Help!! What kind of graphics card can I upgrad my G5 1.8ghz dual?

Can anyone help me to find a graphics card for my G5 Tower 1.8Ghz dual core in order to install final cut studio2 and be able to use all of the software? My cpu came with NVDia GeForceFX 5200 (not Ultra).
Which Graphics card can I use or should I use to run the whole final cut studio2 (especially Motion 3 and Color)? Please help.

Hi-
So, you have a Dual 1.8 PPC G5, correct? 8x AGP graphics(?).
The two choices that you have, are, the ATI Radeon X800XT, or the Geforce 6800 Ultra.
Here are some benchmarks for comparison sake. Note that the 9800 is a possibility, but the X800 is better for FCP.
This benchmark shows how pitiful the 5200 really is.
One other option, is a flashed Geforce 7800 GS. These benchmarks show the possibilities.

  • What kind of graphics cards can I get?

    I have a Compaq Presario CQ50 107NR
    My graphics card is GeForce 8200M G
    I need a  better graphics card but I do not know what is compatible with the laptop. Can someone give me a list of upgraded graphics cards I can get? I am wanting to play Diablo 3 but my card is too weak.

    Hi:
    The video adapters are not upgradable without replacing the entire motherboard. The only motherboard I see with better graphics has the GeForce 9200M, which I doubt will be much better.
    You would be better off selling or trading your notebook in and buying one with the graphics solution you are looking for.

  • What kind of graphics card should i get to run final cut pro x on my 2008 mac pro?

    What kind of graphics card should i get to run final cut pro x on my 2008 mac pro?

    Hello Andres. I own an Early Mac Pro 2008, and have had the blessing of using both FCP X & Motion 5 for some time now. This is a pritty open question and it depends on your usage and the throughput nessesary to handle your work load. I can share what my set up is, & it may help you deside if this is enough power for you or help you move in another direction. Keep in mind that the buss speed and cpu are a big part of helping FCP X more so than the video card, although the video card does come into play here as well. Now if you are wanting to run Motion 5 as well, the video card is Almost Everything, and you need the biggest and best situation here that the throughput on this system will except. I'm running 14 gig of system ram, and the video card is an ATI Radeon 5870. For FCP X, running 1920x1280p footage optimised in pro-res 422, she can move along with some render time nessesary when dropping on the timeline, also filters, transistions, titles ex, have a bit of a laps time to render, but then she runs ok. This wait is not as much of a challenge with this set up as with Motion. I need a much bigger gpu on the video card for this app. Not sure if this computers throughput is really worth the upgrade. Beleive this though, Motion is demanding on using ALL you can give it. It is a Genious App, and it also calls for ALL THE POWER YOU CAN GIVE HER IN A VIDEO CARD. Conclution: if you are just starting which it sounds like, even a smaller video card than this can work For FCP X. Make sure you have at least 8 gig of cpu ram. 12 or more will help here. Also make sure the card is OpenCL compadible.....& this is in the thread above,,,,,,,,

  • What kind of graphic card do I need for second screen?

    I have a Mac Pro with GTX 680 card that outputs to a 27" Cinema Display and 42" TV. The TV screen is a few frames of, so I understand I need a separate videocard for the TV so I can adjust this with frame offset in FCP.
    What kind of card is suitable for this? There is 30m distance from Mac to TV, is this too long for HDMI cable?

    I don't know.  My experience with Aja IO card is that's it's more complicated configuring it (at least with fcp7).  I have a friend with a macpro and every time we need to use it, it requires playing around with control panel and the view settings within fcp.  Maybe operator error.  The BlackMagic just usually works although I found with Avid Media Composer 7, if you tried to load material that didn't match the project settings, you could not get the project to every play out through the intensity.  You'd have to create a new project and open your existing bins in the new project.  Took me a while to figure out what was going on. 
    Aja's support is supposedly much better, but I did get answers via email from blackmagic with the avid issue.  Took a few days, but they did come thru.

