Any graphic card solutions to use 30" with G4 MDD??

Is there no way to use the 30" Cinema with a Dual 1Ghz G4 MDD??

Yes, the ATI Radeon 9600 Pro PC and Mac Edition will do the trick. Here is a link to the press release from last year.

Premiere cs5 mercury engine will it work without any graphic card?

HI there I have core 2quad 6600 processor of 2.4ghz, and intel classic series fb33 motherboard, with only onboard video ram shared with physical ram of 2gb.
I want to install cs5 on 64bit OS and upgrade total ram to 8 gb without buying any graphic cards(right now). Qn is will I be able to edit avchd videos? will the
mercury engine still be enabled? I know its kinda "no budget, want all qn" Right now I dont wanna buy a card as am plannin to buy new system later..
Thanks

Yes, of course, you are correct, Harm. I was over-simplifying.
I Took the OP's "enabled" to really mean "accelerated", and in that sense, it will not work as without the necessary graphics card there will be no acceleration.
I can certainly support your third paragraph, having just moved from a four-year-old system with a quad 3 GHz processor, 8 GB of RAM and a hacked 460 GTX graphics card, to a Sandy Bridge E system with a 3930 CPU, 32 GB of RAM but the same graphics card and HDD set up (for the moment). Your oft stated "molasses in winter" describes my old system pretty well from my present viewpoint!
The old system coped with the fairly gentle HDV, provided I kept the number of assets down, but threw a hissy fit if I tried 1920 HD, even with the Matrox (I know, I know!) I-frame codec.
Gigarigh,
You would be better off upgrading along my path - motherboard and processor first, using as much as you can of your old system for now, as this allows much better scope for future upgrading.

Upgrade MacPro1,1 with ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512 MB and Open GL 1.7.7. to recommended system requirements for heli simulator: OpenGL Version 2.1 compatible 3D-graphics card from NVIDIA or ATI with 512MB.

I want to install a helicopter simulator into my MacPro1,1 with ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512 MB and Open GL 1.7.7. Recommended system requirements for the heli simulator are: OpenGL Version 2.1 compatible 3D-graphics card from NVIDIA or ATI with 512MB (at least as fast as NVIDIA 8600, 9400 or ATI Radeon HD 2400). Is there such a graphics card available that will work in my Mac Pro?

Are you really still running 10.6.3? you will need 10.6.5+ so do that and make a clone.
ATI 5770 from Apple Store - like 1000s of others have done and in the comments section on the store page.

I have upgraded my MacBook Pro 15 late 2011 to 8Gb RAM, now when I go to about this mac in it more info it doesn't show AMD graphics card as it used to before, it just show Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB is that a problem that I need to worry about?

and in system report >> hardware >> Graphics/Display >> it shows both grafics card listed.

Some Mac's when the RAM is increased the Intel HD 3000 integrated graphics will bump itself up to the higher video RAM it takes, this seems to be what occured.
It also means the dedicated graphics card will be used less, but only so slightly less.
You obviously still should have both, you can test this by turning off Graphics Switching in Energy Saver, that will use the decicated AMD card all the time.
You can also run Cinebench and compare the scores here

I have an original MacBook Pro 17" It appears that the red is out of convergence. It is not the graphic card because it works fine with separate Monitor

Chrisj4203, thank you for your kind answer.
I have done a lot of restores to the Iphone, and resets also.
I;ve done holding both buttons as you sugested, but there is no signal appearing.
I am in Uruguay, South America and the original company is Movistar ( Telefonica) and the new sim card is from ANTEL ( the officail and biggest company in my country).
I don;t knoe what todo.
I have been trying for more than one mont.
I have gone several times to both companies. Aldo two times to Apple uruguay, and nobody can help me.

What graphics card did you use with the Asus A8AE LE motherboard?

