Hi Danny, I’d love to check how this performs on my machine. Not terribly powerful, but I’ve got 2 GTX 260s that are succefully running in AE. Can you send me the benchmark?

Thanks!

In reply to rendernyc. It was harder than expected to run on Lion, but i managed to do it by booting with npci=x2000 PCIRootUID=0 and GraphicsEnabler=No flags, then just updated to the latest Nvidia driver and CUDA 5.037. Got similar results but system felt a bit unstable so that is why I decided to just start a new HD from scratch with Mountain Lion, since it has built in support for the 6xx series. Either way I still had to keep the PCIRootUID=0 and GraphicsEnabler=No on my boot plist, since those are required for Asus boards with Nvidia cards, and no graphics enabled for the 6xx series...

In reply to Peter. Yup. No official Mac support yet. Hopefully with the new iMacs getting 6XX cards someone sill ship a Mac version of one of these cards. I'm hoping to test out a 690 in my macpro next week

ok, my bad.
So the GTX 670 just got into the supported card list on the newer updates of CS6.
Thx for the fast reply.

In reply to Peter. The 670 results are both pretty new I haven't seen any speed changes in the raytracer over any updates yet

Hey,

could someone please test the Kepler Cards like the GTX 670 again with the latest update of CS6? There was a useful update in October 2012.

Thanks a lot, Pete
