CS4 with Quadro FX 1700 512MB (Tested Video Cards?)

After seeing a topic posted here with tested video cards, I went to the link to confirm my card was indeed supported and it is on the list of tested cards. http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb405711&sliceId=1
I only installed this card yesterday, replacing my GEForce 9800GT and last night when working with Photoshop certain things were incredibly slow, I was working with the sliders in Selective Color and there was a massive delay when I dragged a slider so much so that is was virtually unusable. So I went into Photoshops preferences and disabled the Open GL Drawing and immediately Photoshop was responsive again.
This begs the question why the performance got so bad with Open Gl turned on with a card that Adobe has tested? Could it be a driver? Could it be a setting on the Driver? I do have the latest driver from PNY, I am running the card under Vista 64, could it be the 64bit OS?
Any insight would be most welcome.

Hi Chris
Sorry for my belated reply and thanks for offering to look into this.
Here's my full specs:
Intel DX58SO motherboard
Intel Core i7 965 Extreme (Thermalrite Ultra-120 Extreme Cooler)
Kingston DDR-3 6 GB
4 x Seagate Sata-2 1TB drives
OS: Windows Vista 64
PNY Quadro FX1700
I've tried various drivers on the video card and for only one day I was able to run Photoshop with OpenGL turned on, a day later it went all sluggish again and nothing changed in my system from the one day to the next.
I've also played with settings (application specific) on the video card driver but it does not seem to improve anything either.
Is there a way to completely and utterly remove the video drivers so I can reload them fresh? Vista always seems to hide copies of these things even though you do full uninstalls of them.

Useless if we don't know the rest: >>Posting Guide<<
I believe that many on this forum were not very helpful on understanding problems with 890FXA-GD70
Most people come here to solve problem before asking MSI Tech support, because myself and many other think they are well skilled user here, but I do say there lack resource here to do any testing. There really no need to post any more info about this issue, but at this time those video card didn't work until bios 1.6. Clearly it not PSU, CPU, or RAM causing this issue, which I've already made clear in other post.
I was welcome to more feedback on any other video cards that didn't work. At the end of the day only thing we could have really do is report back to MSI about our problems.
I do think that when comes down to it, big issue that impact many user in same way, only really support is contact the manufacture. Along the way I do my best to help everyone, at the end of this problem I'm happy to report that I took the time to solve and answers the questions of user using this board, well I do this daily anyway ~yawns~ make me so tired
Sorry I can't help more on this forum as much as I could, I personal can't handle doing whole posting and waiting system.

Will X1650XT 512MB AGP Video Card work with 865PE MS-6728?

Hi,
My video card is fried, so I'm thinking of upgrading to a HIS X1650XT AGP 512MB video card. I read somewhere that some motherboards have issues with 512MB video cards. Is this true? I can't find anymore info on whether this motherboard will support this video card.
http://www.hisdigital.com/html/product_ov.php?id=276&view=yes
Anyone have any input?
Thanks!

No need to get hostile, I didn't say you were an idiot. Though continuing to make uninformed statements might get you there....

The video cards need at least 30A to make the card run properly. That's pretty damn easy to understand how the last PSU was the problem.
Actually, it doesn't. The 30A figure cited by the manufacturer is a worse case scenario for +12V needs of the entire system + the graphics card. The X1650XT doesn't even need an auxillary PCI Express power connector and can be powered entirely through the PCI Express slot, which supports a maximum of 75W.
If you need further proof of this, for CrossFire setups the manufacturer cites a figure of 38A on the +12V rail. If one card requires 30A, how could two cards require only 8A (96W) more than one? The same requirements are stated for X1950XT (30A single and 38A Crossfire), so its a highly generic target that attempts to account for an entire range of power supply rating methods and total system power demands.
Here are total power consumption measurements of whole systems used in various X1650XT tests:
Intel Core 2 Duo Extreme X6800 @ 2.93 GHz
Corsair TWIN2X2048-8500C4
Western Digital 150GB 10K Raptor
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Value
AMD ATI Radeon X1650 XT
Total system power under 3D load = 206 Watts MAX
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+
2GB Crucial PC-4000
Western Digital 74GB 10K Raptor
AMD ATI Radeon X1650 XT
Total system power under 3D load = 192 Watts MAX (only 66W higher for 2 x X1650XT in CrossFire)
Intel Core 2 Duo Extreme X6800 (2.93GHz/4MB)
Seagate 7200.7 160GB SATA
Corsair XMS2 DDR2-800 4-4-4-12 (1GB x 2)
AMD ATI Radeon X1650 XT
Total system power under 3D load = 182 Watts MAX
Those are figures for TOTAL system power needs, not the graphics card itself. Here are figures just for the X1650XT from X-bit Labs:
55.2 Watts @ full load
That's not more than 5A MAX from the +12V rail. Even assuming a 20% VRM loss, gets us to around 6A MAX.
As anyone can plainly see, the manufacturer's stated requirement of 30A is a hugely overinflated number to help people avoid purchasing a power supply like this because they are looking only at hugely inflated total power.
Given that your X1650XT could not possibly require more than 6A of 12V+ power, and high-end systems using overclocked Dual Core Extreme don't even consume more than around 250W TOTAL (all components combined, factoring VRM loss), the evidence is now overwhelming and beyond dispute that your previous power supply was more than adequate and that inadequate power was never the cause of your problem. It could have been defective, but that isn't the same as having inadequate power.

