CS5.5 will I benefit from GTX 970 Sli or a single GTX 980?

Hi there,
I have CS 5.5. I use AE and Premiere a lot. I currently have a 650 Ti Boost. on a 5 year old comp. I am going to upgrade to a 4k build. Not sure what to do, seeing that I'm on CS5.5?
I read somewhere that 5.5 doesn't use multiple cards, but I was a bit confused. Is it possible to use card in Non SLI?
Thanks,
Mr D

Have a look at Just curious: Is CC worth the money and bondage ? | Adobe Community
You are in the lucky situation that you can still upgrade to the perpetual license of CS6 Master Collection for a limited amount of $ 525. Within one year you start saving money over the rental of CC ($ 600 p/a) and never need to spend further money. The rental model is like a bottomless pit.

Will I benefit from PS 64-bit on my 32-bit system?

I'm using a MacBook 5.1 with OSX 10.5.8, running on a 2 GB RAM, 32-bit system (I believe).
I just got Photoshop CS5. But will I benefit from using 64-bit Photoshop, or will it be a disadvantage, so that I should switch it to 32-bit?

It will not run slower, but you will not "benefit" in terms of performance from the CS5 version on a low-powered system. You will benefitfrom the new features.
As I said, your first concern should be more RAM. In your 2Gb configuration ONE QUARTER of the RAM is sucked away by the graphics card which is very significant for Photoshop. Double the RAM to 4Gb and then just on-eighth of the RAM is being used for graphics, leaving much more for any version Photoshop which will speed things up really dramatically.

GTX 970 SLI Configuration Help

First off i will start with the specs to my rig.
MSI Z97 Gaming 7 Motherboard
i7-4790k CPU
16g Ballistix Sport Ram
250g Crucial SSD
2TB HDD
CS750M PSU
Generic DVD Player
NZXT Led Controller
Corsair 760T Case
(as of now) MSI GTX 970 Gaming GFX Card
I went this morning and purchased another MSI 970 video card so i can run in SLI configuration.
Is my PSU going to be able to handle both of them? I was told yes but i need to confirm this. I also have a Nvidia Geforce 960 SC card that i want to use and dedicate it to physics only. I was told i can do this and would be great but again can my power supply handle this? That is all im worried about. Im thinking 750 would be plenty and i know i could use the 1200 but i just dont want to spend any more money unless i 100% need to. Any feedback or response would be greatly appreciated on this matter!

Awesomeness... Well i have 15 days to decide on this. Im not going to lie the Asus WS board rocks man. The only thing it lacks in my opinion is WiFi and bluetooth. I see the xpower has those options. So its like a 80$ upgrade for wifi and bluetooth i suppose.. I dont know man but i will give this some thought for sure. Im a big fan of MSI and corsair and wanted to stick with that... I will keep you updated as to what i do.
• Wi-Fi/Bluetooth expansion module with Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 chip.
- Supports Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, dual band (2.4GHz, 5GHz) up to 867 Mbps speed. <-- Has AC wireless so the highest speed if your router supported it at near Gigabit ethernet speeds 867Mbps for AC compared to 1000Mbps for wired Ethernet!
ok let us know what you decide i just thought i would let you know as you thought MSI didn't make one that could do your 3 way setup and I just wanted to show you it already exists with MSI as you hadn't noticed that one!

Crash after going idle - MSI Afterburner / GTX 970 SLI

Greetings,
I love my new MSI GTX 970 Gaming Cards -- they work awesomely
However, I have a problem where if I'm running MSI Afterburner at all (i.e. load it, but don't do any overclocking), I receive a black screen and reboot 5-45 seconds after exiting any 3D application. The applications all run fine, the crash does not occur if Afterburner is not open. I've received the crash after Furmark, Elite Dangerous, Heaven Benchmark, Star Citizen, etc.. The idle crash NEVER happens so long as Afterburner isn't running..
I've used drivercleaner to clean out all old drivers, I've uninstalled MSI afterburner and reinstalled (and cleaned directories/registry inbetween).
Any suggestions/ideas?
Update - the crash does NOT occur if i'm running with SLI disabled.
John

Sorry and thanks for the guide - I wont' be lazy next time

Will Lightroom benefit from "switchable" NVIDIA NVS 512MB Optimus graphics?

