With my new macOS Sierra freshly installed, I was able to successfully install the NVIDIA beta drivers without issue.

In the graph below, we collected test results for a variety of Macs (plus one killer Windows PC). We enable Multiprocessing in the Performance preference panel and specify 1.5G of RAM per background spawned sub-process. It is one of our real world ways of maxing out the CPU and memory.
We use a sample project created by Total Training for benchmarking various Macs and PCs. There are plenty of After Effects CS6 projects don't benefit from GPU acceleration. We had to go into the After Effects package contents folder and use the "sudo nano" Terminal command to add the GeForce GT 650M to the raytracer_supported_cards file that contains a list of CUDA compatible GPUs. NOTE: We had to "cheat" a little to get the 2012 MacBook Pros to support ray-traced 3D rendering since their GeForce GT 650M is not on the official list - yet. These GPUs are not officially supported by Apple but certainly impressed us with the speed at which they rendered the ray-traced 3D animation (13 and 16 minutes respectively). On July 13th we added results for the GeForce GTX 580 and 570. One pro user reported that choosing OpenCL in Premiere Pro provides double the performance boost of CUDA. Premiere Pro CS6 lets you choose either CUDA or OpenCL.

Conversely, the CPU of the Mac Pro with the AMD GPU was running at full tilt (1200%) while the RadeonHD 5870 was "taking a coffee break" - since it does not have CUDA support (proprietary to NVIDIA).Īdobe does, however, "toss a bone" to AMD by using OpenCL acceleration instead of CUDA in Photoshop CS6. This is due to the fact that the ray-traced 3D animation was made of solids with no external media or textures. The CPU was loafing along while the NVIDIA CUDA "aware" GPU was doing all the heavy lifting. The actual render time is likely much longer since the last few frames add 'killers' like motion blur and depth of field. We stopped the render after 5 hours and added AE's estimated remaining time. I say "at least" because the times in the graph are an optimistic guesstimate. Our 6-core Mac Pro with Quadro 4000 was at least 10 times faster than the same Mac Pro with the Radeon HD 5870. That's because the ray-traced 3D render option requires CUDA support.
