Do I need a Kona card instead of a video card upgrade? PC CS5.

I have limited budget at this time.  Enough for one card or the other and I am getting conflicting answers so I want to bring it to the forums...
The post house sent me footage ingested in AJA 10 bit uncompressed from a Teleciny in '93. 3;2 pulldown, interlaced, 525 line in MOV. format.  In quicktime it is showing as Format: Ajav210, 654 X 486 Millions, Data Rate 228.37...  I spoke to the builder of my system and they recommended upgrading to a Nvidia 4000 from my current NVIDIA Quadro FX1700 since I am having issues with seeing the titles jumping and some jagged edges on shots with angles and I can not seem to get the footage to play full res. Do I need a Kona Card instead since that would directly handle the AJA injest or will the 4000 take care of it? I am looking for a price point under a grand so probably the KONA LHe Plus. If I had the Kona I could down convert this so in theory the FX1700 could handle it.
Again I appreciate your time and experience in this!

Honestly, you may not need either.  The 210 codec is built into PP, and the current Quadro is not likely to be causing your problems.
So, let's get some more details on the actual problem and maybe we can solve that.

    Hi John,
    If your MBP is a 2011, yes, and here is one example: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/1333DDR3S4GB/
    If your MBP is from 2006, the other year Apple made a 2GHz, the answer is no, as the max RAM is 2GB.
    Given that it appears you already have 2x2GB installed, I'm "guessing" you have the 2011 model, so the answer is yes.

  • HT204406 How can I subscribe to Itunes Match redeeming from itunes card instead of using credit card?

    How can I subscribe to itunes Match redeeming from itunes card instead of using credit card?

    Do you have another device (eg a computer) that also contains your music? If so, yes, you can turn off iTunes match and sync everything with a cable. Do you tend to buy new music from downloads or ripping CDs? If downloads, you can turn on "download purchases automatically" on the phone to make them available to you there, once you've cable-synced your current library. If CDs, you would have to manually sync with cable (or over local wifi) each time you add a new CD.

  • Genius needs to help! problems with my video card and system

    Hey guys! I'm going to post my specs first so that you get a good idea of what I'm running on:
    MSI Neo2 LS 865PE.....MAT=Slow
    Pentium4 2.4C.....FSB=233=2.8C hyperthreading enabled ~>1.55V
    Corsair TwinX 1gig PC3700.....memory on "AUTO" in BIOS with timings at 3,4,4,8 ~> 2.7V
    Radeon 9700NP.....stock speeds ~>1.7V
    AlienX case with 2 fan400 watt power supply and 6 case fans
    Zalman Alum/Copper heatsink fan
    1:I've had this motherboard for a few months now. I upgraded my video card from a nVidia Ti4200(128meg) to a Radeon 9800 a month ago, but I couldn't get it working at 8X AGP, no matter what voltages I threw at it. I returned it for a Radeon 9700NP hoping that it would work, but it still won't.
    I'm using BIOS 1.9 and since there is no option to select your AGP speed, I could only try using ATI's drivers. Once booted into Windows, there is a slider you can move to select you AGP speed. On my machine It says that It has performed some tests and has concluded that AGP 4x is the best for my system....but my system supports AGP 8X!
    I've moved the slider over to 8x (which requires a reboot) at least 5 times with each card but the slider refuses to move past 4xAGP after the reboot.
    2: My second problem: I had an old stick of KingMax PC3200 and decided to buy 3 more sticks. Unfortunatly, the 3 I bought did not match the one I had, so I only put 2 of the new sticks I bought into my system. Immediatly, My system would crash, lock up, files were corrupt, and I got PLENTY of blue screens of death with a long message containing: 0x0000007  with all these other numbers and "0"s. I did a search online and found out I had a hardware incompatibility problem. I never got this with my old stick of ram.
    I returned the 3 sticks of Ram and replaced them with the Corsair. Put my new Radeon 9700 in, formatted my hard drive....and within 24 hours, my system locked up 3 times, rebooted itself 5 times, and gave me the same BSOD as mentioned above with the same long message.  
    I didn't change anything except for the memory and the video card. I've been wanting to overclock, (thats why i bought the faster memory   ) but I'm not sure what to do at this point.
         I have my FSB at 233 but I'm scared to go any higher because of previous system instability at stock speeds. My RAM was running on 400 and MAT=Turbo with the most relaxed timings at 3,4,4,8.
    I've given myself hours of sleepless nights formatting when my system wouldnt boot into windows; overclocking....etc. I NEED HELP. PLEASE. PLEASE. Anything could work at this point.  
         I'm trying to get more info on how to run my system at a 5:4 ratio, also.  
    If anyone has problems like me or knows what could be the problem with my system, please reply to this post, it would help me a lot. I've been trying to fix these problems for a few months now so anything is greatly appreciated.  

