GeForce GTX 1080 Poor Performance in Mac Pro 5,1

[tomt77033958]

Just finished installing an MSI GTX 1080 in my brother's mid-2010 Mac Pro. On 10.13.6, have latest web driver and CUDA, but Premier Pro CC is now running SLOWER than it did with his original 5870.

I've selected CUDA for GPU acceleration in Premier settings, and Web Driver is selected in nvidia Driver Manager.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Tom,

Sorry for the trouble. What is the version number of the CUDA driver?

Please check this article for best practices related to GPU acceleration: Important information on GPU-acceleration with CUDA and Apple Metal | Adobe Blog

Thanks,

Hi Vidya, drivers installed match the ones in the article, and I installed them in the order described.

Thank you,

Thanks for the reply, Tom.

Have you tried changing the renderer and check the performance? Steps: FAQ: How to change the Video Renderer in Premiere Pro?
