Core image and the Nvidia Geforce 4 4600 ti

Hi, have a G4 dp 1.25 m8570 os 10.5.8 ,just installed a used ti 4600 which should support core image
but in the about this mac the card shows up as device id 0x0250, rev id 0x00a3, rom1105 , but it says core image is software based, it is connected to apple studio display 17" crt with ADC connector, 1280
x 1024 at 75 hz. the card seems to work fine , so how do I get the core image to work?

IN a perfect world, you would get an OEM Radeon 9700 and it would give you Core Image while maintaining ADC connection.
But you may find thast card nearly impossible to find. Aside from which, having your G4 use it's power supply to run an Apple CRT is probably not best solution.
A flashed Radeon 9800 or better coupled with a an ADC to DVI connector would relieve your G4 of powering the display AND give you Core Image.

  • Is there a big difference between Intel Iris Pro graphics and the NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M graphics processor with 1GB of GDDR5 memory

    Is there a big difference between Intel Iris Pro graphics and the NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M graphics processor with 1GB of GDDR5 memory, is it worth paying an extra $200?

    Software support of graphics card is key.   If no graphics card is mentioned in software specs, then it can be ignored.  Mostly games and high end image and video graphics software are affected.

    Things to note:
    I have been unable to update firmware on this computer for about a year now. Im not sure why.
    I am running a bootleg copy of Windows XP on this computer, I would not like to spend $149 to get Windows 7 if possible.
    any thoughts on the matter would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

    Why don't you take your 'old' MBP into your local Apple Store and have them check out everything that's wrong with it - and I mean everything? Then, when you get an estimate about how much it would cost to get the machine completely repaired, ask about the Apple flat-rate repair pricing?
    It's worth a shot - and with what you may save, you can put in the bank for a new MBP.

  • Photoshop CS4 Issues with the NVIDIA GeForce 8800?

    I have an Mac Pro Intel 2 x 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Xeon with 6GB RAM running OS X 10.5.5 and an NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT driving two monitors.
    I just installed Adobe Photoshop CS4 fresh from a factory CD.
    When I perform a Distort -> Lens Correction or do a Free Transform to rotate an image an arbitrary amount, and then follow that with a resize (tried 133% and 166%), the image ends up with a pattern of gray plaid overlaid -- especially visible in the darkest shadows. The pattern appears only on the rotated layers of an image.
    This pattern persists if I quit and restart Photoshop, BUT -- there's no pattern visible if I open the same image in Photoshop CS3. It only appears in CS4.
    This is easy to reproduce -- I just tried it with an image I created in Photoshop at 5x7" at 240dpi and filled with solid black.
    I dropped a Bug Report to Adobe, and they wrote back suggesting "This is most likely an issue with your video card driver."
    Anybody else out there having this issue? Anyone with an identical setup want to test this?

    I'm seeing what you are talking about when viewing at 200% and up on my 300dpi images. I'm thinking that its the new pixel grid overlay for dialing in the details on the image.
    No, that's not it. I can see it at 100%, and only on images that have been rotated and resized.
    In fact, yesterday I rotated one layer under an unrotated layer, and only the rotated layer showed the plaid pattern.
    And it's not a simple grid -- it's a real plaid-like gray, almost like stretch marks.

  • Will be the NVIDIA GeForce 620M graphic card be compatible with any of Adobe Premiere series?

    Recently I adquired the GeForce 620M graphic card, trying to resolve a problem with my Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 software (Premiere suddenly stopped working, and the only problem was the graphic card, the NVIDIA GeForce 210 series I used to have).
    In order to fix that, I buyed the 620 series, but in the Compatibilities page of Adobe (http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/products/premiere/cs6/pdfs/c ompatibiltiy-list-premiere-pro-cs6-only-hw-compatibility.pdf), in any of the Premiere series, CS4, CS5, CS5.5, CS6..., appears the 620M graphic card, so my cuestion is if the card is too recent to admit Premiere Pro.
    Regards.

    Employees and beta test people are not allowed to comment on any future Adobe plans
    Any card will work with CS4 to send the display to the computer monitor
    Hardware acceleration using CUDA cores is only available for CS5 and later
    The official list is only updated as Adobe has staff time to completely test & certify any individual nVidia card... For many others, with at least 1Gig of video ram, use the nVidia Hack http://forums.adobe.com/thread/629557 - which is a simple entry in a "supported cards" file... again, this is ONLY for CS5 and later

    Dear Ms. Andersen:
    Evga handles GeForce GTX 680 MX. Apple has nothing to do with it. However, I can try to help you a little bit
    go here for Evga's Mac support: http://www.evga.com/support/download/default.aspx
    This is one of those video cards that needs 2 power cables connected to the mother board for it to work propertly. It needs 195 watts of power, which  the PCI-E slot will not provide on its own. If you have the power cables connected up okay, then the only advice I can give you is to telephone EVGA and see about a possible replacement.  Apple's policy, as I understand it, is to replace same with same, even if you have the money and are willing to pay extra. This is a 3rd party video card and as such, Apple is not responsible for any problems wth it.  I don't understand either: based on my knowledge of Norwegian,  your screen size is 1280x800 and your bit depth  is 32 bit, and you have 2 gigs Vram, so you should have no problem.
    maybe you have a bad card
    good luck to you

  • Core image and acd compatible cards for cube

    I recently bought a second hand G4 Cube online and I am going to update it to Tiger. Now I haven't received the cube yet, but I was thinking along with the OS update, to change the graphics card too with something better. The cube has the Apple Cinema Display along and Tiger have core image. I can find a list with the core image compatible cards on this site, but I cannot find anywhere a list with all the cards that support both acd and core image and are agp x2 compatible. Any info would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks
    Christos

    For a Cube, I think there is only one possibility for both ADC and Core Image.
    The Radeon 9700 which shipped with G4 MDDs.
    Here is one, priced insanely...
    Link
    From the picture, it looks like this particular one is 4x/8x AGP only (the AGP connector is shown with only one notch instead of 2).
    One other possibility would be to use a compatible Radeon 9800 or Geforce 6200 and an (expensive) ADC adapter like this one.

