Looking for graphic cards compatible with the basic G5

Help!!
Went to the Apple Store to see if my G5 (M9020LL/A) which is the 1.6GHz PowerPC to see if it was compatible/could drive the 30" cinema display. They assured me my G5 could handle the large display. I have OS 10.5.8, iLife 09, 1 TB HD, 4GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 Ultra with 64MB DDR SDRAM for the 8x AGP Pro slot.
The display arrived, I get picture but not resolution. Searched for a video/graphics card that was compatible. The ATI Radeon 9600 Pro PC/Mac with 256MB was recommended. I purchased one but can only get it to work with a safe boot. Get resolution but iPhoto cannot do the photos in full screen mode. But I can get full screen photos in screen saver mode?!
Apple support states they only recommend/support two cards for my model, the Radeon 9600 @ 64 MB, 2480X1326 res or the Radeon Pro, 128 MB, 2480X1326 res.
Has anyone had a similar problem with the Radeon card 9600 Pro PC/Mac with 256MB? Does anyone have a solution as to which card would be compatible with my G5 and get 2560X1600 res?
Any suggestions? Thanks you for your help!

Hi-
Welcome to Discussions!
Apple support states they only recommend/support two cards for my model,
Those were the only two cards offered at the time, so that is their "official position". You may safely ignore them..... even though they lied to you regarding the 30" ACD and your machine.
Has anyone had a similar problem with the Radeon card 9600 Pro PC/Mac with 256MB?
Often reported here on the forum.
Not a good card. If it works, fine, but many report as you do....Safe mode only.
The G5 can use any 8x AGP graphics card that was available in any AGP model G5.
OEM Mac cards with dual link DVI for the 30" ACD are:
Radeon 9650
Radeon X800XT
Geforce 6800 GT DDL
Geforce 6800 Ultra DDL
A flashed (converted WinPC card) Geforce 7800 GS may also be used.
Any of the above cards can be found on eBay/Apple Components.

  • What is the best graphics card compatible with the original Mac Pro?

    I have an original Mac Pro with dual 2.0GHz DC Xeons.  It currently has a GeForce 7300.  I would like to know the best Apple graphics card it can support, and the best "flashed" PC graphics card it can support.  I would like to be able to play games, but it doesn't have to be on BEST settings.  What are the best GPUs that are compatible with Mac Pro 1,1?
    Thanks!!

    You may have to work at getting the ATI HD5870 to work with a Rev 1.1 MacPro, but the 5770 should be fine.  It's not as good a card as the 5870, but much faster than your original, and also a lot cheaper than the 5870!  That said, neither is particularly cheap.
    If you're techno savvy, you can have a much bigger choice, and can use a generic PC card and 'flash' it to work with the Mac.  If you use Snow Leopard or Lion, you may get it to work straight off, as they have drivers that work on many of the PC cards.

  • None of the fact sources for [column] are compatible with the detail filter

    Hi Experts,
    I am using obiee 11.1.1.7.
    Getting below error when i add a filter of non conformed dimension column.
    Below is the error
    Error Details
    Error Codes: OPR4ONWY:U9IM8TAC:OI2DL65P 
    State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 43113] Message returned from OBIS. [nQSError: 43119] Query Failed: [nQSError: 14023] None of the fact sources for [column] are compatible with the detail filter
    Please help in solving an issue.

    Hi NN
    You need to follow steps in below link to model your BMM layer for the report to work with non confirmed dimensions.
    http://obibb.wordpress.com/2010/05/31/multiple-fact-reporting-on-non-conforming-dimensions/
    Once you have followed these steps you can use the non confirmed dimension in the reports.When you see the logs to see the query generated by obiee,it generated 2 queries 1 with confirmed dimension and other with non conformed dimension.When you filter using non confirmed dimension you will now not notice any error but the results will not be filtering out because the filter will be applied only in 1 query which is valid
    Now for this to work what you can do is ,instead of using the filter drag the column you like to filter as a prompt in your view.default it to the value you need using the case statement and hide it.This is one of the work around.
    There may be many other work arounds for this but you need to understand that for you requirment to work you need to tweek OBIEE to generate 1 query instead of 2  queries.

    Well, although LR5 is a great improvement of speed, the dev. team should try to work on MF files such as from the Pentax 645D… any speed improvement would be much appreciated, especially with dust removal and masking tools.

