GTX 980 ti nowhere near as fast in OSX

I just finished setting up my machine and did a bunch of testing the hardware with a fresh install of windows 10.

I got much better performance with windows 10 than I do in osx with the brand new nvidia web drivers.

The card is gtx 980 TI FTW with 6gb vram with same motherboard, ram, SSD, etc.

I have one result that is 126fps on the mac but that is as fast as I can get it without overclocking the graphics (not something I know how to do on a mac)

It does say in system profiler that I have ZERO MB of ram on the video card. Is this normal?

0MB is not normal and 99% of the time it means that you have Nvidia injection turned on when you shouldn't.

Thanks, fixed that one but now the cinebench scores dropped even more to around 119fps.

hmm thats lower than my gtx970, with same cpu, only 32gb 2600mem im getting ~121fps

not thrilled about the graphics card in this machine. I think the extra vram in there will really help with video work but its not even comparable to the performance in windows 10.

Bumped up the overclock and got an amazing geekbench result. need to switch it back to windows and do some stress testing tonight

this single core result is amazing
