Hard time figuring graphic card upgrade....

I have a Mac PPC G5 2GHz dual, bought new in mars 2006. I have a hard time figuring out what graphic cards I can use.
In Mactracker the graphic card specifics shown are for G5:s built late 2005 which allow Nvidia Geforce 6600 LE (which I also have now), Geforce 6600, Geforce 7800GT and Quadro FX 4500. Does not say anything about PCI or PCI-E.
Can I use PCI-E cards or only PCI? When I search for the 7800GT card it seems is is only a PCI-E available. And when I view hardware on my computers graphics/displays the 6600 LE is shown as a PCI card (not PCI-E).
The one I want to buy is ATI RADEON X1900 G5 Mac Edition 256MB. It is a PCI -E card.
If I cant use PCI-E cards, what cards would u recommend?
Appreciate all help.
Thanks

Hi-
Welcome to Discussions!
The dual core G5 (late 2005) is PCI express graphics.
The ATI Radeon X1900 G5 Mac Edition is PCI express.
You can use the X1900, just as you wish!
Here are some benchmarks.

  • I'm trying to make a time sheet and include a grid, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to print a full grid on my spreadsheet.  There are options for shaded grids but I want a defined grid, and I have spent the last 2 hours looking for the answer

    I'm trying to make a time sheet and include a grid, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to print a full grid on my spreadsheet.  There are options for shaded grids but I want a defined grid, and I have spent the last 2 hours looking for the answer.  Any ideas?

    Hi Cynthia,
    Are you planning to have this table do any of the calculation, or is is to be used as the electronic equivalent of a sheet of paper with a grid printed on it—a place to record the data.
    For your seven column table:
    Are you using one or more rows at the top of the table to label the data below? If so, you might want this row (or these rows) to be set as Header Rows.
    Are you using the leftmost column to label the rows? If so, you may want this column to be a Header column.
    The default table supplied on the "Blank" templates contains one header row and one header column. If you need more (or fewer) Header rows or columns, select the table, then go Table (menu) > Header Rows > (choose the number you need). Repeat to set the number of Header Columns.
    To make a seven column table from the table supplied by default, click on any cell in column H (The eighth column), and drag right to add more cells to the selection, until you get to the last column of the table. With these cells selected, Go Table > Delete Columns.
    To make the remaining seven columns fit across a single page:
    Go View > Show Print View to show the table as it would appear when printed to paper.
    Select the table by clicking its icon in the Sheets List to the left (easy method), OR by carefully clicking on the outside boundary of the table itself (fiddley method).
    With the table selected, you will see square white handles at each corner and at the middle of each side (including the top and bottom).
    With the mouse, grab the handle in the middle of the right side of the table and drag right (or left) until the table just fits onto the width of the defined page.
    With the table still selected, set the thickness and colour of the cell boundaries using the Gaphics Inspector (as described by Jerry), or using the Stroke, Thickness and Color Well controls in the Format bar above the working portion of the Window.

  • Looking for Macbook Graphics Card Upgrade

    Hey,
    I recently saw a Graphics Card Upgrade Kit for a Macbook Pro and was wondering if Apple offers a Graphics Card Upgrade Kit for a Macbook.
    Thanks,

    Welcome to the discsussions!
    The graphics chipset is integrated into the logic board and cannot be replaced or upgraded.
    Are you sure you saw one for the MacBook Pro and not the Mac Pro desktop tower?

    Hi-
    I think you will find there are more users of the ATI Radeon 9800 that DON'T have a 300w PSU, than those that do. It would leave out the majority of the G4 line if it were absolutely necessary. As I see it, it isn't absolutely necessary, and, it is also the ONLY higher end upgrade graphics card commercially produced for 2x, 4x AGP systems, most of which, DON'T have a 300w PSU.
    My Sawtooth has a 237w PSU, and the 9800, and my processor upgrade, and 2 internal drives, all work just fine!
    As for the piggyback connection, that is how you connect the power to the 9800. A splitter molex cable is used to split power from the superdrive connection, between the superdrive and the 9800.