I have an old a1210n with an A8AE LE motherboard with a PCIe x16 slot 1.0. I wish to know what graphics cards anyone has successfully run on that motherboard (see the computer model list below)? Unfortunately, what should theoretically function often doesn't. I tried an HD 4850 that produced only scrambled video, despite reading a slower hd 4830 and 4650 had worked.
Searching this board and others got me the names of some functioning cards (that are either too slow or too expensive,( I am looking for a passmark score of about 1000): 7800 oc, x1600xt, 8600gs, , hd 6850, gtx 470. I was surprised/skeptical at the last 2.

*URGENT* T500 not using any graphics card?

I accidentally disabled the ATI radeon 3650 Card and then the intel graphics card. Now, none of my games would run after i disabled both of them and it says run dxdiag? is there any way i can enable the cards again? In display properties, it says i am running some VGA card and it says n/a for all the properties about the card? how do i enable the graphics card again?

i had visit the link that u sent; but my problem is the10th step, that i only have 3 option, which is visa, mastercard and the other green card; the i-tune programme that i had do not have the "none" option for me to choose, is there anything i had to do?

Graphics card is dead! Help with replacement please!

Hi,
I've just been given a Dual core G5 powermac (2.0ghz) model. It works fine with the exception of the graphics card. Previous owner took it to an apple store for testing and they said he would need a new card.
I've got an apple display with the ADC plug.
Can someone please advise me on a suitable replacement please? I guess my options are a card with an ADC plug or and adaptor and a standard DVI card?
I find it all a bit confusing! Most of my work is music related so I don't need a high end card. I really just want a cheap solution to get this machine back up and running!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

My graphic card failed and developed strange barcode type lines that flickered intermittently - getting worse the longer the computer was on. The flickering changed when the cable to the graphics card was "jiggled" / moved around. It turned out to be a problem with the ATI Radeon 9800 graphic card that came installed with the G5. There was nothing obviously wrong with the card the fan was fully operational.
This is how I fixed it:
1. Ran a Apple Hardware Diagnostic check from the Startup disk - hold down the Options key, Select Hardware Diagnostic and then select Extended. This confirmed that it was the Graphics board (Video (RAM)) and not the Logic board (contrary to the view of Apple and TechServe - both of whom wanted me to bring the G5 in for their diagnostic ... $150 +)
2. Purchased the new board (I got it from B&H Photo):
http://ati.amd.com/products/Radeon9600/Radeon9600propcmac/index.html
3. Installed the new board - 5 minutes total: remove one screw - carefully remove cooked 9800 board - install new board - replace screw.
4. Install new 9600 software (which the manufacturers suggest you do first) - it automatically overwrites the necessary 9800 files.
5. Purchase and connect the Apple ADC-to-DVI converter - used to connect the new board to my Apple Cinema Display 23".
6. Reboot
I hope this helps anyone else with a similar problem.

M57 and any graphics cards - total lack of support - and do not buy

well just been in touch with support to find out if a new bios is coming out to support graphics cards that most people have. (HD5450 nothign over powerful) Sorry not suported in any way, only 3 crappy cards are supported officially. Basically told to sling hook Remind me not to buy IBM again from the total lack of support or updates.PCI-E standard - not if your IBM

WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER!!!!!!!! I have eight (8) of the ThinkCenter M57 6072 HDU running BIOS 2RKT64AUS. I have E8400s in a couple of them @ 3.0 GHz from the stock E7200 2.66GHz. Paid $65 each of the M57s at an online goverment surplus site. The machines are used by our kids for general homework and League of Legends, Warcraft, etc. The onboard graphics would not run these games. Purchased a ASUS Radeon HD 5450 Silent 1GB DDR3 64BIT PCI-E DVI-I HDMI HDCP Passive Low Profile Video Card for about $35. ***FAILED TO POST***. Purchased a VGA GIGABYTE|GV-N640D5-1GL RTL (NewEgg or NCIX) and it installed, posted, booted, and graphically scored 7.1 on Windows Experience Index and over 1300 on Perfomance Test 8.0 from Passmark Software. Card cost $100 (not on sale) Also purchased a pair of non-matching GT630s (~$65-100) and a GT610 (~$55) to try along with the GT640 but when they all came I started with the GT640 and never looked back. RMAd the others and bought six(6) more GT640s; only six(6) because I killed one of the motherboards updating the BIOS with the E8400 installed!! Only Flash with the correct CPU in I guess. I also intalled a ASUS Xonar DG 5.1 Channel PCI Sound Card 24BIT Dolby Digital DTS 105DB SNR W/ Headphone AMP for $35 and it went in the available PCI slot and now these machines rip and scream. The slowest part of these machines is the memory and the HDD. Easy to put in a nice SSD if someone wanted. And I might experiment with the E8400 machines with some faster memory. These machines are so well built as far as the modular little cases go. Cheers all and GOOD LUCK!

