Thanks and can Best Buy install graphic cards for me?

It also depends on the voltage rails (12v and 5v I believe) If you have a weaker number, some of these cards can make toast of the computer in no time!

Just get a new motherboard. You can get a cheap one that supports all the hardcore nvidia/ ati models for less that $100.

Compatible Graphics Card for M9400F???

I have an HP M9400F Running Windows 7 Pro 64bit. The computer came with a ATI Radeon HD 3650
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883107730
I want to run Sony Movie Studio Platinum 12 these are the graphics card requirements
Supported NVIDIA or AMD GPU:
NVIDIA
Requires a CUDA-enabled GPU and driver 270.xx or later.
GeForce GPUs: GeForce GTX 4xx Series or higher (or GeForce GT 2xx Series or higher with driver 285.62 or later).
Quadro GPUs: Quadro 600 or higher (or Quadro FX 1700 or higher with driver 285.62 or later).
NVIDIA recommends NVIDIA Quadro for professional applications and recommends use of the latest boards based on the Fermi architecture.
AMD/ATI
Requires an OpenCL-enabled GPU and Catalyst driver 11.7 or later with a Radeon HD 57xx or higher GPU. If using a FirePro GPU, FirePro unified driver 8.85 or later is required.
What would be my best upgrade option? Im leaning Quadro 600 or higher but Im at my wits end trying to find what is compatible, whether I need to upgrade the 350w power supply.
I would like to run dual monitors and have a little more than what I need. I don't want to have to upgrade again for awhile I guess.
Would the Quadro 600 be compatible? That would take me from 512mb gpu to 1gb but a guy at Best Buy said it doesn't pay unless I go up to 2gb which takes me up to Quadro 2000D which is $250 more. I would do that if it doesn't really pay to even get the 600.
Sorry Im lost when it comes to this. Any advice is greatly appreciated

Quadros and FirePros are business cards, so quite expensive.
A Geforce GT640 would have 2 Gb too and work with a 350W psu.
Compare it with a Quadro FX 3700 or 3800 - it's one step before Q2000.

Compatible graphics cards for my motherboad?

Hi guys
I would really appreciate it if someone would tell me what graphics cards I can upgrade to on my PC.
Right now I have intergrated graphics, and would like to remove that one and put in a dedicated graphics card instead.
Also I would like to do this because my x32 version of Windows isn't showing the full 4GB of RAM I just installed and is instead showing 3.49GB of RAM. (Before I added the two extra RAM cards I had 1.99GB of RAM). And yes all 4 RAM cards are installed in Dual Channel mode. The Bios shows that I currently have 4096MB of RAM, but Windows shows 3.49GB. Anyway, I'm certain the left over RAM is being allocated to the integrated graphics. I know x32 OS won't make use of the entire RAM installed, but I'm just wondering if this can be fixed if I just remove the on board graphics and replace it with a dedicated one that uses it's own memory?
If that won't get my x32 Windows to show that I have 4.00GB of RAM like it says in my bios screen, then I understand, since it is a x32 OS anyway, but I would still like to know if a dedicated graphics card would fix this.
If it can't fix the RAM issue, then I will just like to change my onboard graphics card to a dedicated one either way. But I would like to know what graphics cards are compatible with my motherboard. I will leave my PC specs and motherboard specs below.
PS: My intergrated graphics card is a PCI card. I would prefer a 'much better' dedicated PCI graphics card. The reason for this is because I only have just 1 PCI-e x16 slot and that is being used by my Asus Wifi card. So PCI graphics cards only guys.
Thanks
My PC specs: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00705316&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&cc=us&dlc=en...
My motherboard specs: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00864946&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en

The motherboard RAM issue is moot. It is a given, all 32bit computers have about 3.3 - 3.6 GB of RAM available when you install 4GB's. There's no spiriting away of RAM to the video, in most cases. What you see is really what's there. OK???
Your request of a PCI graphics card leaves little choice for a maximum situation/remedy.  This card does have a slight hurdle. It's going to need an adapter to get the video to your VGA monitor (guessing). The DMS output cable provided is a dual DVI-I output. You still need a DVI-I to VGA adapter on one of the two output lends.
Although you've got a 300W PSU (likely rated at 235W sustained), the card adds 19W.   You might get away with it, but the manufacturer implies a 400W PSU per their website.
Someone might offer a rebuttal to the PCIEx16 slot for a wi-fi card, let me remark it's good choice:
The 82945G/82945GC/82945P/82945PL (G)MCH processor contains one 16-lane (x16) PCI Express port intended for an external PCI Express graphics card. The PCI Express port is compliant to the PCI Express* Base Specification, Revision 1.0a.   This is what your computer has, 1.0a        http://www.intel.com/Assets/PDF/datasheet/307502.pdf
Overall motherboards designed for v2.0 will work with the other being v1.1 or v1.0a.
PCI Express 2.1 supports a large proportion of the management, support, and troubleshooting systems planned for full implementation in PCI Express 3.0. However, the speed is the same as PCI Express 2.0. Unfortunately, the increase in power from the slot breaks backward compatibility between PCI Express 2.1 cards and some older motherboards with 1.0/1.0a, but most motherboards with PCI Express 1.1 connectors are provided with a BIOS update by their manufacturers through utilities to support backward compatibility of cards with PCIe 2.1.