Thunderbolt Display with mini-displayport Sapphire HD 7550 video card

I have a Mac Pro 5,1, Model A1289, made in June 2012. It came with a Nvidia Quadro 400 graphics card, but I want to purchase a Sapphire HD 7550 3GB Mac Edition graphics card in order to use a 27 inch Thunderbolt Display. I know the Sapphire 7550 card will work in the Mac Pro version I have.
The description of the Sapphire 7550 card says it has two mini-display ports. Will the 27 inch Thunderbolt Display work with this card?
I have read information on various forums that suggest it will work and others that say it will not.
Will a Thunderbolt Display work with a video card that has mini-display ports or does it have to specifically say it is a Thunderbolt port?
Does anyone have a clear answer?

see this post - you will not be able to run a tb monitor on the older silver tower mac pro's

How to test video card

video card flickering

Hello nerijusgood,
It appears that you had a bsod error, that since this you've booted into safe mode and corrected parts of the issue, but can no longer get the display adapter to install. I will try to assist you with this.
Based on everything you have done, the first place to start would be hardware. You should be able to test it and this document can help you in doing so: Testing for Hardware Failures (Windows 8).
Start with the above and let me know the results.
Thank you for posting on the HP forums.

Problem on HP Pavilion dv7-6c90el with Windows 8 Pro x64 on Video Card

good evening,
I just finished installing Windows 8 x64 from Win7 Pro, I was able to find all drivers for my notebook, but I have problems with the video card settings.
My laptop is a HP Pavilion dv7-6c90el with two video cards, one run by the processor because it seems to me to be a part, and the other normally installed on the PC.
The cards are read by Windows as:
device 1: Intel HD Graphics 3000
device 2: AMD Radeon HD 6700m Series (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM v1.20)
the problem resides in the fact that the device should be only one support per second, or deactivated, as it will not. The video card AMD should be set to 1, and the intel 2. Only if I go to the "Device Manager" to disable the intel card, Windows works as if it were not present any video card, also installed driver is not correct because the card is an AMD Radeon HD7690M XT, the problem is that even if I uninstall this driver then always comes back. I also tried to download AMD Catalyst in the latest version, but can not find the card. It 's like the Windows is imposed only use the device 1, which, however, I can not disable the BIOS, because there is no voice. I note that under Windows 7 had no problem.
I ask you to help me because I need the performance of the video card for my work.
This question was solved.

IMac 24 with Nvidia 7600...bad video card choice?

Hi folks. I've had my iMac 24 incher for a few days now and I went to try one of my favorite game demos, Unreal Tournament 2004 and the performance I got from the video was a lot less than what I thought it would be. I have the game for my Windows machine which is a 3Ghz P4, 2GB RAM, GeForce 6600GT and the performance on that seems way better than my iMac. Why? I thought the video card it in was suppose to be pretty good (GeForce 7600GT 256mb). I changed the settings in UT to the native res of the mac but it didnt' help. Anything I can do about this? Thanks.

He said that he was running the demo. I don't
think
this has been updated to universal binary.
It has been updated. Do a search on versiontracker.
Do you mean this?
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/22450
Versiontracker screwed up again. This is a patch that updates the retail release of UT 2004 for Mac to version 3369.2. It isn't the demo. The demo weighs in at nearly 600 MB. If you have a link to a download of an actual UB demo of UT 2004, please feel free to share.

What displays WILL work with 1st gen Mac Pro & 4870 video card upgrade?