  • Need help with power supply & graphics card upgrades

    I have a HP Pavilion p6320y that I bought 8 months ago. AMD Phenom II x4820 Quad Core processor.   I play WoW and since the last big patch, have been suffering with low fps. I updated drivers and followed all the advice given to me by Blizz and finally figured out that my Nvidia GeForce 9100 (integrated graphics) isn't good enough anymore.
    I checked my computer and discovered that I have a 300w power supply (12V) and read on another post here that something stronger than 300w is needed to run a decent graphics card.
    Now for my questions:
    How much of a power supply can I upgrade to without hurting my computer, but will be enough to run a good card?
    What would be a good graphics card for this computer?
    I've been looking at the Nvidia GeForce GTX 460 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express graphics card and wonder if that will work on my computer.  Most of the nicer cards seem to be the PCI Express and I'm not sure if that will work.
    Any advice will be most helpful. I have some experience with the inner workings of my PC and would like to fix this myself instead of running to the closest computer shop and paying someone else to. Thanks!
    This question was solved.

    Well, you are starting out from a fairly low baseline with the integrated graphics. It will not cost much to have a substantial increase if all you want to do is run WoW without error messages. Yes, the 300w power supply is an issue and rules out any card that will require its own power (i.e. needs its own power cord like a hard drive) but there are several mid-grade cards that can run off bus power alone (i.e. just from the pci-e slot itself). Just taking a quick look at newegg.com I see the following:
    GeForce 9400 under $50
    Radeon HD 4650 under $50
    GeForce 9500GT a little over $50
    Any of these should get you where you want to be and not require a PS upgrade. The slot you have available is a PCI Express x16 slot so don't look at AGP cards; they will not work. If you want to install the card you mention you need to get a better PSU.

  • HP Pavilion A6603W Graphics card upgrading help.

    Current Graphics card:
    GeForce 7100 / nForce 630i (integrated into motherboard as a chip)
    Power supply#: ATX-250-12Z-REV-D7R  (250 Watts I believe?)
    Computer Model: ( HP Pavilion A6603W)
     Problem: Trying to figure out which is the best graphics card to upgrade with to keep up to date with the current games, such as : Battlefield, bad company 2, Just cause 2, Amnesia: Dark descent.
    Now as for the power supply, I am sure Ill need to upgrade that as well. But I found a pretty reasonable one online at fry's electronics:
    http://www.frys.com/product/5503410
    But as for the graphics card, I am completely lost here at what I kind I can buy and not buy. most of my games require to have at least DirectX10 or higher, which my graphics card only supports DirectX 9. I have also seen that some graphics cards require power slots? I am completely new to this and I would like to have support from users.
    Oh and by the way, the minimum I can spend is 250$
    any suggestions?
    Thank you for your time and consideration.

    Salko, to play the games that you mention, you will need a good mid-level video card.  I like XFX, BFG, EVGA, Sapphire and PNY in that order.  The main thing to check is the length of the card.  The newer cards that are 10" or longer may not fit in the space provided.  With a PSU that is at least 500W, you have allot of choices.    
    The Antec PSU should be fine.  However, I like OCZ and Corsair PSU's for superior clean, stable power.  They are both enthusiast/gamer PSU manufacturers.  Check Newegg for a PSU that has allot of reviews (read them) and is rated at least 4 eggs.  This is a good indicator of the quality of the product from those who are using it.

  • Glitches after graphics card upgrade

    After an unfortunate but brief fire in my GeForce GTX 570 graphics card, I was forced to upgrade to a GTX 660, which seems to have caused some odd issues with Firefox.
    After the computer has been sleeping, the scroll button icon no longer functions (I can use the feature, but the icon doesn't show up), and typically another graphical issue will occur, such as the close buttons and top bar completely disappearing, or the tabs becoming completely transparent.
    I've tried reinstalling Firefox twice, as well as resetting. I don't think that anything else was damaged in the fire, as the hard drives are separated from the rest of the components, and it does work. No other programs have these sort of issues.

    That seems to have fixed the scroll button problem, and three times after I logged back in everything worked, but this last time, the scroll button worked but the close/minimize/maximize buttons were gone and the top bar was missing, the tabs were still there, but those were gone.
    My graphics drivers are up to date, and no other programs seem to suffer from this issues.
    If it's worth noting, the time it didn't work was after the computer had automatically gone to sleep, and Firefox was open on the screen. When it's worked, I've put the computer to sleep, and Firefox was minimized.

