Update the Video card graphics in OS X ML?

I have a 2011 late MB pro 17 inch, with the Radeon 6770M graphic card in it.
I was wondering if it were possible to update the drivers, other than to use software update, cause that is just the standard apple drivers.
I have two reasons for this.
First, i feel like the graphic card is underperforming. When i run the same games on windows, both native games, like WOW and LOL the fps on windows is always a lot better. 30 fps on OS X vs 100-120 on windows ( same settings)
2nd. I'm having the issue that when the graphics automatically switch the colour of my screen changes. I've found the solution for this. And every time i do it it's solved.. for about a day, then the issue returns.
So: Is there any way that i can update the drivers for my 6770m on Mac OS X 10.8.3
Thanks!

No

  • Is it possible to change the video card of a pavilion g7-1075dx?

    So, I have an HP Pavilion g7-1075dx Notebook with Windows 7. I'm an avid gamer and wish to play the newest games. However, there's one problem thats keeping me from doing so. Alot of the newer games require newer video/graphics cards. This particular laptop has an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250. The newest games seem to require ATI Radeon HD 4850 and above. This is the only thing thats keeping me from playing games like Starcraft II on the highest settings OR in the case of Star Wars: The Old Republic, it almost keeps me from playing the game, period, due to the graphics being too much for my current card to handle, causing massive lag. I was hoping I could change the video card. Upgrade. However, i've heard that with most laptops or notebooks you can't upgrade anything other than the RAM. I'm hoping anyone on here can help me out and tell me if it is possible to get a new video card for my laptop. We don't have a desktop computer so this laptop is my only hope for a long time to play newer PC games.

    Alright, let me put this in a simpler message: Does anyone know if it is possible to change the video card currently in my laptop, the HP Pavilion g7-1075dx, for a newer and better one. ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250 to ATI Radeon HD 4850 or higher.

  • Can I upgrade the video card in my 2009 iMac with the new ATI 2 GB VRAM card?

    I am looking for more video RAM for video, CGI and animation work in Blender.
    I may purchase Final Cut Pro X in the near future and I need to make sure there is enough video RAM to be able to work with this version of FInal Cut.
    I, currently, use Final Cut 4 Express and though this runs fine, through Rosetta, on my current setup, I fear this much newer version may need more graphics power than I have, now.
    I, also noticed some lag when working with Blender.
    No where near as much graphics or video/animation lag as when I using Blender on my old G4m but it's still slightly noticeable.
    I realize I may have to install this myself.
    Can I purchase, somewhere, Apple's 1 or 2 GB ATI card seperately or from a third party vendor and install, myself.
    I have seen posts that tell that the 27 inch iMac has a removable video card and is not soldered to the logic board like in the 21 inch models.
    If true, is there a complete procedure for the iMac breakdown, installation of the video card and reassembly procedure?
    My iMac only has the stock 256 MB VRAM graphics card.
    If the take down looks more difficult than I feel I can attempt, I have an Apple authorized reseller, repair facilty here, in my area.
    Could I purchase the card and have them install it for a fee?
    ThanX for all of the info and advice, in advance
    Michel

    You will need to check if your model originally was offered with a custom build option that included a different graphics card. If so, you may be able to have it done; here is a fellow who managed to do it on a 2011 iMac (graphics card not soldered) and the model originally offered a better card option:

    Is this yours:

    In particular, click on the link in this section of the specs:
    I'd check either with Apple and/or an AASP to see if it can be done with yours or if yours is one of those where it is part of the Logic Board/soldered to it.

  • My hp m8100n freezes so I want to replace the video card

    I bought this computer a few years ago and lately it's been freezing a lot (pretty much freezes 5 mins after I turn it on). It's to the point where I have to press the power button and turn off the computer.  I'm actually not sure why but this tends to happen when I'm trying to watch videos online or just playing games (even solitaire).  I've updated all the drivers from the website and that doesn't seem to work.  I read on some forums that this is a problem with the video card so I want to replace it with another computer's video card but I know nothing about computers.
    I'm wondering if anybody could tell me if I have to know anything before I go and plug in another video card. I know the m8100n video card is on the motherboard, do I need to disable it before I install the new card? or can I just put this one on?  I just don't want to break the computer.
    The video card is ati radeon x1600 pro 256 mb and I'm pulling this from another computer in my house (that comp's dead so I'm pulling parts out and using it in other places).

