Mac Pro 2010 with ATI Radeon 5870 and Nvidia Quadro 4000

Did you install the latest CUDA driver?

[Kelly Chen] "Should I change the Quadro into slot 1? Would this effect other programs like DaVinci Resolve?"

that would enable it to work with premiere, but then DaVinci won't use it
for acceleration.


annoying yes, but the way it is unfortunately.

Hello,

recently in a magazine I read CS5.5 had been tested on a so-called 'Nvidia Maximus' system,
which is a Windows PC with a Quadro2000 + Tesla C2075.

Would be interesting to know if this means we could simply add CUDA-boards as we like,
and the more CUDA boards the better the Mercury performance will be (like in Resolve)?

Or is 'Maximus' a method making two specific boards appear as one CUDA-unit,
so no additional performance for us here on OSX?

Best regards,
Bernhard

Hi Vince,

Not a single problem. Runs like a charm. 24-7.

How did you get the ATI Radeon 5870 to work with the Quadro 4000 in your Mac Pro 2010? Thanks

Thanks so much! I don't know why that information was so hard to find! I'll grab one of these splitter cables then. Is there anything else I should know about hooking up this card and splitter before I go ripping into my machine?