Now the real issue is your system. You do know that WIN XP is now in non-support mode. It has ended its lifecycle. There will be no MS updates.

Compatible graphics cards for AE 6.5

I currently am running AE 6.5 and need to change Graphics cards but I don't know what is compatible with it. Does anyone happen to know? Thanks for any input.

I teach and have 25 pcs in my lab and with the NJ money problems new pcs
or software are no longer a possibility. I just remember when we first
bought 6.5 there was an issue with some effects and at that time Adobe
furnished a list of compatible cards. They no longer have that info and
the documentation appears to be long gone from here.
Thanks for your response.

Need advice about second graphics card for PowerPC G5

My boss bought me a second monitor for our office computer, so we can use two monitors on one computer. The problem is we need a second graphics card to handle the second monitor and I'm not sure what to buy.
The computer is a Dual 2.7 GHz Power PC G5.
The second monitor that my boss gave me is a View Sonic HD Widescreen LCD with a DVI-D single link connector.
What should we buy to make all of this work together? The company I work for is very cheap, so we need to do this rather inexpensively.

You don't need a second card (which would kill several advanced features on the main card anyway) but a card with two appropriate output connectors.
What card is in the machine at present? Open System Profiler in /Applications/Utilities and click on the Graphics/Displays item under Hardware, viz. this screen grab:
The top bold-face line will have the information you need, plus if two monitors are supported (which I am betting is true) one of the displays entries will be "No Display Connected." I am pretty sure that any card that came with the 2.7 originally has two video connectors, probably DVI. According to the specs listed on the Power Macintosh specs pages, the 2.7 base card had a single-link and dual-link pair of DVI connectors.

Jumpman,
Please reply after you have measured the existing Power supply.
Is it a Min ITX (3.2 x 1.7 x 6) or a TFX (3.4 x 2.5 X 7)
Athena Power has just released a news article in Smart Computing that relates to their new product line of power supplies for the Slimline cases.
Just as an example, this card needs a minimum of 400W :http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150577
Caution: You can not use a graphics card that the Power Supply does not support (PINOUT and WATTAGE). Slimline power units do not have PCIE power plug(s), as yet. (See Athena if they have any).

Compatible graphics cards for old G5s

I have one of the original G5 Dual Core Macs, introduced durring the summer of 2003. Does anyone know what graphics cards are compatible with this machine that are 128mb and above? Preferrably still available somehow...

I also have one of the original Dual G5s from october 2003 and my Radeon 9600 is dying a horrible death and I am utterly disappointed that I cannot find a replacement anywhere. Especially from Apple, of all companies.
ATI's backlog on the 9600 and 9800 are 40+ days and of course the x800 is discontinued totally.
I can't wait possibly 6 weeks for a video card rom anywhere? ROHS ***** but!!!!!!

Can I up-grade the graphics card for my computer I got for christmas?

Hello, this christmas i got an new hp envy rove 20 k214.
I am hoping that my desktop is upgradable as what i really wanted was a pc that i could use over 5-7 years especially as my current occupation goes through some technological shifts.
I been reading up on all in on pcs. I now know that not all
in one pcs are upgradable especially the graphics cards?Some of the pcs in the envy series however do have slots for mxm graphics/video cards and/or a replacable processor card.
So, i be asking, "Is it possible for me to upgrade my new computers graphics card? Will will I need to possibly exchange this pc for another one?"

Hi,

Compatible graphics cards for the early 2008 Mac Pro 3,1?

I have an early 2008 Mac Pro 3,1 with the 2.66Ghz Quad core processor that is running Lion. I had an ATI Radeon Card in there that didn't last very long (I've read not great reviews about them recently) and now I need a replacement that will be compatible with my system and that will last me longer than my previous card did. The problem is I don't know what my options are. Can anyone reccomend me a viable replacement? I do video/audio production so something high end would be nice.
Thanks,

There are some good ideas, comments and tests just how much difference and in what applications.
The differences between 2.5GT and others are less than you might think.
There is no-compromise performance for some areas of CS6 and CUDA with ML and GTX 570 or above. The new EVGA GTX 660-Ti FTW w/ 3GB $330 looks to be very popular and that is the "mid-range" today, compared to $400-500 where GTX 680 sits or ATI 79xx series.
If you have to use 10.6.8 that is a bigger factor and some cards require 10.7.4 or later.
The 5x70 were average cards when they came out. There is no reason to have a system where early boot is totally dependent upon firmware and couldn't do basic video. Anyway some people are willing to swap out the 5770 and keep it just for debugging.
As to the original question: can't tell if you were interested in asking if a MacBook Pro Retina or something else... kind of hard to argue. A 12-core 3.33GHz with 48GB and 5 internal hard drives - it is hard not to do whateer you throw at it esp. if cost is not the primary concern but work is and it is suppose to pay for itself.

