Running F28 on a stock system direct from High End - 7200rpm drive, blah, blah, blah. The point is that F28 runs very slowly when both outputs are enabled. If output 2 is disabled, the frame rate increases dramatically.

what is your 'stock system' from highend?

highend has been selling machines with different configurations for a long time.

>highend has been selling machines with different configurations for a long time.

Regardless of that fact, does anyone else run into this issue? If not, then I will look at our configuration.

You absolutely need to post your configuration before anyone can tell you anything.
You havent mentioned your processor, or your operating system.
Or your graphics card.
You have said that you are using a poor disc system. A single 7200rpm disc?

You need to tell me the serial number string in the "About Catalyst..." dialog
it begins with numbers like
1033D1-3222

Once you have told me your configuation?

It is vital if you run two screens that both screens are set to the same refresh rate or frequency.
This depends on what screens you are using, and what kindof outputs you are using

For 30fps playback, both screens must be set to 60Hz.
For 25fps playback, both screens must be set to 75Hz.

You must not be using any kindof apple studio display, as the refresh rate on these types of monitors cannot be changed.

F28 is faster than all previous builds in a properly configured g5 system with radeon 9800.

Which build of f28 - how many layers?

I am running f28 on 3 servers now and not experiencing any problems. I am running on G5 Dual 2g, with 2 7200RPM drives, and Radeon 9800. So far this config is running great. Once I can upgrade to better secondary drives my performance should increase even more. I just have to deal with the fact that my servers are all rentals.

i think rodd may be using an old os, or an old computer, and not have his screens set to the same refresh rate?