    Thanks a lot to you guys that responded. I brought my computer home this past holiday and I want to let you know where I stand as of now. I guess this thread is like my blog for my computer. I want to clear some things before my first post makes everyone confused.
    1- I have only 2 sticks of memory in my system: the Corsair PC3700 TwinX 512x2
    I returned the 3 KingMax I bought, and still keep my old stick just in case.
    2- I am using the 400 watt power supply that came with the case. I read some reviews of the case and I know the reviewer did not have problems with the power supply. In my BIOS, there are some voltages it is weak on. Lets say: it it should be 5.00+, my power supply will be feeding it 4.96v or something like that, but I dont know, or think, that is a major problem...
    3- My computer will refuse to boot if memory speeds are set at anything below 400. SO....if I want to use a 5:4 ratio and have to set my memory speeds to "333" in BIOS, my system refuses to boot.
    4- This morning, I did manage to overclock my FSB to 250. Specs are as follow:
    Memory Timing @3,4,4,8,4.....speed set at "AUTO".....MAT at "SLOW"
    MY 2.4C's FSB was raised to 250 = 3.0gig  
    AGP/PCI frequency: 67.xx/3x.xx (cant go any lower)
    CPU voltage: 1.5500
    Memory voltage: 2.75
    Video Card voltage: 1.7
         Everything was fine for the whole day until I heard something click in my computer around midnight, and then seconds later, my computer froze and made a continuous beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep. (you can imagine)
         This "click" and system crash has been plaguing me for months now. I dont know whay it happens. I was just using AIM when I heard the click and my heart stopped.
    My memory speeds have been set to "AUTO" even at the FSB of 250. But I don't know if this still means my system is at a 1:1 ratio. I know the BIOS then adjusts the memory to work at 500 if my FSB is 250...so I assume it is?    I love 3gig, but somehow I feel that 2.8 is faster, since the FSB=233 running parallel to my memory, also at 233
    A FSB of 250 is good enough for me, that's what I've been waiting 6 months for. If anyone knows how to set other ratios to achieve a FSB of 250+, please let me know, but as I said, my memory won't boot if its set at "333"

  • How do I use my gift card instead of my credit card?

    I have always used gift cards to buy my music off of Itunes, but when I recently used it I only had 25 cents left. So when I clicked on the music to buy it, it showed me all of my account information and asked for the security number to the credit card that I have listed under my account. But my parents didn't want me using their credit card, so my mom bought me some more gift cards. I redeemed the money on the cards, but for whatever reason it still takes me to the "Billing Info" and asks for the security number, even though I have money already in my account from the gift cards. Until then, I am unable to purchase any new music. How do I switch back to using my gift cards and not the credit card?

    It is a security measure that has been implemented in iTunes.
    When it asks for the security info on the CC, make sure to uncheck *Do not use this card for this purchase* (or something similar).
    It will then use the gift card for the purchase.

  • NEED help on choosing a new VGA video CARD for 875pNEO-LRS mobo.

    I've purchase a GEforce4 MX440SE 4x/2x 128mb DDR (Taiwain base company made it)...however on their manual & web site..I cant find the voltage info. of it. Thats why I worry that if its not 1.5v 4x AGP card, I will ruin my new mobo.  My first question is that if there is a way that I can test the voltage of it.  I really dont want to wast the money I already spent on it.  However if its my only choice is to buy a different one ... Please post what type of Video CARD you guys are using for this mobo.  Your input will be much appreciate it.  

    Hi
    I'am using a Sapphire Radeon 9000 Atlantis PRO 128Mb on my mobo, works fine. One thing. Dont't use the drivers on the cd that comes with the card. Get the fresh stuff from ATI's site.

