If I upgade to my macpro 3,1 with a video card Nvidia Quadro FX 4801 can I still use my Cinema HD Display? Will I need an adaptor?

My video card ATI Radeon 2600 is sick. Works only some days. I would like to upgrade to Nvidia Quadro FX 4801 but it looks like it might have different video connections. I would like to continue to use my 2008 Cinema HD Display. Are these items complatable?

You don't need to spend $400, the 5770 will do fine, or I would go with Apple 5870 $449
Barefeats isn't testing the 4800 in any of their tests or since about 2009 before the 5770/5870 came out and the Quadro 4000.
But you can interpolate comparing where it sits to 8800 and others

Using DVI is not an issue. Not with any graphic cards.

MacPro whirring sound with Flash video

I have a MacPro (early 2008) with an ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT card. Whenever I'm on a website using Safari that displays Flash video (an ad or a slideshow, etc) I hear a medium-pitched whirring sound. Despite sticking my ear close to the inside of the Mac, I can't determine if it's coming from the video card, a fan, or a hard drive. I read that there is a recall on certain serials of this video card but the defect would cause distorted or no video at all. I'm using the latest version of Snow Leopard with 8gb ram. Mac Pro QuadCore Intel Xeon 2x2.8Ghz.
Any feedback is appreciated.

This could be coming from the fan on the video card. Think of it this way, when flash comes up on screen, it uses more video processing power. This in turn heats up the GPU, which in turn can increase the fan speed and thereby elevating the volume level of the fan in operation.
This isn't necessarily the issue, but there is a better than average possibility, and it does happen to fit the facts. How does it sound when you try other graphically intensive operations on the computer? If it does the same thing I think you have found your answer.
Doesn't necessarily mean anything is wrong, but I don't have alot for comparison as I have a pair of video cards in my computer, but they never got the chance to use factory cooling as before I installed them, I added Arctic Cooling Accelero Pro V2 to each card. These are super quiet.

MacPro 4,1/5,1 video cards and audio support

I have a MacPro5,1 2010 model and I am considering replacing the standard video card with a newer more powerful one which can support 4K displays. I have however seen a lot of reports of problems with Yosemite 10.10.2 and being unable to send audio via the Mini Displayport or HDMI ports on various replacement video cards.
I was wondering if anyone here had better news to report regarding this issue. If so what configuration is working for you?
Am I also right in thinking that all third-party cards regardless of inherent capabilities would be unable to do Displayport MST, and 4K 60Hz via HDMI in OS X?
PS. I would ideally want to retain the Mac boot screen on such a card. (PC flashed cards do not support this.)

I have already sent them an email and I am awaiting a reply but they will only be able to speak regarding the particular models of card they deal with, there maybe other models they don't handle that have better results - at least with regards to my list of requirements.

HT5019 MacPro laptop display and 2 external monitors (three displays). Can I have more than one application displayed at a time?

I would like to have my MacPro laptop display and 2 external monitors (three displays). Question, how can I have more than one application displayed at a time? IE: I would like email on one monitor, Finder on my laptop, and iTunes on the other. Possible?
With extended desktop, it appears that I can only have one application presenting at a time. Sort of defeats the purpose of having multiple displays.
I am using the HDMI and the mini HDMI connectors.

I have an Ipad and about to buy a macpro. My husband has a PC with a printer attached. Can I use the same printer or do I need to buy my own?

I have an Ipad and about to buy a Macpro. My husband has a PC with XP operating system with a printer/scanner. Do I need to buy my own printer or can we both use the same printer?

It depends. The Mac Pro may come with Lion, or at least 10.6.8, and some printers are no longer supported (Windows 7 either).
Also, you have to download drivers, sometimes from vendor. Sometimes apple has some thru software update, but not always.
without knowing printer make/model it is next to impossible to say for certain one way or another. If you do buy new printer, you can walk away with more power in injet, laser, and scanners to make it worthwhile. I had to update all of those when support was dropped. amazing how much faster and better the new models are, and for much less.
Though I would focus on Mac Pro -

