do not understand why more people are not taking this to support with NVIDIA, Apple and Blackmagic! The issues are: no CUDA at all for GTX285 and below! After calling, spending hours waiting, emailing and chatting on tech support, both NVIDIA and Apple give me conflicting answers: NVIDIA says it is an Apple issue and APPLE says NVIDIA has to make another driver. NVIDIA then says drivers are included in OS10.9

    I understand the run-around because perhaps I was only talking with mid-level techs who don’t understand their own company or products :/

    However, at least I have been proactive in contacting these companies. I talked with Blackmagic and asked if they would make NVIDIA / Apple aware – they are getting back with me.

    Again, what I found out was that both NVIDIA and Apple said they were unaware of ANY issue.

    I suggest we make this an issue unless all of us want to chuck out our GTX285’s as scrap plastic parts. And sitting around for 10.9.1 won’t necessarily mean CUDA support is fixed – only unless we act on it.

    PS: Adobe doesn’t care unless you say you have Premiere CC because they’ll just tell you “oh, we don’t even support the GTX 285 on CS 5 or 6” which is just political because we all know how to go into that txt file and insert our GPU for Mercury Engine.

    So the Nvidia Quadro FX 4800 Cuda Accelerator feature in my Mac doesn’t work after installing OS 10.9 and it’s not the fault of Apple, Adobe or Nvidia. Okay, I’m out $1500.00 and I guess I just have to chalk it up to experience but I will be very wary about any future dealings with those jokers.
