Activity Forums DaVinci Resolve Not seeing NR

  • Not seeing NR

    Posted by Oliver Peters on November 24, 2011 at 6:32 pm

    Resolve 8.1.1 (full version) with only the ATI 5870 card. I see no change in video when I adjust the NR controls. They seem to have no effect whatsoever. Is this function dependent on having an NVIDIA (CUDA-enabled) card in the system? I am viewing the image on the SDI output from a Decklink card.

    From my understanding, you do need a CUDA card for noise reduction in Resolve.

    Thanks. Yes, I just tested with a loaner Quadro 4000 and the NR takes effect.

    I recently took a variety of cards to Jake Blackstone and we tested NR speed.

    The King was GTX480. The GTX470 was 2nd best IIRC.

    The GTX285 and Quadro 4000 were quite a bit back in the field.

    For a variety of reasons that I fully understand, nobody from BMD can tell you that my cards are best for their software. (Most especially for NR)

    But I am equally certain that they will not come and tell you that they AREN’T the fastest ones with their software.

    The only “officially recommended” card currently available is the Quadro 4000 starting at $800 . Or, for less than half of that you can get a GTX470 from MacVidCards that will run rings around it.

    If the recent rumors of a return to Nvidia GPUs are true, things might get better for CUDA soon.

    Too much hassle..
    For now the 470 is best…far better than the 4000 for sure.
    If Apple relly brings nVidia back into the boat…hooray.
    If not, power users will move to MS anyway.