    In simple words the problems is that your mainboard is too old and don't have PCI-E slot...
    Read the replies which you have above 1st..
    As mates and MSI Tech as well notified you can't use PCI-E VGAs into your board...
    You need a AGP one, here is examples of VGA's that can use:
    Ati: (few good choices)
    Radeon X1950PRO: http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=proddesc&prod_no=1146&maincat_no=130&cat2_no=137

    Nvidia: http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=prodpage2&maincat_no=130&cat2_no=136&cat3_no=139
    At all you can use any AGP VGA... Just make sure that your PSU is powerfull enough.

    Without any system information nobody can advise. What operating system? What system specs? What graphics hardware do you use currently? What input device? What settings in Photoshop? We could tell you to buy the latest and greatest card out there, but that might not at all resolve your issue because it#s caused by something else....

  • What kind of Graphics used in Java

    Hi,
    I want to ask what kind of graphics are used in Java Games. Actually my question is about objects that are other then our Game Objects....like back ground images, other objects present in interface. Are these build using Java OR images are used for that. I will be grateful to if some one can tell about it separately about back ground , other objects in the game.
    Thanks for any help.

Your answer is yes, both are used. It all depends on the game. Basically in any of the games you have a background image, could be blank or what ever, and you render your objects onto it. From that point it depends on what you are doing in the game as to what happens... it could be a simple screen update or it could be you're running an animation loop and inserting updates with your objects as needed. It just depends.

  • T430, disable "OS Detection for NVIDIA OPtimus" in BIOS, no graphic card can be found in Windows

    I try to use my T430 minidisplayport to connect with external display. But it is so unstable that the connection between laptop and display can lost anytime. That is so annoying. I use Nvidia control panel in Windows to force use NVS5400M instead of HD4000, but it seems doesn't change anything.
    I heard if I select the discrete graphic card in BIOS, then it may fix the display connection lost problem. Then I go to the BIOS and  set the "discrete", and disable "OS Detection for NVIDIA OPtimus" in BIOS Config Display (This is necessary otherwise the laptop will change it back to Optimus automatically.). But after I log into Windows, then no graphic card can be found, Why? How should I fix this problem?
    The external display issue in T430 is so annoying. The VGA suffers very serious noise while the minidisplay is so unstable. Even worse, there is no any lenovo staff stand out to help !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    If anyone has experience, please share that.
    Thank so much.

    Hello Mark, thanks for help. Please see my answers below:
    1. Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bits.
    2. Yes, I did. The BIOS is latest (2.65). The NVS5400M driver is 333.02.
    3. My display is Asus MX239, which only has HDMI. I use an adapter cable: miniDP->HDMI and then an HDMI-HDMI cable I try to connect to a Samsung TV, but similar. I don't have a miniDP to HDMI cable. I just order one but has not get it.
    Sorry that I post in multiple threads. As I mentioned in that thread, let me conclude all these here.
    After I disable "OS Detection for NVIDIA OPtimus" in BIOS, then I istalled the NVS5400M 333.11 driver. Then the NVS5400 can be found in Windows. But the displayport problem still exist. It is still very very difficult to detect external monitor (this means in most cases I can't switch to external display), and even sometimes it works, the connection can lost anytime.
    Even worse, I found a new problem, that if I disconnect my T430 with power supply, then I can see the "pink bar" appear and disappear in the laptop screen (not external monitor) repetitively, quickly. I have never seen this problem before, only after I install NVS 333.11. Then I reinstall the 333.02 driver. Then I enabled the "OS Detection for NVIDIA OPtimus" in BIOS again. The "pink bar" issue gone. It looks like the issue is caused by 333.11 driver. But this driver comes from Nvidia offical driver download website.
    So now the most important thing I need help is, I need to have a stable solution to connect external display. In T430, there are only two ports for external display:
    1. VGA
    2. MiniDisplayPort
    Please help me following questions:
    1. When I try to use VGA, I can see very very bad noise in external display. This issue also be posted in previous thread in forum. This should be a hardware design failure. Is there any solution to fix this that I can use VGA without noise in external display?
    2. My T430 has both HD4000 and NVS5400M, if I need to use miniDP (which is I prefer, I have digital port why I use VGA.) for display. Does miniDP only work when the NVS5400 is used (it looks like that)?
    3. If miniDP only works NVS5400, so how should I configure to ensure the T430 use NVS5400 all the time? Do I have to disable "OS Detection for NVIDIA OPtimus" in BIOS or I can switch using Nvidia Control panel in windows ?
    4. Would you please provide me a configuration for T430 (include BIOS, and setting in Nvidia Control panel) that can support stable external display thru miniDP? Include driver versions and BIOS version.
    5. What are potential reasons that the external display can't be detected and can lost connection anytime with T430? To be noted, I already set to use NVS5400 in Nvidia Control panel. The case is also same I disable "OS Detection for NVIDIA OPtimus" in BIOS. I think cable may be a issue.
    Thanks again.