  • Overclocking my PT880 got best results with a PCI video card instead of a AGP card. Why?

    Hi guys,
    I posted a complete review of my PT880 OC experience at the "Overclocking section of the forum: thread post PT880 OC results" : https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?threadid=48006&sid=&threadview=0&hilight=&hilightuser=0&page=2
    Some days of test with my new PT880 board and I was able to run my P4 (B?) 2.4Ghz at 18 x 154 = 2772 Mhz. I got this speed using a cheap PCI card XFX GeForce 4 MX440, from my old P3 computer. I also got system to work with higher FSBs, but with some unstable sound board issues that I related on the link above.
    This week I decided to change the card to another same cheap XFX GeForce 4 MX440, but now a AGP 8x version. My surprise is that the system started to hang with just 20~30 seconds of use. Setting the front side bus to 133 helped to fix the stability issue. Playing a bit more I could OC using a 144 FSB, getting a final speed of 2592. Trying higher FSBs results in a unstable system again.
    This makes me wondering if the AGP/PCI is really locked. Using 144 FSB, it is supposed that an unlocked AGP port will be running at 72 Mhz, what is the limit for some AGP cards... My BIOS setup is using the AGP clock option at the default of 66Mhz. Is it really working at this speed?  
    If the AGP/PCI bus speed is really locked in this VIA PT880 MSI motherboard, why this difference in OC results when I change from a PCI to an AGP card (same manufacturer, same nvidia chipset) ? Will be the northbridge more occupied now?  
    My PC setup now:
    - MSI PT880 LSR with Bios upgraded to 1.4
    - Pentium 4(B? 533Mhz) 2.4Ghz
    - 512Mb DDR PC3200 NonECC ADATA Memory (just one module, so just single channel)
    - XFX GeForce4 MX440 AGP8x
    - Seagate 120Gb 7200RPM ATA100
    - Seagate 80Gb 7200RPM ATA100
    - Prolink PlayTV HD (conexant cx88)
    - Sound Blaster Live! 4.1
    - LG DVD-RW 4040b
    - 450W generic PSU
    That's all for now  

    Your AGP bus uses more bandwith than the PCI bus, thus making the OC more dependend from the AGP bus. And if your AGP slot will drain more CPU power and fragile as AGP can be, it will not tolerate errors due higher clock speeds. Mhz += Stability -. Notice: PCI is 33 Mhz/ AGP is 66/133 Mhz... . As you see there is less margin for errors. While you overclock the CPU will make tolerable errors: NP with PCI... But AGP... will take it to the MAX. [I hope this reply is No nonsense]

  • Why won't my outstanding account be deducted from iTunes card instead of my debt card

    Hi just wondering how do I pay money owed to I tunes from my iTunes card that I just redeemed it keeps takings back to my account billing page there is no money in my bank account how do I pay account with the credits I just redeemed please help me!!

    OK - thanks Tim - I'm not sure to understand why Apple insists on this.
    Afterall, I am able to use my French credit card for any number of foreign merchants (wherever their websites
    are 'geographically' based :  all over Europe, the US and probably elsewhere as well).
    Still at least you have confirmed what the problem is. Thankyou!

  • Pay for in app purchase with itunes card instead of my credit card.

    I have a current debit card on my iTunes account  which has no money in the account. i have recently purchased a iTunes gift card and want to buy in app item but don't want it charged to the account with no money in it. If i go ahead and redeem it and make the purchase, will it take the money from my iTunes account or my Credit card? If so how i could i change it otherwise?

    It'll take the money from the gift card's balance automatically if allowed for that specific purchase. You don't have any control over whether or not it'll be allowed.

  • Paying for itunes with a credit card instead of gift card

    I currently have $ on an itunes gift card and this gift card's balance is on my itunes.  I got an email from Am. Ex. that if I use $5.00 on my credit card on itunes, I GET $5.00 for itunes.  Problem is, every time I download a song it comes off my gift card balance.  How do I change to the Am Ex credit card on file to pay for my songs instead of the gift card?

    Really late on this, but just in case anyone has this question: anytime you "gift" something on the itunes store to someone else, it charges your credit card instead of your gift card. Simply send the "gift" to your own email (perhaps not associated with your apple ID) and then just redeem the code it sends you in your itunes account