Which Mac Pro Graphics Card For A Multimedia Installation with 4 Projectors?

Hi All,
I'm looking for advice on a multimedia installation I'm working on as part of my thesis. Essentially I need to use my Mac Pro to run a multimedia installation that will use four projectors (Full HD) all displaying as one logical display. I then need to have two separate monitors to control back ground functions of the installation. My Mac Pro is an early 2008 model and intend to use the current graphics card to run the control monitors. So my questions are...
One of the main things I'm unsure about is if it's possible to output on more than one graphics output and have the computer see it as one display. Any one have experience with this?
Is there a graphics card compatible with OSX that will output to four displays simultaneously? Keeping in mind that it would have to have an option to see all the displays as one one single desktop so when I go full screen that the application I'm using will fill all four projector screens (I'm not concerned with edge detection or blending as it's not an issue). This display would be running at a resolution of 7680x1080 (4 x 1) or 3840×2160 (2 x 2).
If there isn't a four port graphics card, is there a similar type of card with just two outputs? Each display would would need to be capable of outputting half the combined necessary resolution each. I have looked at the option of using Matrox TripleHead2Go multiple display adaptors which would work provided I can find a card that will output to two displays while seeing the output as one singular desktop. That would essentially be two ports outputting the resolution above which can then be split among the Matrox TripleHead2Gos.
Finally, there is the small issue of what ports to use - DP or DVI? My understanding is that Dp can carry DVI so I'm covered in that case as well as DP cables being able to go slightly further in length than DVI? Any advice on this too?
Thanks,
Derek

The Mac already has the feature you need for seamless tiling of multi-display output. It has been built-in to Mac OS since System 4.2 was issued for the original Mac-II. It is called "Extended Desktop". Every well-behaved Mac Application can use it without modification, unless the author chooses to defeat the feature, as was done in some versions of iMovie.
Based on this feature, you are massively over-thinking the display and interface process. "It's in there."
When you set up multiple displays, whether on one card or multiple cards, the Mac can create an Extended Desktop. Each display provides a portion of this larger extended Desktop, and the displays are "joined" along the edges you specify. Windows split across displays continue to be updated and scroll as one window, regardless of the parameters of each display. The Arrange pane in System Preferences > Displays is used to re-arrange the Icons of each display to correspond with their arrangement in (real) space.
When the Mac Pro 2009 came out, its display card, the NVIDIA GeForce GT120, could be installed in multiples in every slot to get up to eight displays. It does not require Aux power connection. I believe it will also work in the 2008 model. It is still available in the Apple store:

K7N2 does not seem to recognize any graphics card

Hi,
If anyone could help me out with this I'd really appreciate it, I'm pretty stumped.
Current Specs:
OS: Win XP Pro
Mobo: K7N2 Delta w/ nforce 2 chipset
Graphics Card: MSI FX5600 w/128 MB DDR
Power Supply: Antec SmartPower 350 Watt
Ram: 1GB
Here's the problem. When I boot my system, the windows logo comes up with the blue scroll bar below it but after that's done loading I get a stop error
STOP: 0x000000EA
This refers to either a graphics hardware/software related problem.
I tried booting up in safe mode and after system loads the bare minimum, screen goes black and just hangs. I tried using the "last known good configuration" option but it takes me back to the blue screen.
So, using a fresh unused hard drive I installed Windows XP and then proceeded to install brand new drivers for this card to see if it will work. Computer works fine before VGA drivers are installed, but afterwards I'm back to square one. I've tried FX5600 drivers from: the CD that came with the box, from the MSI website, nVidia's website, and from Windows update. All took me back to the initial problem once they've been installed.
Then I said "O.K., it must be the GeForce card itself." So I've tried several different graphics cards to try and replace the one I have now but whenever I use another card the system won't boot up. The fans will turn on and that's about it. I've tried PCI and AGP cards.
Does anyone have any advice for how to troubleshoot this issue? Does it sound like I can still get my card to work? How can I get another graphics card to work with the system?

RAM Specs:
2 sticks of 512 MB PC2700 CL 2.5 Apacer RAM. I don't know if this matters but they're in DIMM slots 1 & 3.
I downloaded nForce drivers (version 5.10 as Richard suggested) and everything installed fine. However, the computer freezes whenever I'm using MSI liveupdate.
So, instead of using liveupdate I downloaded the nvidia drivers directly from Nvidia.com. During installation the screen flickered three times, and immediately after this the only thing appearing on the screen was a blinking cursor in the upper left; the computer just hung at this point.

In simple words the problems is that your mainboard is too old and don't have PCI-E slot...
Read the replies which you have above 1st..
As mates and MSI Tech as well notified you can't use PCI-E VGAs into your board...
You need a AGP one, here is examples of VGA's that can use:
Ati: (few good choices)
Radeon X1950PRO: http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=proddesc&prod_no=1146&maincat_no=130&cat2_no=137

Nvidia: http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=prodpage2&maincat_no=130&cat2_no=136&cat3_no=139
At all you can use any AGP VGA... Just make sure that your PSU is powerfull enough.

Here are the major failings of that "workstation":
1) The power supply is much too weak to handle an upgrade to a GTX 570. Heck, that PSU might not have been capable of actually handling even its claimed 350W - but more like 200W. As such, it's barely capable of handling even that "workstation"'s base configuration with integrated Intel HD 2000 graphics. You will definitely need a new power supply (at least 550W, but preferably 750W to 850W) right away before you can even upgrade the graphics card at all.
2) That PC has only one hard disk. Adobe requires a minimum of at least one additional hard disk (preferably two or more additional disks) in order to run Premiere Pro acceptably well.
3) Change out the H67 motherboard for a Z68 motherboard. H67 cannot overclock the "limited-overclockable" i7-2600 CPU at all. And even with a Z68 motherboard, the fastest that you can run that non-K i7-2600 would be 3.9GHz.
4) As you stated, that small case will not be enough. You will need a much bigger case to handle the load from Premiere Pro plus all of the hardware upgrades that I'm suggesting.
Also, keep in mind that the company only offers "lifetime" technical support if you don't tinker with the PC's innards at all - not even a minor hardware upgrade or only for a vendor-approved hardware upgrade such as RAM. Once you open that case for a non-vendor-approved hardware upgrade (e.g. an upgraded power supply, an upgraded GPU or upgraded cooling), you will no longer have technical support from that company that you're getting the PC from.
As currently equipped, that system will run about 25 to 30 times slower than a fast PC. Look at payal's 622-second result running 5.0.3 on the PPBM5 results list, with the same CPU, chipset and integrated graphics as your system: It is already more than 12 times slower (in terms of the Relative Performance Index) than a fast system - and that system is already running two disks. With only one disk for absolutely everything - the OS, media, projects, previews, cache and exports - it would be much slower than even that because SATA is only a half-duplex interface, not a full-duplex interface. As a half-duplex interface, SATA can only deliver data transfers in one direction at a time. However, video editing programs like PPro require simultaneous reads and writes. This means that the single disk must wait for data transfers in a given direction to be completed before any data starts transferring in the opposite direction.

Any graphic card solutions to use 30" with G4 MDD??
