Default Re: Graphics bug, OSX, PT 12.7.1

For any of this thread to be useful specific cards, flashing, OS need to be considered.
Pro Tools 12.7.1 HD
OS 10.12.5
Nvidia 1080 8 gb Pascal (MacVideo Cards flashed) driving 3 displays.

Pro Tools is fat in graphic needs.
I thought that adding the "Mac Edition" Sapphire 7950 was upping the game enough.
Since I'm an HDX user Power consumption is a concern.

I began my Nvidia test after the Pascal drivers were released. My first choice was the Nvidia P4000 (Best power relationship) but no-one is flashing Quadro and this is an important issue for me. (Testing and building Mac Systems for Pro Tools)

The 1080 pascal with 8GB DDR5 toped out my power spec utilizing Both PCIe power connectors into an 8Pin on the card. (Taped the HDX from PCIe power port #2)

The Sapphire Mac Edition definitely responded and drove my 3 displays very well except for Pro Tools playback errors.

Although the Nvidia has surprised me that edit sessions and VI creation session no longer throw these errors.

This Video Code needs to be leaner.

My Point of view

New graphics cards definitely eliminated cpu errors for me.