  • What kinds of graphics do you convert to PDF, and why?

    I work on new ideas for Document Services. Many people convert graphics to PDF, and we'd like to know more. What kinds of graphics do you convert to PDF? And why? Are there features we could add to Create PDF that would be useful to you? Please let us know - it'll help us build better products.

    To transfer video you will need a IEEE1394 (Firewire) cable.  The Sony name for this is an i.Link and is labeled as DV on the camcorder.  The end of the cable that connects to the camcorder must be a 4-pin connector.  The end that connects to the computer is either a 4-pin connector (usually a laptop) or a 6-pin (a desktop PC).  Of course all of this depends on whether or not your computer has a Firewire port. If you computer does have a firewire port you will need to know whether or not is a Firewire 400 or 800 port.  It's not hard to tell the difference by looking at your computer as the 400 and 800 cables have different connections on the end that you plug into the computer. 

  • What kind of cool things can you do with the ipad and macbook combined?

    I was wondering what kind of cool things can be done between the macbook pro and the ipad mini. For example syncing and other ways of communication between the two devices.

    How to sync
    Enable "Find my iPad" in Settings > iCloud. Put your name on the back. Losing it is not cool.
    Make it easy for someone to find you when you misplace it:
    Tape a business card to the back.
    If that is inelegant then make a pretty label with a phone number so that when you lose it, there is the possibility you can be reunited with it and perhaps meet someone nice as well.
    Enable "Find my iPad" in Settings > iCloud. This enables you to send a message or play a loud noise should you misplace it.
    Disable "in-app purchases" in Settings > General > Restrictions. This prevents unauthorized or unintentional purchases, some of which are expensive. You will need a password. Don't forget your password.
    Sync it to a computer running iTunes. Back up the computer because the iPad is not a backup. If it's a Windows computer, have several backups. Windows computers die with predictable regularity for a number of reasons. Your iPad is synced to one and only one computer at a time, so if its mate is lost then its content will be erased when you replace your computer. Extracting content from your iPad is not trivial and not free.
    The Remote app enables you to control your MacBook's iTunes library remotely, along with an AirPort Express, you have a remote control for your stereo.

  • What kind of wireless card I need for my Power Mac G5 (late 2005) Dual 2 GH

    hi there,
    I have for sometime now a "Power Mac G5 (late 2005) Dual 2 GHz PowerPC G5", and recently I have been thinking to get an Airport extreme wireless card with a bluetooth on it, which could work on my machine.
    I have already try to deal with apple representatives and Apple sales people to give me a hand on the matter and so far is been a nightmare to approach this guys, tired of wasting time and effort, so that is way I am posting a topic on this section to see if you guys could give a hand on the matter.
    All what I would like to know is what kind of wireless card I need for my Power Mac G5 (late 2005) Dual 2 GHz PowerPC G5 (version 10.4.11) and where I could buy one on line to install myself.
    This is the mac unit I have.
    Dual 2 GHz PowerPC G5.
    Hardware Overview:
    Machine Name: Power Mac G5
    Machine Model: PowerMac11,2
    CPU Type: PowerPC G5 (1.1)
    Number Of CPUs: 2
    CPU Speed: 2 GHz
    L2 Cache (per CPU): 1 MB
    Memory: 4.5 GB
    Bus Speed: 1 GHz
    Boot ROM Version: 5.2.7f1
    Thanks for you time.
    regards

