PremierePro & Cuda on MacOS 10.8.2 on a MacPro

I now can confirm with the updated drivers for the nvidia card (GT120+GTX480) that PProCS6 works perfectly smooth even with a lot of  MagicBulletLook use (h246 and ProRes clips / 1080p25)

NVIDIA CUDA & DRIVER for PPro CS 6.0.2 on MacOS 10.8.1

thats my CUDA status on my 2009 MacPro

 

if u run MacOS 10.8.1 / PPro 6.0.2
make sure u have CUDA 5.0.24 and Nvidia driver 1.3.4.0 (304.00.00f20) running really helps and makes PPro more stable! (not tested or even updated to MacOS 10.8.2 yet tho’)
