Would it be possible to have all these results plotted into a graph, showing performance ranges for each model/configuration? maybe pick a few common configurations to begin withâŠ
This would help purchase decisions for new systems or upgrades.
Thanks!
This is not a easy task.
CPU, GPU, RAM (DDR4/DDR5 ram speed & timing),
Some users has overclocked their CPU & GPU,
while some users has limited the TDP or undervolt.
The variation can be huge, even they have the same CPU & GPU.
running on M2 macbook is very slow, sometimes 0.5fps only. Is it normal?
I completely understand (built many PCs until I switched to Mac). Still, I can see 2 potential outcomes
- obtain directional information (not perfect) that can help people make hardware choices
- better understand what hardware change impacts the performance of video processing (this will take more time)
Thanks for the feedback!
With Iris, yes. This is slower than need be on Apple Silicon especially with the 2x upscale model.
Still, 0.5 fps seems a bit low except if you are upscaling to 4k?

I've undervolted 1080mV and underclocked (2250Mhz) my 6800XT to reduce power usage from 330W to ~250W
Impressive but still not fast enough given the configuration
Any suggestions on configuration ?

The numbers are ok if you consider that the M3 Max has 20 Teraflops fp32.
Comparable to RX 6800 XT bc it has 20 TF too.
RTX 4090 has 82 Teraflops.
You oversaw the Iris 2x numbers (which I guess is the most widely used model and upscale factor)? And Iris performance in general which is roughly comparable to Proteus on NVidia, AMD and even integrated Intel GPUs, just not on Apple Silicon.
Those numbers definitely arenât OK for Iris performance - and we also do know from the past that Iris could generally be nearly 2x faster, for the 2x upscale model more like 4 times faster.
Apple seems very closed when it comes to their hardware. To get maximum performance, you would probably need to create a new version of the application that uses all their building tools.
There are software developers on my team that got M1 Macs when they came out. There are still development tools we use that just donât work the same on M1. Theyâve had several years to fix that now. Either it must be really hard, or not possible.
But this doesnât really apply to TVAI.
We already had faster Iris speeds but there was a conflict with the early Sonoma versions and TVAI 3.4 upwards leading to a garbage output.
The fix Topaz applied for that came with a drastic performance loss especially for the (most used) x2 upscale model.
Just that now with Sonoma 14.1 (and 14.2) this old fast models in fact work flawlessly again at least here on two different configs (M1 Pro and M2 Ultra) without visual flaws but better performance.
Plus, even accepting the low performance TVAI doesnât really scale well with multiple GPU cores. My M2 ultra with 60 GPU cores is only up to about 2.5 times than the M1 Pro with 16 cores.
(P.S.: The not so well scaling of TVAI with multiple cores / higher GPU performance partly can also be seen on NVidia).
