Resolve v9 general lag

[Eric Johnson]

If the iMac experience was as good as the Mac Pro experience in Resolve, do you think anyone would spend the difference? The system is only as strong it’s weakest link. Compare the iMac GFX card to the nVidia 5770, base Mac Pro GFX card and your question will be answered (that card by the way, is not even close to recommended for use as a GUI/GPU card). Not all systems are created equal. I could, if I were so inclined, run FCP 7 on a minimum spec machine and it would “run”, but it would not compare to an FCP 7 bay set up as an Online/Finishing machine.

I know you mean good, I can tell.

But for me the primary function of the resolve is the 3way/curves controls, they are very basic controls and should work without lag Period, especially with a fully loaded IMAC. FCPX, Baselight, Nuke, AE, PS, an any other solid application/plugin do it with no lag. Even the old Shake and Apple Color have no lag on my system.

PLEASE NOTICE I am not having any problem with the power windows/tracker/HD playback/rendering/Galery, only the 3way/curves lag and cursor bugs.