Need new low-end graphics card for Power Mac G5 (PowerPC 970)

My Power Mac G5 (PowerPC 970) has recently died I believe due to a bad
ATI RADEON X800 XT MAC EDITION video card.
Reason for thinking its the card, is that the machine was performing its intended tasks for several days even though the monitor was snow.
Having trouble determining a low-end replacement. (I no longer need the enhanced features of the RADEON X800 for this machine.
Much appreciated if someone could suggest a product appropriate for PowerPC 970.
Thanks!

I also ran into this issue with my dual G5. When I bought it, I didn't get wireless because it was a dedicated desktop on the network, but I'm upgrading and giving it to the kids to use in a room without wired network. Now that wireless would be really nice and it looks like the official solution is:
"Apple Wireless Upgrade Kit for Power Mac G5 Dual or Power Mac G5 Quad MA252G/A"
which is really expensive and difficult to install. But the weird thing is that I do have bluetooth. I wonder if there's just some little doodad I need to connect to get wireless going too, but I can't find any info on the card, and it looks like it's buried on the motherboard behind all the cooling stuff. I'll probably just spring for one of the USB solutions.

Need help with compatible cuda card for MacPro3.1

would NVIDIA Quadro 4000 work with MacPro3.1 early 2008 model?

Barefeats has tested and found 3,1's to have real performance issues, so what you get out of a card and while they work it may not be ideal. And I keep seeing more issues with the Early 2008 model than any others, the blasted way they tried to cobble two PCIe 1.1 slots along with two PCIe 2.0.
Hey MacVidCards- I saw someone on a thread say "leave the 3,1 for dead campaign.." Does this mean the 3,1 machines won't run the 780ti using PCIe v.2? I have a bunch of 3,1 machines, and it seems like a better idea to put dual 780ti cards in them all than buy 2013 nMP machines.
And again, Thanks for all the updates with this info!
No, we have found serious issues with GPU performance on 3,1 machines in Mavericks.
There is a thread at Netkas, I was able to move HD and GPUs from 3,1 to 4,1 and record massive differences.

Want to add Video and Graphic Card to my computer system

I Notice that one of the users' in the Apple discussion Board is Listed, (AndyO) he has help me many times in the Past and was succesful in my problrm solution, would he might be able to help me with this?
I had Purchased the Game Spore Creature Creator the Starter Kit which is just the Creature creator game and not the actual game itself. I wasn't able to install the the game on my computer because I don't have the right or not at all Video and Graphic Card install on my computer. I had Contacted the Company "EA" that puts out the Game Spore, this is what they said what the game requirements are: The minimum system requirements for Spore and Spore the Galactic Edition for Mac are as follows:
* Mac OS X 10.5.3 Leopard or higher
* Intel Core Duo Processor
* 1024 MB RAM
* At least 345 MB of hard drive space for installation, plus additional space for created creatures. (260 MB for the Trial Edition)
* Video Card - ATI X1600 or NVidia 7300 GT with 128 MB of Video RAM, or Intel Integrated GMA X3100
This game will not run on PowerPC (G3/G4/G5) based Mac systems (PowerMac).
For computers using built-in graphics chipsets, the game requires at least: an Intel Integrated Chipset GMA X3100 or Dual 2.0GHz CPUs, or 1.7GHz Core 2 Duo, or equivalent
Supported Video Cards
ATI Radeon(TM) series
* X1600, X1900, HD 2400, HD 2600
NVIDIA GeForce series
* 7300, 7600, 8600, 8800
Intel(R) Extreme Graphics
* GMA X3100
and that I need to upgrade my system. Basically I need; ATI Radeon 1600 or NVIDIA Geforce 7300 and a INTEL Extreme Graphic Video Card-GMA X3100, in order to be able to install and play this game. Since I already have this game, I would like to be able to upgrade my computer system which brings me to ask; does somone know or refer me to a web site that has and sells these Video and Graphic Card and supports for the Mini Mac?
Plus they say that I need a 1020 of MB of Ram, I Have already found that 1024 MB of Ram but I just need those Video and Graphic Cards for my computer system. I am adding my computer system Profile to my discussion board to show you what I have on my system, would you be able to tell me if I would be able to add these Video and Graphic card and the memory or Ram 1024 to my computer system?
Note: Here is a web site that I am looking at to add the 1024 MB of Ram to my computer system:

Hi Trisha,
The only modern Mac's with video cards are the Mac Pro and Xserve (server) systems. They both are priced quite a bit higher than any Mac Mini.
Some systems, like the Mac Book Pro laptop can be ordered with different graphics cards, but that has be done when the system is built, as it is not replaceable once the system is built. To find out which systems, go to store.apple.com. For each system that you select, you can see if there's an option for a better video card.

Hi:
Please see these related threads...
http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Hardware/Compatible-Graphic-Cards-for-HP-DC7800-SSF-Core-2-Duo-...
http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Hardware/Graphics-card-for-HP-Compaq-dc7800/m-p/2626147#M64231
The Radeon HD 6450 has pixel shader version 5.0.
I do not know what version vertex shader it has, but I would have to assume it is better than what your onboard graphics has.

I need a great compatible graphics card for my computer. (Specs Inside)
