Poor performance out of a kick ass system
Hi guys,
my first post in this part of the forum , and I am little puzzled.
So far I only had the pleasure setting up Mac systems, now I am dealing with a PC and its the usual horror .
The thing is, this system is supposed to be really really good.
Its a GlobalStor with plenty of PSU power, 24 disks two Areca controllers and a Quadro6000 with SDI.
Its our Scratch workstation and so far its running fine.
So we bought a Quadro 600 for the main display.
I put that and use the Quadro6000 as GPU….bummer….the results are like using a Quadro4000
On CUDA Z I am getting around 1050 Gflops…as it should be.
So i now got a GTX 580 from Gainward with 3 gig to test that.
Same story .. Candle test gives me 5 !! nodes before the speed drops.
Thats 2 nodes more than the 6000 and less than I have on my Mac with 120/470 cards.So a question for the people using cross platform systems.
What to expect ?
I can clearly see the 580 is like 60% faster than the Quadro6000 , in spite of it being mentioned the other way round in the config guide.But still the performance is far from being usable in a feature production.
Could the Quadro 600 be the problem ?
We are thinking Cubix already, but first I would like to get to comparable results using on board possibilities.
So if anyone made a test with the same can in Mac AND Windows, please share.A slice of color…

Could you post the standard candle test again? been searching for that… This morning I posted a benchmark request, also in this forum. Maybe you would like to participate?
Thanks

Sure, no problem.

You dont even need to replace the footage.
Just press play, look at the numbers, press stop, change to a higher version, press play…and so on.Here my numbers from the Mac Systems I was probing and the PC I have issues with right now.

Thanks for the post. Unfortunately I think I will not be able to run the test with Resolve Lite right?
I cannot even import the project.
Thanks anyway…

edit:
Eventually I found how to open the project…
My results:
Hackintosh OSX – GTX 580 1,5GB + GTX 560 Ti 2GB – Resolve Lite 8.2.1v1: 24 fps
v2: 24 fps
v3: 24 fps
v4: 17 fpsI couldn’t test the versions with noise reduction because of the Resolve Lite limitations.

Which card is used for what operation ?

My WIN 7 results – GTX 580 1,5GB + GTX560 Ti 2GB – Resolve Lite
v1: 24 fps
v2: 24 fps
v3: 24 fps
v4: 15 fpsSo almost zero difference between OSX and WIN, just 2 fps in V4.
Sasha, I don’t completely understand your results. Are they for your mac configurations or for your win setups? I’m counting 6 setups, but just 4 testresults.

Thats because they are the same…

So, if I understand this corretly, your saying that Mac using Gt 120 and GTX 285 has an identical performance to a pc using Quadro 600 and GTX 580?

Exactly… and thats totally FU.
So maybe that Quadro 600 is the limiting factor.
Or something on the mobo, we did a fresh install, same results.Thanks for letting me know some bigger numbers are possible.