  • Is the NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS worth the money for Final Cut Express?

    Hi,
    I'm considering a new iMac 24, but not sure if the speedier on is worth the money.
    Currently I use a MacBook Pro 2.2 for Final Cut Express with a 23" cinema (mostly DV, some HD) and that works okay, but won't play back in real time when I composit video.
    Anybody know if the NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS will help in that area?
    Thanks,
    KC

    The speedier video card is great for 3D stuff, but it won't matter a wink for Final Cut Express, which barely makes use of the video card.
    Keep in mind that Final Cut is using the CPU, not video card, to perform the editing, decoding, and encoding of the video. The only time the video card comes into play is during playback of the video, and any of the video options available for iMacs will handle that just fine.
    When you composite video, the hard-disk throughput will start to come into play. The dinky 5400 RPM disk in your laptop will adversely affect the performance of that.

    Ask in the Premiere forum. On a more general level, though, CS4 will never be officailly supported, only current versions, if at all.

  • Does the 15-inch Retina MacBook Pro 2.6-GHz version have the Nvidia GeForce GT 750M discrete graphics or is it just the 2.3-GHz version?

    Topic title pretty much says it all. I want the 15-inch 2.6-GHz version with the Nvidia GeForce GT 750M discrete graphics or is it just the 2.3-GHz version?

    Yes, I have. The hardware specs are shown for this model, but when you dig further into purchasing it, it doesn't list the graphics cards under "hardware".
    My main concern came from reading somewhere (maybe on this forum) that some guy said he chose the 2.3 version so he could get the discrete graphics. I thought all 15inch 2.3 and above had both:
    Intel Iris Pro Graphics
    NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M

    Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions. These are mostly user to user discussions.
    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

  • MSI CX61 20D-011, does the NVIDIA GeForce GT 740M have 128 bit or 64 bit bandwit

    hello, i am planning on getting a new laptop and im very picky as to what i buy.
    the MSI CX61 20D-011 pretty much ticks almost all my boxes for it performance to price ratio.
    now i need to know what vertion of NVIDIA GeForce GT 740M graphics it has.
    "The NVIDIA GeForce GT 740M is a DirectX 11 graphics card of the middle class. It is based on the Kepler architecture and manufactured by TSMC in a 28-nanometer process. In addition to an older version with the GK107 chip (384 shader, 810 - 895 MHz, 128 bit memory), there also exist models with the new GK208 (384 shader, up to 980 MHz plus boost, 64 bit memory). Both versions usually use DDR3 memory; however, GDDR5 versions are possible, too."
    this has been quoted from the notebookcheck as external links are not allowed apparently
    as you can see the 740M has 2 different chips a 128 bit one and a 64 bit one.
    for me it would be desirable to have the wider bandwidth of the 128 bit one.
    can someone please confirm, thanks.

    This goes to MSI: 
    This is total disrespect to customers to offer 64bit, GDDR3 type GPU in nowadays laptop. This is very bad behavior, even though they never claimed CX as a gaming machine. WHat they do should be on 2009 laptop. Not on 2013 year.
    Thank you for a screenshot.
    1. Stop bashing MSI: >>Please read and comply with the Forum Rules.<<
    2. It's quite normal to use that kind of GDDR3 with entry level gpus and it is meant by Nvidia to be used that way. Using GDDR5 instead is optional and not quite attractive for notebooks of the CX61 price range which aren't meant for gaming.
    3. This is a Users-to-Users Forum. If you want to contact MSI do so: >>How to contact MSI.<<

    New to the iMac and apple

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    If you aren't going to use your Mac for anything special (Final Cut, Aperture, Photoshop, games...), you don't need that graphic card and you will save money.
    Also, as it looks like you are going to buy the 27-inch iMac, I recommend you to buy the Mac with 8 GB of memory, and then, buy the memory that your iMac needs in OWC or Crucial (the iMac supports 32 GB of RAM) > http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/iMac/2012_27/DDR3L
    Doing this, you will save a lot of money. Also, it won't void the warranty of the Mac. If you need help installing the RAM, see > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5540

  • When saving an image in PS CS 6, and going back to Lightroom 5. The original image and the edited image are at the end of the line up.

    I'm using a Mac, Lightroom 5 and Photoshop CS 6. I've started having an issue with the line up in Lightroom 5 after saving an image from PS CS 6. For some reason when I save the edited image form CS 6 it's taking the edited image and the original image and putting it at the end of the line up in Lightroom. If I take the edited image and move it to the right of the original it will put both of them back in the line up where they should be. How do I fix this. I've been looking in the menu for some kind of setting  with no luck.
