![]() ![]() Using optimized or proxy footage is a much better solution than editing h.264 or. Haha, although for editing 8K h.264/265 in Resolve I think you'd need a pretty expensive M1, probably the Max, with at least 32 gigs of RAM. On the other hand, the GPU market is so bad right now that getting an M1 might be cheaper. ![]() Also are you running the free version or the paid? GPU acceleration is reportedly only on the paid version for Windows. The CPU and SSD’s look fine, but the GPU is weak and the RAM is wildly inadequate. But your 1070 is the absolute minimum for 8K capability as it has the hardware HEVC encoder/decoder and 8GB VRAM. I agree, that system needs a GPU upgrade, for 8K I’d be wanting a 6900XT or 3080, and adding 64GB of RAM. 32GB is the minimum for 4K and 64GB+ is recommended for 6k/8K RAM will be a limiting factor as well, 16GB isn’t much at all for an editing station on x86-64. The 8K option is there to give you more flexibility in terms of cropping in it's not meant for delivery. Nobody renders in 8K, though you would generally render at 4k or 1080p for delivery. It'll transcode it inside the program but then use the original footage for render. In general you'd want to be editing proxy footage anyway if it's h264/h265 you don't have to "shoot" proxy, you just ask Resolve to create optimized or proxy media for you. You can have the fastest processor in the world and 70 terabytes of RAM, but Resolve won't run smoothly if your GPU isn't up to spec. You'd have to see if your GTX 1070 is up to the specs (Blackmagic Design used to provide a configuration guide but it hasn't been updated in a while). ![]() Usually with Resolve CPU is not the limiting factor, it's GPU. I can shoot proxy but is M1 really the solution there? Or maybe a faster CPU will handle?Įdit 1: Somehow playback is smooth on my 4k screen using playback softwareĢ. Without using a proxy, my AMD 3700X can't playback in Resolve studio smoothly with 8k30 200M PP8 video. Updated in thread 1: upgraded to 3070, no differences.