MacPro 4,1 with ATI 5870 Kernel Panics with logs

Hello,
My system is a MacPro 4,1 with 8GB of RAM, 4 Internal HDs, and an Apple ATI 5870 video card that I upgraded to from the stock Nvidia GT120 a little over a year ago. I'm running 10.6.8 Snow Leopard.
I've had very little problems with kernel panics in the past, but in the past few days, the screen just goes blank without warning and I need to force a power down and restart the computer. It hangs in safe mode, in diagnostic mode and sometimes even during the startup process. It never goes for more than 10-15 minutes now without a kernel panic.
I have zapped the PRAM, run the TechTool Pro memory test, fixed the disk permissions and the boot drive to no avail. I even pressed the hardware SMC reset switch on the motherboard which I thought fixed the problem but a crash occured a soon after.
As a last resort, I removed the 5870 and re-installed the GT120 and things seem to be working fine, although video performance is obviously highly degraded.
Although I seem to know the the 5870 video card is the cause of these panics, I am unsure of why they suddenly began a few days ago. Does anyone have any suggestions or similar bad experiences with this card? Can it be repaired? Are there any fixes for this problem? Can you run diagnostics or fix the firmware on the card? The card is very expensive and no longer under warranty. I did notice that one of the gold contacts may be a little damaged, but I can't be sure.
I'm including two of the many logs I've saved. I can attach more if need be.
thanks,
Nick

The first one died because it claims the ATI card powered down:
ATICLASS::detectPowerDown: GPU is not found. PCI config access fails!!!
The second one is an uncorrectable RAM error.

The two reports make it look like you have only one 8GB memory module, and that module does not provide the common information.

Hi, I've just up-dated my OS in my MacPro 3.1 from 10.5 to 10.6.8 and can't seem to install my Logic Pro 8, any advise? can I install my Logic 8 in the 10.6.8 OS? Thanks

Hi, I've just up-dated my OS in my MacPro 3.1 from 10.5 to 10.6.8 and can't seem to install my Logi Pro 8, I can install the libraries but not the program, is it possible to install or do I have to up-grade to Logic 9? Thanks

It's either that Logic 8 is looking for the Rosetta emulation program or that Logic 8 was previously installed on this OS, in which case you will have to remove some preference files and install receipt.
I think the Rosetta emulation is downloadable for SL.

KVM switch one Cinema hd display (dvi) with macpro (dvi) and macbook pro (mini displayport)

I want to use a KVM switch to share one display with two computers.
Computer one is: MacPro 1,1 dual core 2.66 Ghz with two DVI ports.
Computer two is: MacBook Pro 4 core 2.66 GHz with one Mini Displayport.
Display is: Cinema HD Display with DVI connector.
To do that KVM switches only use (at least that is waht I found) one system either DVI or Mini Displayports
http://www.gefen.com/kvm/dproduct.jsp?prod_id=3113
DVI --> KVM SWITCH<-- DVI
                     V
               DVI (monitor)
http://www.atlona.com/Atlona-2x1-Mini-DisplayPort-KVM-Switch.html
Mini Displayport (Macpro) --> KVM SWITCH <-- Mini Displayport (Macbookpro)
                                                         V
                                                 DVI (monitor)
However what I want is:
DVI (Macpro) --> KVM SWITHCH<-- Mini Displayport (Macbookpro)
                                       V
                              DVI(monitor)
I couldn't find an existing KVM switcher that does this.
Then there is the following solution
DVI (Macpro) --> KVM SWITCH <-- ADAPTER (Mini Displayport to DVI) <-- Mini Displayport (Macbookpro)
                                    V
                            DVI(monitor)
The question is: Will this work?
I've been told that adapter behind adapter never works. Hope someone can help with this before spending money on nothing.
Thanx David

Maybe you're right just try and see if I can return the stuff if it's not working.
I won't be using a higher resolution then 1920 x 1200 however I still would buy the adapter
Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDA3Ng
for connecting macbookpro to KVM DVI switch.
However if there's still someone with experiencing the exact same thing I would be much obliged.

How do I replace an ATI Radeon video card on my MacPro?

The ATI Radeon x1900 video card on my MacPro is failing. I need to replace it with a new/used model. Has anyone ever done this and if so, can you recommend a reliable source for a replacement card, AND, do you know where I can find instructions on how to replace the card? Thank you.

