OS X 10.8.3 and NVIDIA 6xx OpenCL Benchmarks

Cool, it makes sense. I hope we can get a GPU and CPU load monitor soon some some one.

i7 2600K
GTX 670
GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3

Thanks for the info.

The Luxmark benchmark tool is optimized for ATI/AMD GPUs, If you would like to try a OpenCL Benchmark tool thats optimized for NVidia card check out Oceanwave Bandwidth Bench 1.6.1

You will never get an accurate score with Luxmark 2.0 with an NVidia card.

Unigine also has a great collection of benchmarks http://unigine.com/products/benchmarks/ . I've used Heaven in the past and will be trying Valley soon.

Yes Unigine makes great tools also, but I think it uses OpenGL not CL? My EVGA GTX 670 SuperClocked 4GB card runs Valley nicely. You can checkout the new Adaptive Vsync "ADV" feature in the new 10.8.3 NVidia drivers when using Valley (I don't know about Heaven).

You are right it's OpenGL not OpenCL. My bad.

Regardless it's still a good tool to test out our Hacks graphics performance.

In FCPX I have seen an 80% increase in rendering speed using a GTX650, and real time playback has improved

OK here again my score, this time with "OpenCL_OceanWave_Bandwidth_V161" instead of Luxmark.

Hello, very interesting.
I have a gtx 550 ti (with lion 10.7.4). I would like to move to Mountain lion but I have to upgrade the GPU.
I do not play, but I do video editing and use Adobe premiere, after effect, final cut, potoshop etc. ... maybe it is better to fermi a card for me? ... 570/GTX GTX 580 vs GTX660 ti / GTX 670?

Fermi card 570 and 580 are fully supported in Mountain Lion?
Sorry for my bad English. Hello.

I have the 570 and it works great in AE and photoshop. Lux mark is about 1200. I had to hack in the CUDA for adobe after effects, but realistically unless your doing ray-trace you probably don't need it, but it's pretty simple to do (basically just putting it in the list of supported cpu)

cant say for the the other programs you listed, and to some extent, it looks like you'd really benefit from a strong processor and ram more than anything.
