Hello there,
I'm trying to understand a strange Performance-Problem with macOS and Final Cut Pro X.
I've build myself a Hackintosh with a i7-8700K, 32GB DDR4-2933, RX Vega 56 OC with both iGPU and the Vega enabled (BruceX 11 - 13 seconds) and so far everything works fine.
But, I immediately recognized that the general Timeline (Skimming-)Performance and Playback of non-transcoded 4K-Footage is quite laggy, especially compared to a normal 27" 5K iMac with RX 570 / RX 580.
So i went to an Apple-Store with my SD-Card and tested the Timeline performance on
1. An iMac Pro with the 8-Core Xeon, 32GB Ram and the Vega 56
2. An 27" iMac with 4-Core i5, 16GB Ram and RX 570
On the iMac Pro performance was exactly the same as on my hackintosh, but the weaker, normal iMac handled the Timeline Skimming much better!
Is this iGPU related? Are the Drivers for the RX 570 / RX 580 better than the drivers for Vega?
Please share your thoughts.