  • M58 Graphic card upgrade

    HI everyoneI read some information on this forum about Thinkcentre M58, but nothing that can really help me.
    I want to buy a new graphic card and I would like to know if there are limitation about Graphic Cards that I can install on this machine.It's not understandable why a desktop computer cannot be upgraded if the motherboard has all the expansion slots needed! Thank you for any suggestions.Regards

    I don't know if the OP is still checking this thread, but I thought I would chime in anyways. Warning: long rambling post ahead.
    I had the same problems when I was looking for GPU upgrade options for my M58p (tower form factor), There wasn't too much information out there concerning aftermarket upgrades.
    If I recall correctly; the information I managed to find seemed to point out that the BIOS would only recognize AMD/Radeon cards up to the 4xxx series. For nVvidia I did find mention of the 9500 GT.
    Aside from BIOS limitations. The only limit there would be, is the power supply. I don't know what type of M58 your PC is. My M58p has a Delta Electronics (model# 280GB-C) 280 watt installed.
    ====
    Now for my personal experience 
    A few months after trying to figure out what GPU I could upgrade and having found nothing regarding cards newer than 5 years. I gave up the search and resigned myself to just having to build or buy a newer PC. On black friday; a local computer store had nVidia's low-end wonder GPU - the GTX 750ti - on for $120 with a 20 dollar mail-in rebate. Instead of letting the card sit in the box for a few months, while waiting for other parts to come on sale. I figured why not see if it can work in the M58p... IT DID!
    Disconnected the power from the tower.Installed the 750ti in the PCIe x16 slot. Reconnected power and booted to the BIOS and disabled the built-in intel graphics.Rebooted and the screen stayed black. After 2 minutes I thought the computer had hung. but then it rebooted on it own a second time and made it into Windows 7.Start menu>Right click on Computer> Properties> then clicked into Windows Experience index. The 750ti showed up.Installed nVidia's latest drivers and rebootedEnjoying a 500%+ increase in performance over intel built in graphics ====
    I've been running it with no hiccups for 2 months now and the PSU seems to be able to handle it with no problems. I'll see if I can dig up some screenshots that prove that the card is running and recognized and utilized by the operating system and since there are so many different sub-models of the M58 and M58p. I'll check to see what model my motherboard is and which BIOS it's running.
    So if Julian_ was able to install a GTX 750Ti does that mean i could potentally install a R7 250X?
    I have recently purchased a ex govt. M58 7484-AF3 (tower, not SFF case) for a very good price and and have also found an R7-250X 2G DDR5 for a steal and was wondering if its possible to use this on the OEM Lenovo board. I will be upgrading the PSU to accomidate the VGA card (plus other things like SSD, extra 4gb ram etc)

  • Start Up & Sleep Problem, considering graphics card upgrade, Leopard?

    Hi All,
    I've searched at length for this problem, and as a user rather than a tech have suspicions, rather than certainty.
    Have been suffering with my Mac Pro going intermittently to shutdown rather than sleep for a while, I've been living with that. But a new problem has appeared just in the last day or so, I don't necessarily think they are connected, but what do I know?
    The new problem is it seems for want of a better term my Pro stalls on start up, it took an hour before it started this morning, its really quite peculiar.
    I hit the start button, initial whirring, then stop, the machine appears to be off, but after 10-20secs, it starts again, then immediately stops, and repeat, and repeat. Strangely though, eventually it starts to get further into boot up each time, maybe it gets to the apple logo, and shutdowns, and repeats, and repeats, then OS X loading screen, shutdown, wait 10secs restarts on its own, eventually it gets to the deskstop and shuts down, before running eventually. It started doing this yesterday, thought it might be because I've moved it a couple of times, connecting an ethernet cable, (awkward having the socket on the back!). So I checked everything firmly seated inside, and very carefully hoovered out the dust (although that wasn't bad).
    Reset SMC, reset energy saver settings, ran the tech tool for the Apple Care disk, removed all my crucial.com extra ram, and inserted Apple's original heat sunked RAM, no change.
    Anyway its running now and as you can imagine if this going to get worse or a hardware component is on its last legs I'm busy burning dvds of important files, its used mainly for video editing, but I reckon 15 dvds ought to get the important business backed up! As I'm going to book it into Apple as its under an Apple Care policy.
    This has got me thinking, is it time to get some upgrades at the same time. No matter how much RAM I have installed, and it doesn't appear to use even half of whats onboard, I've struggled with Motion very slow, often crashing, especially when using HD or Pro Res HD video, so much so that I've stuck to Livetype, which is a shame as its limited, and limiting. I notice Livetype has been dropped FCS. If its not the RAM, is it the graphics card? I was thinking of upgrading Ati HD 3870, or better, but I'm unclear if these are only compatible with Leopard 10.5.x, hence considering upgrading to Leopard. And thought I'd get Apple to do the work at the same time.
    As to the start up problem, if it were a vehicle I'd be thinking it was damp electrics, and be spraying WD40 to dry it out, I'm not of course, but I'm thinking power supply, or a temperature issue, but as its working when running 4 hours and working nicely now (so long as I don't leave to 'sleep') I can't see it being an overheating issue.
    Anyway sorry to go on but thoughts/advice please?
    Its business critical machine, as a videographer although I bought this MacBook Pro, from which I'm typing, for just this scenario which I'll use at a pinch.
    Message was edited by: Northern Munkee

