For changing the timeline res, go to playback and then playback res. I'd be really interested to see some 3d benchmarks. Houdini, Maya, Blender, Nuke, Fusion.

[@k.o.t.o.n.]

Try this with 3090ti sli and also 12900ks please! With undrrvolting. Overclocking. Thank you in advance! Cheers from Hungary.

[@EposVox]

You're getting some slowdown caused by something else, can't identify from here, but something is causing your H264/5 to slow down, as a normal 3090 on its own handles that without issue, as would a 2080, plenty of lower cards. Perhaps NVLink is confusing it or something. This performance in nearly every aspect is significantly worse than I get on a 3970X and Titan RTX lol so this isn't really a great measurement of the hardware itself.

[@theTechNotice]

100% agreed, and very surprising results! It just shows that more money doesn't always mean more performance. Also not all of the h.264/5 codecs I'm trying have hardware accelerated support on Resolve. A lot of them have to use software playback instead. But this is surprising to me because a 12900k setup will perform much better in 99% of the cases 😇🤔

[@k.o.t.o.n.]

[@k.o.t.o.n.]

Or just build the same setup but with 1 gpu in a mini itx cube like joat 14.9? How much sli provides and probably will with 4090-4090ti and 13900k-ks?

Hi , I like your reviews and builds. Can you please advise what you think the minimum spec machine should look like for content creation with Unreal Engine 5 at 1080p ?

[@basuotoko]

Hi @Tech Notice, The DaVinci's ui scaling has been a problem on different monitors（They are either too big or too small, or not clear.） And the font and elements in the video display normally and perfectly. Can you tell us the exact model of the monitor and the parameters of the display settings in windows (resolution, scaling)? Thank you in advance.

[@SuperhumanImagesInc]

Did you compare performance with and without the NVbridge? If memory serves, Black Magic suggest not running dual GPU's in bridge mode. Would you do a follow-up with render speeds with various codecs? Rendering is where Resolve will really stress test a system. I have almost identical system (non-linked 3090's) and the first thing that became clear was that Resolve (17) doesn't seem to be optimized to handle this much system power. It's still an amazing system but during renders I'm seeing 30-50% available CPU, GPU and hard drive (RAID) bandwidth. The system is still rendering at over 400+fps but those unused resources come with a significant price tag. My spidey-sense tells me that the 32-core Threadripper might offer similar performance at a MUCH lower price tag.

[@NarekAvetisyan]

Great video, very educational.

[@zeroize9903]

Hello, I am currently a user with two 3090 GPUs connected via NVLink. I primarily use the computer for gaming and streaming/recording. The first graphics card is dedicated to gaming, while the second one is used for streaming/recording. When it comes to video editing, I activate NVLink for the task. I'm planning to upgrade to a 4090 graphics card, and I'm curious if there will be any noticeable difference in performance. Thank you!

Hi can you build a high-end PC for programmer development?

[@PhilUKNet]

Why haven't you upgraded to 18 yet? They've already released a couple of updates and it's now very stable (the initial release of 18 wasn't). This system has an impressive spec but I get the feeling it is well beyond the point of diminishing returns. You can probably pay a lot less for only a small decrease in performance. My 12600K seems to handle DaVinci Resolve fine and I haven't even invested in a separate GPU yet.

[@NikhilKumar-nm8dd]

Would love some hardware recommendation for 3D game development and unreal engine 5. Great content for creators.

[@FinnishFox]

Don't really know where to ask but seeing that you own davinci resolve studio i'm wondering that when you buy the studio version do you get all updates onwards for free forever? Or do you need to buy the studio version everytime they update davinci resolve? Like verison 18,19,20 etc...?

[@ninpgmer8959]

I'd assume the updates are free but I could be wrong.

This is one of those great things about Davinci why people by it. I bought Davinci Resolve Studio whet it was version 16. Now It's 18. I got all updates for free, the key license numer pass all the time.

[@personaldronerepair6141]

That is an awesome rig !! You will get much better timeline performance if you will render the timeline after each resolution change. Especially when going up in resolution. I know that you are trying to keep the system at a base line but the system has to have the time perform the calculations and build the new resolutions that you have chosen for each timeline. No trying to insult. I just know how frustrating these issues can be. Trust me. Render the timeline after each, timeline resolution change. Your scrub through and playback will thank you.

I would love to see how this works with Topaz Video Enhance AI. VEAI is a beast of a program that will tax any GPU so it would be interesting to see how this PC performs perhaps with upscaling 4K video to 8K.

Basically in my personal experience it is never a dollar per dollar best results type of thing. Some components just play along better with each other even if they are not the top spec, they may just be configured in a more compatible more efficient way. Also, I want to share that the marketing from the manufacturers is never optimized in the way that it sold to us, meaning that one is best served by trying out the set ups and optimizing the settings rather than believing the main stream hype 🥸

[@MacCheetah3]

NVIDIA: "We recommend against using GeForce and Quadro cards in the same system as it may cause unpredictable results. As such this is not considered a supported configuration. 1. GeForce and Quadro cards are intended for very different usages (GeForce cards are intended for recreational usage and Quadro cards are intended for professional usage). As a result, GeForce and Quadro drivers have different features available in the NVIDIA Control Panel. If you use both GeForce and Quadro cards simultaneously, it is unpredictable which Control Panel features will be available and how they will function. 2. When using two or more NVIDIA cards in the same system, both cards need to use the same NVIDIA driver to avoid conflicts. As stated in 1 above, GeForce and Quadro drivers support different Control Panel features and it is unpredictable which features will be available and how they will function if the same driver is used for GeForce and Quadro cards."