Hi all, I'm about to get a new laptop -- one model includes "switchable" NVIDIA NVS Optimus 512MB graphics, meaning it has both built-in Intel graphics as well as the NVIDIA NVS Optimus 512MB, and can switch between them (to Intel for better battery life, and to NVIDIA for better graphics performance).
My question is: will Lightroom perform noticeably better with the NVIDIA chip vs. the Intel chip? I've seen demos showing considerably improved 3d performance, but I'm not sure if the same performance boost applies to Lightroom graphics.
Thanks kindly for any advice!

fwiw, I don't necessarily mind spending more for better performance (the dual graphics is about $100) but I was hoping I could make that decision based on some sort of practical expectation (ie, such as "expect about 15% snappier Lightroom performace").
Because we are discussing a side-effect here, there is no way to come up with a number like this. That is, Lr doesn't really care about how excellent your video adapter is, but the integrated adapter uses system memory, and Lr is memory intensive. So, making sure you have maximum memory freed up for applications is just prudent. But no one can say how this might translate into specific performance issues, or affect apps at all. It depends on what you are doing, and what else is running, and the state of your OS. It's very non-deterministic.
As I said before, with lots of physical memory, all of this might be moot, except in the most extreme circumstances.
Bottom line: Lr will work with pretty much any modern video adapter. Not using integrated graphics means more memory for the system and, therefore, more memory for applications. But whether or not this will make or break your experience is not really deterministic. But more memory headroom is never a bad thing.
Make your decision based on that, not on some (probably made-up, or based on anecdotal evidence) specific application performance projection.

MSI GTX 970 SLI crashing after returning to idle when exiting a game

Hello,
I'm writing this after a long process find out what was causing my problem.
I have no problem running a game, my issue is when I exit and the system enters in idle.
I don't know if it's drivers problem, a faulty card or any other issue.
I have a core i7 3930k
gskill ripjaws 2133mhz 16 gb ram
gigabyte x78 ud5 motherboard.
due to case space one of the graphics card is in a pcie x16 slot and the other is in a x8 pcie slot.
I've always found a solution when a problem appears in my computer. But this time It's anoying the hell out of me.
Thank you.

SLI GTX 970 Nvlddmkm "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered" Error

Hi everyone,
I'm having an issue with driver crashes and was hoping someone on here would be able to help. The error I am getting is: Nvlddmkm "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered".
My PC specs are:
Windows 8.1 Pro
i7 4770k with Corsair H100i
2x 8GB HyperX RAM
Asus Maximus VII Ranger Mobo
2x MSI GTX 970's
750w Superflower Leadex PSU
I've noticed that the error usually happens while the cards are cooling down after playing a game, although it has been known to occasionally happen while gaming. I am have MSI Afterburner running and have noticed that the GPU usage spikes up to 100% then the power usage drops completely just before the crash.
This problem has persisted through 3 clean OS installs so I do not believe it is a driver issue.
My initial thoughts were that the PSU could be insufficient, but after some reading online my system really shouldn't draw anywhere near 750w. What do you think? I am not totally clued up on PSU's, so not sure if my wiring could also be causing the issue - here's a pic:
The cards use a single cable that joins both cards for both 8-pins, then two other power cables for the 6-pin. Would this be a problem?
It's also worth noting that the issue doesn't seem to occur when SLI is disabled. I never had any problems with the original card prior to adding a second card though so I do not think it needs RMA'ing.
Any advice would be greatly appreciate. Thanks in advance.

Quote from: Svet on 08-June-15, 17:36:36

A bit more info, it crashes with SLI disabled. Just found out tonight for definite.

Thanks Remus, you make idea how many percent the performance will be improved with another gtx 970?
25-75% depending on application (game).

Any idea when GTX 970's will be added to the supported list in the latest version of premiere? id like my cuda.

Any idea when GTX 970's will be added to the supported list in the latest version of premiere? id like my cuda.

I Too would like to know. I've finally finished upgrading my rig with a 970, and as far as I know, there's been some good things and not so good things. (I'm on CC 2014.1 with Windows 8.1 Pro) I'll post screenshots when I get back to my computer.
FIrst things first: Make sure to install the CUDA specific to the 970/980. They have their own toolkit, that I believe people miss. I installed this, and then manually added my card to te supported cards file in the Premiere, AE, and Speedgrade files. When I opened Premiere, it's automatically set to use CUDA acceleration, so I believe it's supported there. I wasn't able to test this, unfortunately. I will confirm this soon.
Second, when I open After Effects, the Previews preference pane states my card is supported, and all the info below it seems correct, like the shader model. The only thing that seems off is the OpenGL, which is set to 2.1.2 NVIDIA or something of the like instead of 4.x, but I believe its an NVIDIA optimized driver, so I'm not too concerned. The big thing for me is the error message that I recieve when I try to enable Ray-traced 3D. I recieve a compilation error, followed by another message, and I have no clue what to do with them.
I'm really hoping Adobe releases an updates that bring full native support for these cards, as I'm running an class at my high school where I need to build three machines, all of which will have a 970 inside, and if Adbe doesn't support these cards, I'm kind of screwed as the pipeline is based completely in Adobe with its Dynamic Link and CUDA acceleration. Come on Todd, we believe in you!
TL;DR Yes, CUDA acceleration should work within Premiere Pro CC 2014.1, but make sure to install the correct CUDA drivers from NVIDIA (they should be in the yellow boxed text on the downloads page)

Will I recieve Witcher 3 and Batman: AK if i buy the MSI GTX 970 Gaming 4g

Ill be buying the card here in Croatia so Im wondering if Im gonna get the free games, because Nvidia said everyone who buys an Nvidia GTX 970 will recieve those 2 games.

