All the MX02s do the calibration.
The Mini is already qualified to work with Avid MC 5. Might be something to consider. But the Mini adds pulldown to 23.98 on output, doesn't hardware scale RED 2k to 1080, and the audio is unbalanced. Oh and no SDI or RS-422 of course. I guess that's a pretty big difference
.
I wish Avid would hurry up and qualify some more capable cards.
As far as GPUs, it might be worth waiting for the next gen Mac Pros to reveal themselves to see if new options become available. Then again, that could be June 7 or 8, or could be next year. Who knows?
