![]() I felt performance in Premiere Pro and FCPX was adequate with the 1080TI for my needs right now, but if the Vega FE gave me similar performance in Resolve and Premiere Pro, but better in FCPX I'd take it. I know noise reduction can make that difficult/impossible with a lot of high resolution footage, but I need the Resolve performance to be as high as I can get it. The thing is, DaVinci Resolve is significantly more important for me right now and realtime playback is very important whenever I can get it. My test was done with actual grades and noise reduction as would be done realistically in a real world scenario. However, his testing I think was unrealistic because all he did was add dozens of nodes. Part of the reason I decided to give the Vega FE a shot was because of a YouTube video I watched that benchmarked a Vega 64 against a 1080TI in Resolve, and the Vega 64 sort of won. But OpenCL was better than Metal in Premiere Pro when working with 4K ProRes files and R3D files, but they were dead even on GH5 footage and 2K ProRes files. My initial test when I first popped the Vega FE in did show that Metal was better than OpenCL in DaVinci Resolve. I've been rendering a project in Premiere Pro all night last night and all day today, so I haven't had a chance to do my full benchmarking test to completely compare to the 1080TI. Yes, I do still need to test it with FCPX. I like CUDA a lot and was using it everywhere including 3d render engines like Octane (which only supports CUDA). ![]() It's just sad that they won't allow us to use CUDA or OpenCL based cards from different brands on an OS that advertises itself as a productivity center. Don't quote me on this but I think that's what will happen.Īlso Metal in Premiere is trash, just stick to OpenCL. Afaik it supports dual GPUs so that should get you better performance than a single 1080Ti via CUDA. If you truly are in Resolve a lot I recommend you get a second Vega FE. If you want to truly see what Vega FE can do fire up FCPX and you'll see how fast it is. Vega FE is a very capable card in terms of compute power, it's just the applications you're using don't take advantage of it's OpenCL capabilities to the maximum and Metal 2 support is pretty much non existent in those applications. Resolve should get better overtime that is if they start using Metal instead of OpenCL which is more low level and closer to CUDA if properly implemented.įor me, I was happy with Sierra but once I built a iMac Pro clone I had to kind of move to High Sierra so I moved over to AMD. OpenCL is miles behind CUDA and Metal is nowhere near either one for anything besides FCPX. If you truly want and really need CUDA I recommend you go back to Sierra 10.12.6 and keep your 1080Ti and use proper WebDrivers. This was my headache I had to live with when I moved from nVidia. ![]() How would I know and how would I flash it back to stock if it was flashed? Wondering if it had been flashed to underclock it. Is there a way to flash the BIOS for overclocking or underclocking? I did buy used from a miner. I could accept a frame or 2 difference, but not half to third of the speed. ![]() I was hoping that OpenCL and Metal with the Vega FE would be much closer in performance to the CUDA of the 1080TI. I haven't tested Adobe Media Encoder, FCPX, or Compressor yet. Premiere Pro seems to be better with OpenCL than Metal, and Resolve seems to be better with Metal than OpenCL. With the 1080TI I get 10-14fps depending on the media, but with the Vega FE I get 2-10fps depending on the media and whether I'm using OpenCL or Metal. I tested with 4 different kinds of media, graded and with noise reduction. I was hoping to get at least similar performance along with it being better overall for MacOS, but performance in DaVinci Resolve is half what I was getting with the 1080TI. I don't understand why it's not documented anywhere at all. Thanks for the explanation of the switch. Building a CustoMac Hackintosh: Buyer's Guide
