BR QuattroFX Exactly the same as me my friend. No Open Gl 3. And 28Fps in Cinebench. I did no kext install or dsdt.. etc.. just Graphicsenable=yes I've heard about Opengl 3.0 running in 10.6.4. Do you think its a good move go to 10.6.4 from 10.6.3? cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think its a good move go to 10.6.4 from 10.6.3? cheers Hi hugenschnauzer, It is known that the current version of Mac OS X Snow Leopard supports 22 of the 23 OpenGL 3.0 extensions: Apple seems to be gearing up for introducing full support for OpenGL 3.0. Increased graphics performance would result from the move, across Apple’s entire line of computers. Although the graphics cards used in current Macintosh computers already support OpenGL 3.0, the required software in order to take advantage of the specification is yet to be implemented in Snow Leopard, presume with 10.6.5 Update. Until then we have to live with full OpenGL 2.1 support only. I´ve allready updated to 10.6.4 without loosing on performance on my system, but I cannot tell if that will be good for you, because some people with x58 chipset reporting decrease on performance after update. Best way is to try with one Clone drive of your system. Good luck QuattroFX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitch_de Posted September 23, 2010 Author Share Posted September 23, 2010 Yep, OpenGLExtensions Viewer Bench cant run OpenGL 3.0 Test if at least one (of 23) 3.0 extensions and7or gpu hardware feature for 3.0 is missed. Didnt mean that Apple dont support 3.0 at all. Some of newer features (3.0) if used!!! in Games may speedup them by much less CPU load for doing same things with 2.0 / 1.0 OpenGL tasks. OpenGL is so much more CPU depended in Speed than DirectX. barefeats new benches of running ATI 5770 or 5870 in MacPro 2006 vs MacPro 2010 shows that much. Same GPU performs much much bad in MacPro 2006 - with games which arent cpu burner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quattrofx Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 Latest Test results after 10.6.5 update: Test results Hi Mitch_de, what do you mean, can you create one new Benchmark Topic under "Graphics Cards" for all NVidia and ATI users to be able to compare their results in order of performance?

mitch_de Posted November 17, 2010 Author Share Posted November 17, 2010 Thanks ! Would be fine if the new NV driver also makes GTX4xx woring with OpenCL ! I add the also very usable GRASS OpenCL (Code from Apple) Test . Does compute grass in the wind movings - in OpenCL. Less CPU usage (less than smallluxGPU). I get around 54 FPS with my 9600GT oldi ; Grass_OPENCL.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ksosx86. Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 My GTX 470 results compared with 5870, 5850, and 5750 1.) ATI HD 5870 with Benchmark 2.) GTX 470 with Benchmark 3.) ATI HD 5750 without Benchmark 4.) ATI HD 5850 without Benchmark 5.) GTX 470 without Benchmark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quattrofx Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Hi KS, here are my OpenGL results: GTX285 with Benchmark: GTX285 without Benchmark: Can you post your iHack configuration, please? BR QuattroFX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitch_de Posted December 9, 2010 Author Share Posted December 9, 2010 Thanks for new benchmarks ! Try also the new King / Kings Modell. King is much more complex for the gpu - more game realistic FPS (less than Cube/Cubes). As expected GTX 285 computes much faster GRASS OpenCL as 9600 GT : 95 FPS vs 51 FPS. Any ATI (at least 4xxx, 5xxx should working OpenCL) - normaly they perform better OpenCL that NV because more compute units on the GPU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akiNikki Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 How about the Fermi card for the OpenCL benchmark? i can't make it run as it say it's not supported? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