Happy to hear that. Good luck!

2009 & 2010 MacPro upgrading for today´s Video-editing (Premiere Pro CS6 & After Effects)

I have now two MacPro´s: MacPro4,1 (Early 2009/Nehalem) and MacPro5,1 (Early 2010/Nehalem) and I was wondering how to get the best of them for video-editing with Premiere Pro and After Effects (CS6 or later CC) for todays standards.
The specs of the machines:
MacPro5,1
Early 2010 Nehalem
(http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/mac_pro/specs/mac-pro-quad-core-2.8-mid-2010-nehalem -specs.html)
2.8GHz Quad-core Xeon W3530 (256k level 2 cache, 8 MB of "fully shared" level 3 cache)
32GB RAM "1066 MHz DDR3 ECC SDRAM" (PC3-8500) modules (4 x 8GB)
ATI Radeon HD 5770 with 1 GB of GDDR5 memory is installed in a double-wide, 16-lane PCI Express 2.0 graphics slot.
single 1 TB (7200 RPM, 32 MB cache) Serial ATA 3Gb/s hard drive.
+ I have added a 480GB SSD-drive via PCIe (http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/SSD/PCIe/OWC/Mercury_Accelsior/RAID )
The 480GB PCIe SSD-drive is now the boot-drive and gets writes over 500MB/s and reads over 600MB/s testing with "BlackMagic Speed Test"-application. The 480GB SSD-drive that is connected via PCIe-card has also two eSATA ports on it. How could I take advantage of them? Is this just a bottleneck, what would you think. Would I get the same results if I had just Samsung 840 SSD installed with adapter-device to the internal drive bay 2.5" SATAII connections?
What about the graphic card?
What would you suggest to do for the setup to maximize it´s potential (For now it´s working fine)? Would it be good idea ome 7200rpm hard-drives for media and cache storage or do I need that or can I see significant improvements over it since there is still 3 3,5" internal hard drive bays with SATA II connections (and the two eSATA ports).
MacPro4,1
(Early 2009/ Nehalem)
(http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/mac_pro/specs/mac-pro-eight-core-2.66-early-2009-neh alem-specs.html)
- 8-cores: powered by two2.66 GHz Quad Core 45-nm Xeon X5550 (Nehalem) processors with a dedicated 256k of level 2 cache for each core and 8 MB of "fully shared" level 3 cacheper processor.
- 34GB 1066 MHz DDR3 ECC SDRAM
-NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 with 512 MB of GDDR3
A lot like the MacPro5,1 but does have a bit different graphic cards and more memory and cores.
Any ideas?

First and foremost: keep an eye on that 480G PCI-E SSD that you dumped a lot of money into. Those OWC drives aren't known for their robustness or reliability (OWC folks will argue with that statement. Ignore them). Since OS and apps are easy to re-install, it may not be a big deal. But don't put any of your projects on it, even though it's a fairly quick device.
Second, start adding SATA drives to the other 3 bays. Fill them up with the biggest drives you feel comfortable buying. Make one of them a 10k RPM drive for your scratch space. The others can be 7200RPM drives; since you're limited to SATA2, there's not much use in trying to crank serious disk bandwidth through the system.
Video cards. Get rid of those OEM garbage cards. Drop them into a chipper/shredder, in fact. Contact this guy about getting flashed nVidia cards that will work in both Macs, and will help with Pr and Ae. Dave can sell you a flashed GTX780 that will boot (with grey Apple screen) and run in the Mac just fine. And it'll outperform anything Apple has ever sold for those Mac Pros.

Six Spare Monitors...MacPro Video Card Advice?