I've been reading these discussion threads for hours.
I, like so many others, have a 1st gen Mac Pro with a 1900XT that is taking a dump on me.
My only/best option for replacing it is the 4870...
But SO many folks with 3rd party displays have had problems, though almost no one is commenting on which 3rd party displays DO work.
Can anyone help? Do you have this configuration and a 3rd party display that IS working?
I don't want to buy this card and find out I have to shell out another ton of $$$ to buy Cinema Display.
I have an LG Flatron Wide...
Can anyone confirm a 3rd party display that DOES work? I'd be VERY grateful!

Photoshop CS6/CC performance with Quadro 1000M/2000M vs. Radeon HD 7970M/8970M

I am trying to find any benchmarks on how these two GPUs compare for Photoshop work. Does anybody have any pointers to information or even subjective thoughts?
I am led to believe from my research that a number of the filters in CS5 are using OpenCL. For OpenCL the Radeon 7970M is far superior to the Quadros. However, I am not able to find information on the overall performance of the Quadros vs. the Radeons for Photoshop.
The work with Photoshop will be for static images - creation of images rather than manipulation of source.
I am looking to get a Thinkpad W530, but it only comes with the Quadro GPUs. If I do get it, will I be getting a slow machine for Photoshop 2D work, assuming that the Quadro's are really targeted at 3D CAD work?

I don think Photoshop will stress any GPU it supports. For Photoshop make sure Adobe tested the GPU with the version of Photoshop your using. http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/tested-video-cards-photoshop-cs5.html
http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/photoshop-cs6-gpu-faq.html
If your also going to use the machine for gaming get the fastest GPU that also works with Photoshop. I did not see Quadro 1000 listed Quadro 2000 was listed in CS6 . Radeons HD 7000 series listed in CS6 list of texted GPU.

How good is a Macbook Pro with dual video cards for gaming?

I've been a PC guy my whole life (aside from my iPhone which I love). My gf has been pushing me to try out a mac and considering how my PC laptops have a pretty good track record of dying on me or encountering some other problems after a year or two, I can't help but consider making the investment. The only thing is, I'm a big gamer and usually get the latest games. I'm not super tech savvy though I do my research and get a sense of what kind of specs are better and worse.
In terms of gaming, I always assumed that more ram = better. In that sense, I'm a little put off that even the most expensive MacBook Pro only comes with 4 gigs of ram (which is what my year and a half old laptop has now) especially when it seems most newer laptops have 8 gigs minimum for a fraction of the price (and 16 gigs if you're willing to spend as much as you would on the most expensive macbook pro). Does RAM somehow work differently on a Mac or is it truly that little?
Also, how does the whole dual video card thing work, does that mean I'd be having the power of those two cards put together?
Personally, I've been leaning towards the Asus G53SX-NH71 because I can buy it for less than the cost of the cheapest macbook pro and as far as gaming purposes go it seems to have more power than even the most expensive Macbook which costs over double the price.
Am I missing something here? Do the dual video cards really bring that much to the table or for gaming purposes am I better off with a PC?
Thanks.

I've been watching this forum for years, and I'll have to say that gamers are not a big group around here. A few things. First, getting 8GB of RAM for the MacBook Pro is cheap. Most people either don't care, pay Apple to do it, or, like me, DIY. The max you put in a MBP is 8GB, so no 16GB, unless you were looking at the iMac or MacPro.
Second, there is no dual video card in a MacBook Pro. There is an integrated video card, an Intel HD3000, which shares RAM with the CPU, or a discrete video card, an AMD, various versions on different MBP's. The Intel is for low battery usage. The AMD is more powerful, and it's to be used when you've got power. The video card has more applications than just gaming, but also in video and photo editing.
No one here is going to talk you into one platform or another. If you are only going to game in Windows, then it's a waste to get a Mac. If you're going to game in Windows but want the Mac side to do everything else, the build quality and elegance of the Mac will far exceed most products out there. You can run Windows in Boot Camp natively, and as I understand, gamers love it, because the Mac is actually a better Windows machine than most Windows machines. But I don't play games, so I have no proof.
So the choice is yours. And we could argue all day long about the side by side comparison of a cheap Windows machine vs. the Mac. You are using the price vs. price comparison that is a false dichotomy, ignoring how one values various features. For example, the trackpad on a MacBook Pro far exceeds (and I mean light year exceeds) anything on any other laptop out there.
I spent 10 minutes answering your question. I'm not debating you on x vs. y. The choice is totally on what you're going to do. Most of us are trying to contribute to the world, so gaming is low on the needs list.