    You may want to just get one utility for now.
    At this point, do you need a new graphic card? then you need to upgrade to Leopard. If your software and system won't be a problem regardless of compatibility great, but make sure. Otherwise, Snow Leopard will likely require lots more upgrades and updates.
    But maybe doing an upgrade to Leopard and then test the waters with Leopard and Snow L. makes better sense.
    Only the "Early, Early" 2006-7 1st Gen Mac Pros can run 10.4.11 (or at least install and officially supported).
    The product pages have misleading information but you do need 10.5.7 for the 4870 which is your best graphics upgrade choice. The 3870 came out a year ago and requires 10.5.3+.

  • MSI P45 Neo-F, GeForce GTX 260 graphic card upgrade (Install resolved)

    Greetings,
    We recently built up starting from an MSI P45-F motherboard and running an Intel Core 2 Duo Processor on XP (we did not choose XP-64 waiting on Windows 7).
    We are attempting to upgrade the graphic card to the PCI express with a GeForce GTX 260 and are encountering a driver download error from Nvidia.
    Problem/Issue: While driver software is downloading, mid-way the screen goes black/blank and a single underscore cursor appears (remains indefinitely).
    We believed it could be a power supply issue as we are running an OCZ tech 600W stealth stream (we are certain there is sufficient amp), but clearly we must disable or uninstall the on-board graphic card (which may be causing a drain?).  We are looking under the Device Manager and unable to identify which is the actual on-board graphics in order to disable. 
    I have attempted to contact MSI directly; however there is a communication problem on my part since I have no idea what I'm doing ($40 bucks to have the card professionally installed is looking like a bargain right now, but think of the fun I will have with the Crysis expansion set on ULTRA).
    One side bar question, not important: I'm running 4 GHz RAM, but only 3.205 is appearing? what is the missing RAM being allocated to at idle (is that to the graphics?)?
    Any assistance you could offer would be greatly appreciated.
    Jay

    Greetings,
    Well - initially the lock up would occur when we started running the Nvidia driver download software.   After booting and performing a system restore (the normal OS load locked up, so we had no choice but to back date).  We then downloaded the driver from Nvidia on to a disk from another computer and started up the upgrading computer in safemode and inserted the disk, same error occurred - halfway through the install download the screen goes blank and stays with under score cursor 20+mins.
    We called Nvida and they claimed there may be may be driver conflict, so we removed all the drivers (with a driver sweep software-we wiped out allllll of the drivers, no problem) and loaded all drivers fresh and brand new. 
    Still same error occurred; We attempted to load the nvidia driver from the website -
    Carefully confirming that
    1.) we have sufficient amps (we calculated 46amps) to cover our build up. 
    *EDIT: IT WAS ACTUALLY 18amps (ALWAYS DOUBLE CHECK YOUR CALCULATIONS)
    2.) we also confirmed the motherboard has the correct slot and we correctly connected the correct (2) power cords. 
    EDIT: THERE IS NO PRIORITY TO CONNECTION, SO JUST BE AWARE THERE ARE TWO PLUGS AND BOTH FIRMLY INSERTED.
    We've called Nvidia and on the 5th time  , we were specifically told that it did not appear that the motherboard and graphic driver are compatible.[/flash] How could that be ??? did they give up???
    EDIT: THEY WERE INCORRECT, THEY DID NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM CORRECTLY.
    gfffffff*   We are just about giving up and preparing to package up the new card and taking the restock charge... 
    EDIT: NEVER GIVE UP!!!

    You do not really have to go higher than 8gb, I upgraded to 8gb and then went up to 16gb because I play a lot of Xbox 1 and PS4 level games while running a few programs

    If you do not get it, your GTX 760 will not run and your PC will turn off and tell you that you do not have enough power.
    You DO NOT have to configure in BIOS. When you plug in the display adapter, you plug it into your graphics card port. I use the HDMI port. After plugging in your card, plug into the HDMI port (if available or use DVI), turn on your PC and if the screen turns off or has no signal then you did not plug in the right port. Then just follow directions on software installation.