    You're welcome. Funny how Apple works isn't it? If it's any consolation, that Airport/Bluetooth card doesn't show up on the Apple U.S. store either. I don't think they ever intended it to be a user installable part, so perhaps that's why they don't offer it for sale. Do you have any Apple Authorized Service providers in your area? I'd think they'd be able to order the card as a replacement part.
    Can you give a little more detail or a link to the gadget you're referring to? It sounds like a USB dongle to enable Wi-Fi, but that must be a third party solution, since I don't believe Apple ever offered something like that.

  • What kind of KVM switch can I use to monitor sun rack with 490s, 245s, and

    Hi,
    What kind of KVM switch can I use to monitor sun rack with 490s, 245s, and T2000s ?
    Ushas Symon

    It sounds like the customer and server room operator are using a Microsoft/X86 mindset. There are several selling points on using RSCs & SCs. First off are the big 3 that are easy for any good server room operator to understand: cost, space & power. If you don't have to buy a 1U Tripp-lite pull out rack KVM console ($1700) and a video card for each of your SUN servers ($400, yes SUN vid cards are $$$), you start off by saving several thousand dollars.
    Next you need to let them know that you require remote access to the systems from your desk and a standard KVM doesn't allow this (with Unix, if you have to get up from your desk then its a hardware problem). They can choose to purchase a network enabled KVM, but that adds $700 to your $1700 KVM. By using the SC you will be able to administer the system remotely.
    Third, remember that SUNs do not show all the critical boot information on a frame-buffer console output. If you are in diagnostic mode during boot, the monitor doesn't show results until it completes. If some process is stuck (missing NFS or fibre-channel hard mounts, memory tests, etc) then you need to be able to see it to fix the problem. Plus, console frame-buffers only give you 25 lines of output that you can't scroll back.
    The only small hitch is security. The new SCs (on T5220s) have SSH built in, but the older V240s and V490s use telnet which some security people balk at. The solution that we used is to put the older system SCs on a private LAN. Access to that private LAN from our intranet is via a SSH enabled dual-homed (non-routing) workstation with local user accounts. We SSH to that workstation & then telnet to the SC on the relevant server. That solution allows me to access our servers that are 40 miles away, saving response time to solve customer problems. A crude diagram is below:
    your workstation------intranet------[dual homed, non-routing workstation]------[inexpensive switch]------[server SC]
    Good luck.

  • What kind of log I can get with "level informational" - c2950 & 6500

    Hello, everybody, It is nice to meet you. I am working in Tokyo in japan as network engineer.
    It is my first time to write something on here Cisco Support Community and I don't speak English very well.
    So I hope everyone understand my pour question and writing. But I wish somebody anwser to this question.
    I am using kiwi sever to manage four of 6500 and about thirty of c2950.
    The kiwi server is working normally logging both 6500's syslog and c2950's.
    But I have question about difference between 6500's level informational and c2950's.
    For example, When I log in 6500 I can get a log from my kiwi server.
    And When I enter some command to change config I can also get a log from my kiwi server.
    However When it come to c2950 I can't get the logs. I can only get logs that notice 'interface up/down' or 'changed config' stuff like that.
    I think I have correct config about logging both 6500 and c2950 as follow.
    Trap logging: level informational, OOOOO message lines logged
            Logging to XX.XX.XX.XX, OOOOO message lines logged, xml disabled,
                   filtering disabled
    Anybody know what kind of log I can get with "level informational" on c2950.
    Thanks everybody.

    Information is a fairly low severity which means you'll get everything except debugging messages.  This includes link up/down, config change,
    CPU hog, etc.  If you're not seeing messages other than link up/down and config change, then there may not be anything else happening on the switch which triggers a log message.  Check the output of "show log".  That should agree with your syslog logs.
