    Hi there,

    back to benchmarking I say !
    I refined the project so it contains predefined versions to test and play around with. Again, import the project, relink the clip from the installer and you should be good to go. Change the version number in pause mode, press play and watch the performance.

    Version 1-4 contain grading nodes with soft windows and blur/sharpening.
    Version 5-8 do only noise reduction on levels 4-1.

    Here is the link : https://www.yousendit.com/download/MFo1Z284ckkwMEd4dnc9PQ
    Valid until 17th of July

    Here are my results :

    V1 2 nodes : 24 fps
    V2 4 nodes : 24 fps
    V3 6 nodes : 17 fps
    V4 12 nodes : 9 fps
    V5 NR 4 : 24 fps
    V6 NR 4 : 14 fps
    V7 NR 4 : 7 fps
    V8 NR 4 : 2 fps

    I pretty much have the exact same system, and those are pretty much the results I get.

    The big thing just seems to be the amount of CUDA cores. Which frustrates me because…

    Gtx285 – 240 cuda cores – ~400 bux
    Quadro 4000 – 256 cuda – ~850 bux
    Gtx 590 (not compatible with macs) 1024 Cuda cores – 700 bux

    Not that I’m bitter.

    Seriously though, it’s sad that hackintoshes are the cheapest way to get the best performance. But with my recent positive experiences with windows 7 and cs5.5… I’m starting to hope for windows version of resolve…

    The question is, how many cores per card are supported by Resolve and by OSX.
    I am hoping for some Hackintosh friends and patched 460 cards to share results too.
    I have a suspicion its not only cores that matter.

    I have a macpro 12 cores too, but I prefer to use this config because the performance is a lot better than macpro… some headaches in the installation, but when all is working ok, its like a macpro.

    I recommend a room for the computer if you always use NR, because the graphics card are noisier and hotter.

    That looks like my future configuration then.
    Your patched 470 performs like a Dual 4000 Cubix it seems, well done 🙂

    [Ian de Brí] “That’s one Q4000 for ya!

    I’m pretty disappointed in the Quadro 4000 especially for the price. I am tempted to get two GTX470s for the Cubix and see what happens.
