Hi all.
Has anyone on this graphics card encountered errors when working in Davinci Resolve and other programs that use opencl?
The problem is this. Under windows, no matter what drivers I put (with pre-cleaned of the old ones), DarkTable (graphics program using opencl), crashes. Davinci Resolve blames "GPU Error" or "Memory GPU is full".
But. If I run a hackintosh with the same program (Davinci Resolve) under this card, 0 errors. The program uses gpu fine. What's more, you can run Parallels Desktop or native games at the same time. It will all rustle and work.
"Yes, it does. We have about 45 machines in student labs, about half Windows and half MacOS. DR is far more reliable on the Macs. This doesn't mean any technical superiority (those are still Intel anyway), or that BM loves Macs better (as some claim). The most frequent issue, as we can see in this forum, are GPU drivers for PCs.
The simple fact that Apple controls both hardware and software and the limited number of models makes it so much easier for software developers to test thoroughly. OTOH, possible configurations of PCs probably reach the number of stars in our galactic neighbourhood. That's why I'd always suggest to turn to a system integrator focused on DR if you simply want a PC that works. And finally, don't allow M$ to mess with your system."
Is it really a driver problem? There is nothing you can do?
The more precise name of the card is: R9 280X 3G GDDR5 PCI-E DVI-I/DVI-D/HDMI/DP DUAL-X OC VERSION (UEFI) 299-6E249-00SA
P/N: 113-5e2490u-O46
Windows drivers for video card now, like a fool's milk. Cleaning (An uninstall with DDU v18.0.5.8 in safe mode), reinstalling. Installed instead of win10, win 8.1, 7. (Nothing helps.
In games the card works. as soon as it comes to ocl, everything.
(I reflashed the bios a long time ago. When I was not yet using the windows operating system.)
What drivers I installed:
16.101.X_Repack_Catalyst-Win10_64_18.X_Aug_12
radeon-software-adrenalin-2020-22.6.1-win10-win11-64bit-legacyasics-june23-2022-legacy
win10-64bit-radeon-software-adrenalin-2019-edition-19.2.2-feb12
Win10-64Bit-Radeon-Software-Adrenalin-Edition-17.12.2-Dec19
win10-radeon-pro-software-enterprise-21.q1.2
I would look at the hardware problem if not for mac os, where everything works.
Do Apple developers write the drivers themselves, or do they check them in some tricky way that there is no such problem under mac os, but under windows there is?
I'm just confused as to what it could be.
Does anyone understand the question?