Usually its the shops/retailers that supply the game bungle not the manufacturer of a product so call the place you are planing to buy one from and ask them!

Will GTX 970 work in an HP xw8600?

Hey guys, I'm planning to upgrade my old quadro GPU in an XW8600 workstation.
The power supply is sufficient with two 6 pin connectors, and it has PCI gen 2.0 16X slots.
I only use it for work (adobe premier and after effects mostly), not gaming.
I'm looking at the new gtx 970.
I've read that GTX 780 and 780Ti work well in it but they have Kepler architecture and the new series has Maxwell.
In the long run the plan is to replace the entire system with the HP z620 or z820 series and salvage the new gpu from it, but that will take a bit more time to gather the funds for it.
Here are the specs The PSU is 800 watt 80% efficent.
The current Cpu is a 4 core xeon x5460 3.16 GHZ and 16 gigs ECC ram.
The case is a standard XW 8600 with an ATX MOBO, so its big enough to house it.
I know that the ram and the CPU isn't enough, and it might create the bottleneck, thats why I'm planning to get the HP z620 or Z820.
The new build will probably be :
2x 6 core E5-2600 series
around 40 gigs of DDR3 ECC ram
850 psu
SSD system
2X 7200 RPM HDD in Raid 0
And the above mentionen GTX 970 as the GPU
So will the gtx 970 work in both systems?

Hi:
You may also want to post your question on the HP Business Support Forum -- xw Workstations section.

Will a GTX 970 be able to use with h9-1350?

As the title suggest, I want to know if the newly released gpu from NVIDIA - gtx 970 can be used with the model h9-1350, like power requirement, etc...
I'm planning on upgrading but I'm not an expert at this.

LongHuynh, welcome to the forum.
The first concern that I have is with the length of the card. It is 10.5" in length. I am not certain that it will fit with enough space for good airflow. You can make a template the size of the card to see if it will fit.
The card has 2 6-pin power connectors. You should check to see if your power supply unit (PSU) has these connectors.
Last, it may require UEFI in the motherboard, instead of, a standard BIOS. You should choose the manufacturer that you want and contact them to see if this is the case. The manufacturer that you choose may have different specs for their card, also. I took the information that I listed from the nVidia website.

How do I know if my MBP will benefit from heatsink paste reapplication?

