Model: Custom-made PC Desktop
Motherboard: ASUS P9X79 LGA 2011 Intel X79 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX
Operating System: Windows 8.1
Graphic card: NVidia GeForce GT 980GTX 4GB
Harddisk: OWC 240GB Mercury Accelsior_E2 PCI Express Solid State Drive

Output Setup:
UI on HDMI monitor at 1920x1080@60Hz and output to second screen at 3840x2160@30Hz
- Benchmark for 3840x2160 DXV3
- Clean content: 13 @ 30FPS and 16 @ 24FPS (24FPS is our cutoff FPS)
Noise content: 10 @ 30 FPS and 13 @ 24FPS
- Benchmark for 3840x2160 with "global effects and blend modes" disabled (which is how I typically program our big compositions)
- Clean content: 15 @ 30FPS and 19 @ 24FPS
Noise content: 12 @ 30 FPS and 16 @ 24FPS
I also tested with the media on the OS Drive (PCIe SSD) or secondary drive (Samsung 850 EVO 250GB) and it made no difference in terms of FPS.