  • Graphics Cards compatible with 30" Cinema Display

    I need to replace my graphics card in my MacPro. Display still works from other computers but it won't work from the MacPro any more.
    There seem to be so many graphics cards around yet I am struggling to find a list of cards that ARE compatible with a MacPro/Cinema set up. Does anyone knoe where I can find this information?
    Thanks

    If you want it to work with OSX, it has to be a card make for the Mac Pro. PC graphics cards won't work with OSX.
    <http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shopmac/macaccessories/displays?mco=MTM3NTA0ODQ>
    Despite what Apple says, the ATI Radeon HD 4870 will work with any Mac Pro, the other cards only with the 2008 or 2009 Mac Pro.

  • Is my graphics card compatible with Compressor 4?

    Let me preface just by saying I am not familiar with graphics cards.  I am looking to purchase Compressor 4 which states you need an OpenCL-capable graphics card or Intel HD Graphics 3000 or later.  My graphics card on my MacBook Pro is Intel Iris 1536 MB.  Can someone tell me if this is compatible?  Thanks.

  • Are there event handlers for graphic objects drawn with the CWIMAQViewer toolbar?

    Hi,
    I use the CWIMAQViewer in my VB.Net  application to display images from a CCD camera.  I want to use the toolbar that comes with the viewer to draw graphics (e.g. a circler) over the image.  Is it possible to get the position and radius  of the circle as I drag it and change its size?  If not, what library should I use (I do have the NI Vision module) to achieve my goal?  Thank you so much for your help.

    Try creating the circle as a ROI.  Then take a look at ROI properties.  As an example, ROITop Property: CWIMAQ.ROITop

  • Is this graphics card compatible with my pc?

    i want to upgrade my graphics card for gaming purposes and the one i have in now is poor quality. its an hp h8-1230 tower and i want to get a EVGA GeForce GTX 750 Ti Superclocked Graphics card - 2 GB - GDDR5 SDRAM. MY motherboard is a  M3970AM-HP (Angelica2). will it work? my power supply is stong enough, i just dont want to buy it and have to return it.

    Richard, welcome to the forum.
    No, the EVGA 750Ti requires UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS.  HP didn't begin using UEFI until mid-October, 2012.  Your computer was released in May, 2012.
    Also, there have been reports that the 300W requirement for the power supply unit (PSU) may not always be correct.  Some members have reported the need for 400W.
    MSI does make a 750Ti with a switch that allows it to run with either UEFI of standard BIOS (Legacy).  Before buying it, however, I would contact their Tech Support to assure that it will work with your computer.

  • Looking for graphics card for T2000

    is X3768A a PCI-X graphics card I can use in T2000?
    if not can you recommend any cheap ones ?
    thanks

    Why do you insist on needing a GUI ?
    Your T2000 is a server.    Servers "serve".   They do not need a GUI.
    That is why there isn't a graphics processor integrated into its design.
    This question has been asked over and over again, phrased many different ways but asked the same way, in these forums for as long as they've ever existed from Sun Microsystems and now into Oracle's hosting of them.
    The question seems to be:  "If I can't use the mouse, I don't know what to do".
    Let me ask you a question back at you:   What will you do when there is a catastrophic failure on some filesystem or within some application and the system reverts back to its default CLI console ? You will need to interact with it using the default Bourne shell to repair it.    That's what system administrators need to occasionally do, and you'd better get accustomed to that scenario.
    Here's a link to the T2000 system documentation
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19076-01/sparc.t2k/index.html
    Read its brief Getting Started Guide and its Server Administration Guide.

  • Are 8gb microSDHC cards compatible with the E90?

    I recently puchased a E90 and I would like to know if it is possible to use a 8gb MicroSDHC card.
    Thanks

    SD and SDHC are two totally different technologies packaged inside the same kind of format. SDHC card readers are backwards compatible with SD cards, but SDHC cards cannot be read in a regular SD card reader.
    One of the limitations of SD which led to the development of SDHC in the first place is the maximum capacity of 2GB. Therefore, if the specs of a phone say that it can read 4GB cards then it's fitted with an SDHC card reader and 4GB+ cards will be usable.
    If the specs of a phone say that it can only accept cards of up to 2GB then it is fitted with a regular SD card reader and SDHC cards will not work. No amount of software upgrading will help because the hardware simply isn't there to handle SDHC cards.
    Those SDHC-compatible phones that "max out" at 4GB might benefit from a firmware upgrade because this limitation is indeed software-related.
    The reason why those 8GB SanDisk cards (I have one in my N95) come with a card reader is because that card reader is in fact an SDHC card reader. Most USB card readers available off the shelf for a few quid are not SDHC-compatible, so you won't be able to put your 8GB microSDHC card in an SD adapter, stuff that in one of those SD card readers and access it that way.

  • Were there graphics card problems with the 2006 Mac Pros?

