Just got my hand on a K5000 for Mac
Put in in a MP 4,1 (2×2,26) happily married with a ioFX on 10.8.3 and a fresh Smoke on Mac 2013 install

There’s nothing we can’t argue about on the FCPX COW Forum

I spoke to nvidia today about this new k5000 vs quadro 4000….I am using CS6 with After Effects, Photoshop, some Premiere, but I am a FCP X user and recently acquired Davinci Resolve. I run a dual 8 core Mac Pro 2.26 with 16gb of ram with a ATI 4870, I desperately want to know real world results of this card with FCP X and Resolve…I know it will do wonders already with the Mercury playback engine for CS6…please let us know of any improvement especially with Final Cut Pro X, I feel like my projects drag when I have programs and plugins like Neat Video’s Reduce Noise that need Open CL support.