    Hi,
    Many things can cause freezes.
    If you are using a wireless keyboard and/or mouse then replace the batteries.
    You might be having a heat issue.
    Try this procedure:
    Unplug the PC and open it up. Clean out all the dust. Carefully remove and replace all the cables going to the motherboard one at a time. Do the same for the memory dimms and the video and sound cards if you have any.  You might want to buy a can of compressed air to blow the dust out of the CPU heat sink and the system fan.  Plug your PC back in and give it a go.
    Don't install the ATI Radeon x1600 pro 256 mb video card as it needs a bigger power supply compared to the 300 watt power supply in your PC.

    Here is a link to an Adobe TechNote about the same issue with an earlier (much earlier!) version of Premiere Elements and Windows XP.

    I'll leave it to Steve and Bill as to whether the fix offered in the link for Premiere Elements 2 would still be applicable to your version of Premiere Elements.
    Hope this is of some assistance.

  • Not install the video card driver

    Please help solve the problem, HP Pavilion dv6 6051-er Why not install the video card driver or a video card is burned? When I install a video card driver Radeon (TMM) HD 6770 in a few seconds during the installation screen is black and so is, download the drivers from multiple sites from off site and others, please: help solve the problem.

    that´s a strange problem.
    Maybe the agp-slot somehow is faulty since you ran into problems with booth cards.
    Have you visually check mainboard for any signs of bad capacitors, agp slot interface etc.
    PS,  seems like you do the driver install about the same order as me
    - Win XP + all updates
    - DirectX
    - Inf driver
    - Vga driver
    - rest......
    If the problems occured on a regulary basis when playing games etc, then it could be some heatingproblems or to weak psu, but that don´t seems to be the problem for you.

  • What are the video card requirements for running a 23" cinema display

    Hi Lionel,
    As a general rule of thumb, the ATI Rage 128 Pro will not support a 20" LCD. That being said, there are reports of it doing just that (possibly the edition that went into the cube).
    I'm not that familiar with the ins and outs of the Cube, so I can't give you authoritative information on it.

  • Can I attach an external monitor to my iMac G5 (ALS) if the video card is dead?

    I don't know for a fact that the video card is dead, but the screen on my iMac (PPC/ALS) 20" gradually started flaking out over several months and is now dead. Computer boots up fine and I'm looking at it through target mode right now.  I want to keep using the computer if I can, so I am wondering if I can attach an external monitor through the DVI slot even if the video card is kaput.  I'd like to get an opinion or two on this before I buy a used monitor and cable.  Thanks!

    You have found the answer. If the video chipset is OK but there is a fault in the internal display or its cabing, an external monitor will work. However, if the video chipset--which is farther "upstream" in the system--goes bad, the option of an external monitor is off the table.

  • How do you update the SIM card on your account?

    #1. < Edited for language by Host >
    I just thought that needed to be said.
    I had a texting problem with my iPhone and found out after 6 hours on the phone that I needed to get a new SIM card. I went to the store and picked it up. I asked them to help me activate the iPhone with the new SIM card. The people at AT&T tell me they can't touch my iPhone. ***? Why sell it then?! Well anyways...They tell me I need to go home and get on iTunes and update the SIM card on my account. I have been looking for 2 hours now and can't figure out how to do this.
    If anyone could tell me how to update the SIM card on my account, it would be so greatly appreciated.
    Thanks all. Sorry for the venting up there.

    You just install the new SIM card into your phone and then attach the phone to your computer using the dock or USB cable like you normally would. The phone will be recognized by iTunes and activated for use with your new SIM. (It's just like the fast re-activation that happens after you do a restore. If you blink, you'll probably miss it.)
    If you've plugged your phone in and now it's sitting there saying "iPhone sync complete", then it's done.

    Dear All,

    Spoke with Adobe staff - apparently this is a known issue with no fix in place. Hopefully they can get me in touch with someone who can update my credit card info so I don't get locked out of my applications as I have an art exhibit I'm preparing for. I'll keep the forum posted on status.

    It could also be the power supply.  Do you have a backup of the OS. If you have a near by Apple Retail Store I would bring it in and let them do a diagnostic on it to find out for sure. Once you know what it is for sure, you can decide whether to fix or replace.