    I'm curious about the ATI 2600 graphics card issues occuring with the new Mac Pro's using Leopard...
    Did this just start occuring or were people also having problems with the NVIDIA GeForce 7300GT cards on the 2006 Mac Pro's while running Tiger?
    The reason I'm asking is my Dual 867 has finally given up the ghost and needs to be replaced and I have the opportunity to buy a new 2 Dual-Core 2.66GHZ Mac Pro with Tiger loaded in lieu of the newer, problem ridden models.
    Thanks for your responses.

    the 7300 has had no widespread problems.

  • Best graphics card compatible with Mac Pro?

    I still have the stock ATI Radeon HD 5700 Series from 2010 that shipped with it. Everything else is holding up but I'm noticing the graphics card is starting to get a bit dated. I've never upgraded a graphics card on a mac so I'm wandering what kind of cards I can and cant buy.

    Windows and  games then you can use whatever you can power.
    That could be GTX 570 or ATI 7xxx
    Only issue is you only have 2 x 6-pin auxillary cables.
    you might buy a flashed GTX from MacVidCards

  • Help!  looking for internet camera compatible with Mac

    I need help! I purchased a Mac recently and so far I am very happy with it. However, we just had a baby and I'd like to see and hear my baby from my computer at work. At work we use PCs and at home we havea iBook G4. I bought a D-link wireless G internet camera, the DCS-950G, but I could not install it because it requires you to have a PC for initial installation. I've looked around the web but I've been unable to find an internet camera that works with the Mac. I am desperate and frustrated! Does aynone know of an wireless internet camera that works with the Mac? I'd greatly appreciate any help you can provide. Thanks.

    Hello B Real Brad
    You do not say which DV camcorder you have. The exact answers to your questions depend upon your camcorder's features and user guide instructions. If you experience problems when you try your camcorder, check your camcorder's users guide instructions. That having been said, here are the answers to your posted questions:> Do I need to have a firewire cable to successfully use it through iChat ...
    Firewire will be easiest. If you have a Firewire cable to download your DV Video to iMovie, that one will work fine.
    ... or can I use the normal usb cable?
    Depending upon your camcorder, that may work with additional software and or hardware, but, if your camcorder offers it, Firewire will me much easier.
    .. is the quality ... better using a DV camcorder ... ?
    Usually. This depends on which camcorder you compare with which webcam.
    Some people like the image quality of their camcorders better. See John Kennedy's "Cameras and Image Quality", the Sat - October 30, 2004, blog for a comparison. (John's is a very high quality camcorder.)
    See this link for my reasons for using a webcam when I do not need portability or highest possible quality. Some of the reasons may be of interest to you.For specifics on how to get going, see my recent response to Tony Keogh. Although Tony asks specifically about a particular Sony model, the specific suggestions I made there should apply to your camcorder, too.
    If the above do not get you going, I suggest that you start your own topic and give as many specifics as possible about your system, your problem, and what you have already tried. Your questions deserve the individual attention they will get in a separate topic.
    Here are a couple of other suggestions for your consideration:
    (1) I see from your other posts that you use Miglia TVMini. Be aware that some AV devices and third-party items can cause possible hardware or software conflicts with iChat.
    (2) Also, your system info shows that you are using 10.4.4. I suggest that you update to the latest available version of Tiger using the following method:- Repair permissions.
    - Then download and apply the Mac OS X 10.4.9 Combo Update (PPC).
    - Finish with another Permissions Repair.The latest Combo Update offers several additions and improvements over the older versions.
    Cheers,

  • I'm looking for a music player with the following features:

    Hi everyone,
    I'm setting up a linux desktop for the first time. I'd like some directions on finding a music player. Here are my criteria, in order of importance:
      - Can play (at least) ogg, mp3 and wav
      - Prefers a 'playlist approach' (m3u) to a 'media library' approach
      - Can play songs without breaks in-between
      - Fast startup
      - Simple interface (ex. VLC beats mplayer)
    My window manager is pekwm. This is for usability reasons, not performance reasons - my comp. can handle all the bells and whistles you throw at it (actually, I tried with my doorbell, but I wouldn't recommend with the church bell). (sorry for the bad humour). Crazy visualisations and features whose sole purposes are to eat up CPU cycles are O.K.
    Good support for keyboard would be appreciated - I am a pekwm user.
    So what have you got?

    MPD rocks, runs here for months without major problems.
    The client side is very flexible, you can choose many players:
    http://www.musicpd.org/clients.shtml
    For X, for console, etc..
    Edit:
    MPD supports Icecast also, to create streams.