Dear Mac Users
I know the theme of hot MacBook Pro's has been done to death, but I would like to add my two pennyworth with respect to the specific question: How do I know if my MBP will benefit from reapplication of the heatsink compound? I have trawled numerous very long threads here and not found a satisfactory answer. The reapplication of the heatsink paste is a bit of a schlep and not without some risk of breaking it, so it would be good to know if the benefit is worth the risk.
One common question is: "Are my MBP temperatures unusual?". A useful mac temperature database can be found at the following link:
http://www.intelmactemp.com/list
Consulting this list should set some parameter space for many users - there does seem to be considerable variability - suggesting highly variable quality of heat sink paste application by Apple. In my particular case I have an early 2011 MBP (i7, quad core, 2.2GHz). This certainly ran very hot. I even had a burn on my thigh from it, which took a while to heal. I know, they are notebooks, not laptops, but still . . . . To put very hot into perspective, the CPU was sitting at over 60C at idle, and whole case would be hot to the touch, such that resting your hands on it was uncomfortable. And yes, the computer was idling, there were no rogue processes chewing up cycles. At full load, the CPU would run at 90C and the whole thing would get very hot. I avoided running major projects or rendering jobs on it to preserve it from heat fatigue - the warranty is now up.
My first attempt at reducing the temperatures, was to clean it. The clue was in the USB/Firewire etc ports. All were very fluffy, which suggested that there was a lot of crud in the heatsink fins. Fixing this was simple; adopt anti-static precautions; remove the back panel; blow air into the exhaust vents at the base of the screen. Numerous large fluff bunnies popped out of the fans and elsewhere. Alternatively, you can unscrew the two fans and partially lift them out (without removing the power cables to the motherboard). Major fluff on the heatsink fins can then be tweezered out, prior to blowing it through, to ensure all debris is removed. I did this subsequently on my Core 2 Duo MBP. After defluffing the idle i7 CPU temperatures dropped from 60C to 43C, but perhaps of more importance was that the whole case was much cooler and the keyboard temperature was close to ambient - much nicer to use.
So that fixed the major heat problem. However, the question remained, would I see any further improvements by stripping the thing down and reapplying the heatsink paste? What I was looking for in this forum was a rule of thumb based on temperature measurements to help me make an informed decision on whether to strip the thing down. As my machine was out of warranty, I wasn't worried about voiding that. Also, where I am there is zero support (Africa), so Genius Bar or similar was not an option. But jiggering a 14month (very expensive) laptop was not something I wanted to do for thrills. The data in many of the posts did not provide any answers. In the end I made some measurements and decided to do the fix. The step by step instructions I followed were very clear and can be found for many Macs/models at:
http://www.ifixit.com/Device/Mac
This guide made life a lot less stressful, as pulling a connector the wrong way could trash the motherboard, and those connectors are so very tiny and fragile. It is very important to take it slow and follow each step to the letter (and not skip steps inadvertently). My before and after heatsink paste fix temperature data are shown below. The idle temps are improved, while the full load temps look like a marginal improvement. However, CPU temperature is not the only story. Certainly after the fix, the whole case is generally cooler, so the heat extraction system is working better. Also, the CPU before and after temps are quite similar at full load, but that assumes the CPU is running at the same power. I do not know enough about the i7 architecture to say if the before speed was being limited by heat, while in the after case the turbo-boost was able to run out to the maximum. Unfortunately, I didn't do any CPU performance tests. So, based on temperatures alone, it looks like a marginal improvement, but it is certainly making a difference to case temperatures.
Note all temperatures were measured at an ambient temperature of 20C on a flat, hard surface using Marcel Bresink's Temperature Monitor. Fan speed was measured using the Fan Control software - set to allow firmware control at idle.

GPU 38C

Heat Sink 3 49C
Fan Speeds 6200rpm

Fan Speeds 2000rpm
Full Load

GPU 59C
Heat Sink 2 50C
Heat Sink 3 50C
Fan Speeds 6200rpm
Back to my original question: How do I know if my MBP will benefit from reapplication of the heatsink compound? I think temperatures alone will not give a good answer - mainly because the CPU probably has variable output - due to turbo boost. One thing I did notice is that the temperature response of the CPU when it gets switched to full load, does vary according to the quality of the heatsink paste. With the original Apple paste, when I switched the CPU to full load (from idle) the temperature of the CPU went up to its maximum almost instantaneously and stayed at that level ie the graph of temperature vs time was a step function. This suggests that the CPU may be controlling the temperature by throttling itself. Otherwise, as the heatsink warmed up, the CPU should also rise in temperature - mine stayed bang on 90C and fluctuated only by a degree either side. After application of heat sink paste, the CPU has a much larger effective thermal mass and consequently heats up much more slowly. Turning the CPU up to maximum from idle resulted in the temperature climbing to a maximum over about 3-4s. After peaking at around 92C it dropped back as the fans kicked in, to around 86C.
So perhaps one way of assessing the quality of your heatsink paste is to ramp the CPU to maximum from idle and look at the shape of the temperature profile. A step function suggests a lousy job and benefit may be had from reapplication. A more gently sloping profile, followed by a dip due to the fans kicking in, may suggest you are in good shape. Obviously, this presupposes that your Mac temperatures are not insanely hot to start with (i.e. high 90sC+). In which case, if defluffing doesn't do the job, then new heatsink paste is almost certainly required.
Regards, BB

I'm sorry but this is too funny to pass up.

My photoshop cs5 will not recognize raw photos from my canon eos 70d

my photoshop cs5 will not recognize raw photos from my canon eos 70d

No. DNG is a RAW format. There are a few small manufacturer specific items that are left out when converted to RAW (for example, Nikon's Active D lighting) that aren't maintained, as well as some Meta data and focus points, etc. Personally I never noticed the difference, but perhaps some do. There is no impact to the image quality, you have just as much post production freedom with DNG.
I did it for a couple years before upgrading to CS6. It's an extra step, but you get used to it and it's not a huge deal. I would put my card in my reader, and download to a temp file. While that downloaded I would go to the fridge and grab a beer [Edit - you can substitute the beverage of your choice ]. Then I would run the RAW to DNG converter, and drink my beer. It was usually done before my beer (if not I got another). I saved the CR2 files as a backup at first, but once I got comfortable trusting DNG I stopped doing that.
Another option is to get Lightroom and use that for your developing. You can then send over a TIFF file with the edits. But in this situation you couldn't send the image over as a smart object (I think, I assume this would use ACR?).
