Resolve 9.1 10 to 8bit monitoring issue.
Hi there.
I’ve upgraded to 9.1 and now when switching from 10 bit to 8 bit, monitoring shows full scaled video out when paused. While playing it works fine. I like monitoring in 8 bit to get the extra 2 or 3 frames playback speed when I have a lot of nodes, specially when adding mattes and grain.
Did anyone else experienced this behavior?

Hi.
I see you have 4000 as gui
I’d change that if possible.
Then you would not have to bother with this 8 bit stuff.—

GT120 is ui by the looks. 4000 GPU.
-
yes but 4000 is insanely weak.

True. But its not what he’s using for Ui.

120 for gui and 4000 for gpu.
it would be not to expensive to get lets say 285 or 470 and have 10 bit running smoothly.
i myself would go 6xx seres.
yes one could maybe go and see 8 bit but it does not help as much as swapping gpu
is just my point.—

Yeah dump the 4000 as GPU and get a 580 at least, I think you could then use the 4000 as a GUI card. Correct me if I am wrong but I think there is enough power in the Mac-Pro for this, your machine will be allot more powerful with the newer GPU.

Thank you all for the kind suggestions.
And I know I should put more ram in it, as it only has 8g.
But tha’s not the issue here as this is not my machine, and please note that the specs are still within BM recommendations. Yesterday it was working pretty well and today its not. I mean, not the 8 bit part anyway.

No, for 580 you’d need an external power supply. I’d recommend 570 with no external PS.

No, an external power supply is not necessary. You do, however, need an adapter cable.

The statement above is based on the information provided by David Pirinelli from MacVidCards, who knows a thing or two about GPUs and their power requirements. If that is not enough, in addition to GT 120 I use GTX 570 and it is just barely works. Once in a while, when 570 is pushed extra hard, the power for the extra GPU exceeds the power envelop of a Mac tower and the system just shuts down. I would strongly advise against using GTX 580 without an additional external power supply.
