I don’t see them phasing out non-thunderbolt adapters… There are plenty of people who prefer pci-e expansion on other platforms.

Have you tried exporting reference frames to see if there is a quantifiable color shift somewhere in your color pipe?

The Clevo is NIIIIICE! I spec’d a fully loaded one out at almost 6K! Time to start saving those Pennies… Have been happy with the Lenovo though, at a MUCH cheaper price. I had a hard time trying to decide which was better: Thunderbolt or dual GPUs when making my original purchase. (Asus vs Lenovo) The Clevo would solve that issue at a much higher price.

I like these:
15″ & 17″ Asus series w/ Thunderbolt + RAID options, w/ NVIDIA GPU.

I think that NR won’ be an option with Open-CL at this point, right? It looks to me like any expansion at this point is going to be very expensive with this type of setup, as everything is going to require a new TB enclosure and power supply.

Resolve on Macbook Air… Maybe…? If it’s using Intel graphics, probably not without some code tweaking by BMD. Did they announce the specs? Only caught the mac pro part of the live stream.

Haha… Beat me to it. Not that impressed at this point.

Using an ASUS P9X79 WS Mobo for my PC Config. (Also have a Mac Pro w/ 210+570) You can disable SLI in the NVIDIA settings, and resolve does see all three GPUs. Honestly, you could just pull the link cable, but I like to leave it on so I can game on it occasionally. Thank God NVIDIA added the ability to disable SLI in software! At work we run Linux resolve with the 8 GPU expander attached to the Super Micro chassis, so no help there. I’m guessing that that specific motherboard & PSU can’t handle more than two GPUs reliably. Only trying to point out that if going the DIY route that it is possible to run a stable 3 GPU system.
Agree with Juan that simply counting CUDA cores is not a gauge of performance. Would an AMD 4 core vs Intel 4 core CPU comparison at identical clocks yield equal performance? Nope! There is a reason why 580’s still compare favorably to the current gen NVIDIA gaming GPUs in CUDA performance even though they have far fewer CUDA cores: Focus on gaming performance over compute when engineering the new GPUs. I Understand the reasoning (More people use their products to play games than compute), and it just validates what Juan is saying.

I’ve been running 3 GTX 580s + Decklink card in a single Windows 7 system/chasis for a year or so without issue. Running a beefy PSU, and huge case though. Cooling, configuration and noise can definitely be issues, but if addressed much more affordable than an expansion chasis.
