Hello Guys and Gals,

I am currently running Yosemite Beta 3 on a base 750m specced 15" rMBP. In Mavericks, when I run Cinebench r15 I would consistently get ~52fps with the 750m, which is consistent with what others are getting.

Now in Yosemite, that fps goes up to ~59-60 fps. The issue is that the actual visual performance is very very choppy, at no point looking like anywhere near 50-60fps.

To see if this was just an issue with Cinebench I ran Unigine Valley, resulting in the same issue. Higher FPS reported than Mavericks, but with significant choppiness in the output.

I don't know if this is an issue with a partially complete driver/3d pipeline in Yosemite, or if there is an actual issue with my install of Yosemite. I should also state that I fully understand that this is still a developer preview, so this really isn't an issue but more of just a curiosity.

Does anyone else experience this issue? If not, is your FPS reported by the OpenGL test in Cinebench r15 also ~60 fps?

Cheers!

Well isn't this kind of to be expected with something that's still in pre-beta form?

I have already stated that I understand that this is still a DP, I am simply trying to get an idea if this "issue" is a unique one or if it is consistent among all Yosemite Beta 3 installations.

I have a different setup and I am experiencing the same thing--Mac Pro 5.1 with a GTX770 card. Very choppy playback at the moment in Heaven for me. I'm sure it will be ironed out in one of the next DP updates.
