Re: [Nuke-users] OT: iMac with 5K retina display worth it?
Thanks for the info, I had thought as much. That pretty much disqualifies the 5k one for me. I prefer a fast 2k display :) On 15/02/15 8:18 pm, Marten Blumen wrote: AMD on OsX is currently specific for the trash-can Mac for GPU acceleration. i.e. an AMD 7950 card won't give GPU acceleration.

I think you would be better off with an entry level Mac Pro or if you can stretch the 6 core with the 500 series card. Once the dual GPU kick in on the Mac Pro it will handily beat any iMac. _ fe...@earthlink.net www.feli-digiorgio.squarespace.com (New Website) ___ Nuke-users mailing list Nuke-users@support.thefoundry.co.uk, http://forums.thefoundry.co.uk/ http://support.thefoundry.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nuke-users

iMac's can be very fast, the main caveat is when you need to replace the hard drive, it gets a bit crazy, or costly with a repair shop. 27-inch iMac (2012-2013) Hard Drive Installation Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWyJxnBM-QUfeature=ivsrc_vid=K1ls-WoQSlsannotation_id=annotation_2909923927 On 16 February 2015 at 09:06, Feli fe...@earthlink.net wrote: I think you would be better off with an entry level Mac Pro or if you can stretch the 6 core with the 500 series card.

[Nuke-users] OT: iMac with 5K retina display worth it?
Hi all, sorry for the OT but I was wondering if anybody has had any experience running Nuke (or Hiero) on a new iMac with 5k retina display? I'm a bit suspicious about the whole 5k monitor hype, and seeing the one without retina display comes with a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M, while the 5K retina model comes with an AMD Radeon, I'm wondering if the latter would even get GPU support in Nuke? Any info would be much appreciated!

We have a bunch of them. They work great, but haven’t used Studio (or Hiero) but I don’t think you get GPU support in X. I can check later.

AMD on OsX is currently specific for the trash-can Mac for GPU acceleration. i.e. an AMD 7950 card won't give GPU acceleration. A request has been made for more AMD acceleration support.
