You must import the zip file, not unpack the zip file, then it works. You don’t need to replace any footage, apparently the test works without footage.

Good luck and let us know your result!

Why not have both? 🙂

Seriously now… It’s still a tough question. I had a limited budget so went the the hackintosh route, but also because I wanted to have one workstation to could handle both FCP and Resolve. For a dedicated Resolve system this might not be necessary. What I really like about the win system is the flexibility in graphic cards, which seems to be the heart of resolve. Mac has less options, plus they’re more expensive. Yes you can flash a gtx 580, but then you’ll also need extra cables, maybe even extra power supply and with the next osx update your flashed card might not work anymore.

I also put this in the debug screen:

LsManager.3.NumGPUs = 2

Might help…

Thta’s indeed weird and against expectation.

The only thing I can come up with now is to uninstall the decklink card as that one is known to act ‘funny’ on some mobo’s and in windows.

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?

My WIN 7 results – GTX 580 1,5GB + GTX560 Ti 2GB – Resolve Lite
v1: 24 fps
v2: 24 fps
v3: 24 fps
v4: 15 fps

So 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.

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.

edit:

Eventually I found how to open the project…

My results:
Hackintosh OSX – GTX 580 1,5GB + GTX 560 Ti 2GB – Resolve Lite 8.2.1

v1: 24 fps
v2: 24 fps
v3: 24 fps
v4: 17 fps

I couldn’t test the versions with noise reduction because of the Resolve Lite limitations.

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