Greetings,
I have six spare monitors (Dell 19" 4ea and Dell 24" 2ea) leftover from a PC and I would like to get some advice on MacPro video cards to conncect all six monitors to a single machine. When I had my PC, I purchased a single eVGA 9500 (two DVI video ports built-in) and two eVGA PCI cards (2 video ports each for four ports). Once installed, these cards worked flawlessly with the six monitors under Windows Vista and the Aero interface. The 9500 was $99.00 and the PCI video cards were around $50 each.
I currently have a late 2009 iMac i7 with an external display, but I find having two screens is somewhat limiting since I had six with my PC. I've enabled Spaces in Snow Leopard, but all the screen flipping gets on my nerves. I miss being able to dedicate a monitor to email, another to iTunes, another to the Calendar, another for web browsing, etc.
Unlike Wintel PCs, the selection of video cards seems to be limited and specialized for MacPros.
How would someone go about adding video cards to a MacPro to drive six monitors?
I've read that the older MacPro video cards aren't very good. My late 2009 iMac i7 has a Radeon 4850, and I've never had a single problem with it, so I would probably want something similar in my MacPro if that is possible.
I'm considering buying a used MacPro off eBay in the $1,000 to $1,500 price range. I'm planning on using the machine the same way I'm using my iMac today which consists of basic photo editing with iPhoto & Aperture and light video editing with iMovie.
Thank you,
Derrick

there is a similar discussion over here;
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3319068?start=0&tstart=0
where these two pages are mentioned;
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4279
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3477
but you can add another (or more) card in a mac pro for more monitors.
yes, the choice in cards is limited.
some PC cards can be flashed, but with no garantees.
then there is USB, where you can add up to 4 monitors;
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/VIDU2DVIA/
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/VIDU2DVIA/
im using the owc one at the moment, it works fine.
there is also this discussion;
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3317583?tstart=30
imagine, you hook up 6 monitors, activate 12 'spaces', that makes for 72 workspaces. Now youre cooking!

New MACpro Configuration - Video Cards

hello,
i am trying to configure my macPro online, my question is about the VideoCards, is it better to have 4x the Nvidia Card on the ATI with 512 MB??
I am mainly using Apeture, After effects,Motion and PS.
What should i do?
Thank you

the only main reason to have more than 1 video card is if you need to hook up more than 2 monitors.
there is a minority of users that know how to and can utilize two of the 7300 in SLI while running Windows in Bootcamp, but the performance of the SLI'd 7300 is much much less than the single ATI X1900.
the X1900 is much more powerful than the 7300, so if you are going to do a lot of work in Apeture and Motion, and you aren't going to use 3 or more monitors, then the right choice for you is the ATI X1900 hands down.
If you were only the occassional Aperture / Motion user, then you would not see a day to day difference between the 7300 and the X1900, as the faster card really only shows its muscle with certain tasks, it does not help while performing more mundane duties.

If you are a developer, or have a similar personality, there is an aftermarket EFI-64 "work-alike" program you can load into memory instead of 64-bit firmware. It is too complicated for regular folks.
You must already have upgraded your Memory and your graphics card to use this solution, and your Mac will not operate quite normally. Any problems with it are unsupported.

How to upgade from gt 120 to newer video card.

Hi,
I have a Macpro 4,1 with sx 2.26 quad core proccessors, 10 gb of memory and a Gt 120 that seems to be dieing. I understand that with the 10.8.3 updates and beyond apple has added support for many new graphics cards. I was wondering if there were any besides the ones sold by apple that would work in my mac as a plug and play upgrade. I want to get something to play some newer games as well as do video editting but not something that will break the bank. I was speciffically looking into the xfx Radeon HD 7850. I am should also note that i need something that can also drive a 50 inch 1080p display as that is what I am using as a monitor. I was hoping to get help from people here as I am fairly new to macs in terms of upgrading hardware.
Thank You,
Steve

1080p display is a cinch. Anything can do that.
For older Macs, the Apple-firmware 5770 , about US$250, is the recommended card, but yours can drive a faster card.
Anything that is not a "Mac Edition" or specifically says EFI-firmware comes with a caveat:
does not show Startup screens, Installer screens, Debug screens, or Alt-Boot screens -- at all, ever.
In addition, some cards available today require an 8-pin aux cable or an 8-pin Plus a 6-pin (your Mac has two 6-pin Aux connectors only)

My macpro runs slow with or without internet on..... How can I find out if something is running in the background?

Please boot in safe mode and test. Still slow? If you connect to a wireless network, you may have to connect with Ethernet in safe mode.
After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode.)

If I upgade to my macpro 3,1 with a video card Nvidia Quadro FX 4801 can I still use my Cinema HD Display? Will I need an adaptor?