Building a new computer.. video card help?

im building a new system, planning to use after effects CS5 on it, and these are the specs.
Intel Core i7 930 2.8 GHz w/ 8mb cache
Asus P6T SE Motherboard
2 x 500GB Caviar Black 7200 RPM SATA HD (linked somehow.. raid, maybe? he said it's show up as one drive and be faster)
2 TB 5400 RPM Additional storage drive.
Patriot Extreme Performance Viper II Series DDR3 12GB (6 x 2GB)
GeForce GTS 250 512MB PCI-E w/ DVI, HDMI
and a 24" Samsung Display.
This has run me 2200, already a little over over my budget?
My question is, is it worth the upgrade to a 285 (or maybe a Quadro)? This'll cost probably 300-400 more dollars. How different will it really be with this Mercury Playback Engine?

If you build the PC and it has RAID you can use a RAID 0 (striping). It
reads and writes faster but if one drive fails all is lost as each drive only contains half of
the data. I run an ICor7 920 2.66 that boots from a Western Digital 10K hard drive and runs two 500 GB drives in a RAID 0 for data drive. I didn't get the boost I expected from the RAID 0. I run two monitors with a 512 MB NVidia 8400 video card running my editing screen and a 1 GB NVidia 9500 running my display monitor. It works pretty well. The CS5 x64 really made it better but if I have too many layered sequences I have to reduce the monitoring to 1/4 res. I run Windows7 x64.

OpenGL compliant video cards

Your GPU isn't really sufficient to run Photoshop. Just about any video card you can buy to replace it is better than that ancient circa 2006 video card.
Do yourself a favor - don't waste any more of your time trying to make it work. Go down to the local high tech store and get an inexpensive gamer card. Go through whatever process is necessary to fully remove the old drivers, get the latest released new drivers for the new card, and be happy.
This is a quote from my last post ("Photoshop opens up all files as transparent") in which I asked what I needed to do to get Photoshop to work. The immediate answer was to uncheck (Edit/Preferences/Performance) Enable OpenGL. The long term answer (see quote) seems to be to replace my graphics card.
This post is to explore which graphics cards to consider, etc...
I am not a gamer. I am looking for an inexpensive video card that will support 2-3 monitors (currently I am running a NVIDIA Quadro NVS 285 for two DVI monitors and happily running the third DVI monitor off my motherboard). I believe I would like to stick with NVIDIA technology.
I believe all of my flatscreen monitors are analog (i.e., using the VGA portion of the DVI cable).
Question #1: Do I need to purchase digital monitors to get OpenGL to work?
When I search (www.NewEgg.com) for video cards I notice (doing a comparison) that some support "OpenGL"; some "OpenGL 4.1"; some "OpenGL 4.2"... (each with a corresponding price increase)
Question #2: How many OpenGL versions are there and why should I be concerned?
I suspect that if I go the OpenGL route that I will be able to find a card that supports two monitors. If I continue to run the third monitor from the motherboard (Display adaptor = Intel(R) HD Graphics), will that negate the advantage gained by the video board? In fact, when Photoshop complains about OpenGL issues how does it know which display adaptor it is addressing?
Question #3: If I run two monitors off an OpenGL compliant video card and another monitor off a video card that may not be OpenGL compliant can I still get the benefits of OpenGL?
Thanks

http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/photoshop-cs6-gpu-faq.html is a very helpful resource.
Using it, I notice that the NVidia GeForce 600 series are tested video cards that support OpenGL.
Getting more specific, the EVGA 01G-P4-3656-KR GeForce GTX 650 Ti BOOST Superclocked 1GB 192-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 SLI Support Video Card http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130915 ($159) is the least expensive card in that series…
But it only has 2 DVI ports, meaning that I have to continue using my Gigabyte motherboard GIGABYTE GA-B75M-D3H LGA 1155 Intel B75 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128555 video capability for the 3rd monitor. (Of course the specs don’t cover OpenGL)
According to http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/photoshop-cs6-gpu-faq.html
Are you using more than one video card?
Multiple video adapters can cause problems with GPU-accelerated or enabled features in Photoshop. It's best to connect two (or more) monitors into one video adapter. If you have to use more than one video adapter, make sure that they are the same make and model.
Otherwise, crashes and other problems can occur in Photoshop.
Note: Using more than one video adapter does not enhance Photoshop's performance.
Q1) By “multiple video adapters” does Adobe mean ‘multiple video cards’?
Q2) What is meant by “It's best to connect two (or more) monitors into one video adapter”?
Sounds horrible if I don’t buy two video cards (and I don’t know that two can be comfortably driven by my 500 W power supply).
