MacMini 2012 i5 grafics card upgrade

Hi.
I have a 2012 i5 MacMini with 4gb of ram. The integrated grafics card has 512mb.
If I upgrade to 16gb of ram, will the MacMini have more grafics card memory ?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
The Late 2012 Mac mini has got an Intel HD Graphics 4000, which can get its VRAM increased as it's an integrated GPU. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3246#intel4000
With 16 GB of RAM, you will get 768 MB of VRAM for the GPU

Please help! if u need more info tell me! Thanks for your time!

The first thing you are going to need is the Service Manual: Manual And let's tick off the things you cannot do at all: 1. Faster or more memory. No. You can only run at 1600 mhz and up to 8 gigs of DDR3-1600 SO-DIMM2. Better video. No. You have the top end motherboard for the G7-2200 series with the AMD 7670M switchable discrete video. Nothing else better is made that will fit in your laptop case. 3. Faster processor. No. i7-3632QM is also as good as it gets. 4. Backlit keyboard. None made for your laptop. You can install an Intel Centrino® Wireless-N 2230 802.11 b/g/n 2×2 WiFi and Bluetooth 4.0 combination adapter HP Part No. 670290-001 in place of the Realtek and it would be an improvement. $3 on eBay The video you linked shows upgrading an AMD A8 processor to an A10. The AMDs actually have the video hardware built right into the processor so upgrading the processor also upgrades the video. Yours does not work like that. The video hardware is on the motherboard not in the processor (a bit simpilified but generally true). If this is "the Answer" please click "Accept as Solution" to help others find it.

How to connect to Service provider in Ukrain

Hi
Its always possible that some parts are not available at this moment. Its nothing unusual.
In my opinion if the service provider has not parts on stock in the Ukraine the parts must be ordered form the Toshiba head quarter or somewhere else.
I can remember someone in this forum has suggested that a graphic card was out of order and the notebook was upgraded with another better graphic card.
you can contact the ASP in your country. The contact data you will find on the Toshiba page:

Graphics Card Upgrade with 2008 MacPro?

Hello: I have a sturdy, workhorse 2008 MacPro (6 gigs RAM). I need to confirm if I can/need to upgrade the graphics card that came with the original box. (Chipset Model: ATI Radeon HD 2600). Am buying a NEC PA271W-BK 27 monitor and X-rite ColorMunki, whose specs say I need "1024 x 768 or higher display resolution with 16-bit video card." (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/798928-REG/X_Rite_CMUNDIS_ColorMunki_Displ ay.html)
Thoughts? (Would prefer not to buy new MacPro yet, as this machine likely has at least another year). Thanks.

RE: Mac Pro silver tower (2006-2012) Replacement Graphics cards
1) Apple brand cards,
2) "sold in the Apple store" cards, and
3) "Mac Edition" cards ...
... show all the screens, including Boot up screens, Safe Mode, Installer, Recovery, debug screens, and Alt/Option boot screens. At this writing, these choices include:
1) Apple brand cards:
• Apple-firmware 5770, about US$250** works near full speed in every model Mac Pro, Drivers in 10.6.5 [BUT! This card has just been discontinued and is no longer available in the Apple Store, or at many Apple Resellers]
• Apple-firmware 5870, about US$450
2) "sold in the Apple store" cards
• NVIDIA Quadro 4000, about US$1200
• NVIDIA Quadro 5000, about US$2500
3) "Mac Edition" cards -- REQUIRE 10.8.3 or later:
• SAPPHIRE HD 7950 3GB GDDR5 MAC Edition, about US$480** Vendor recommends Mac Pro 4,1
• EVGA GTX 680 Mac Edition, about US$600
The cards above require no more than the provided two 6-pin aux power connectors provided in the Mac Pro through 2012 model. Aux cables may not be provided for third-party cards, but are readily available.
If you are Meet ALL of these:
• running 10.8.3 or later AND
• don't care about "no boot screens" etc AND
• can re-wire or otherwise "work out" the power cabling, THEN:
You can use many more cards, even most "PC-only cards"

DVI & ADC video card upgrade???

What can I get to replace the stock 64mb AGP card (at least I think it is) in my MDD Dual 1.42 machine. I currently run two Acrylic Cinema Displays, a 20" via DVI and a 17" via ADC...
Is ADC going to limit my options? If so, I can use a second ADC-DVI for the 17" monitor.
Any help would be great.
Thanx

Okay, so it sounds like I should "dump" the ADC idea.
Then an I looking for a card with 2-DVI or 1-DVI and 1-VGA ???
I've followed several of your discussions, but still need a little help with the Video Card upgrade education. Flashed cards kind of scare me, but are they okay to use? I don't know if I could tell the difference anyway. Asking a seller on eBay if it is in most cases won't get you anywhere either.
You've talked about the 7800gs card. Any others I could consider? I've read that some cards don't work in a FW800 MDD machine.

Macmini 2012, Mountain Lion, Logitech C600 webcam USB Mic...

OK.
So I got the new macmini 2012(base model). Got 10.8.2 on it and a webcam Logitech C600.
Everything works fine (no additional drivers needed). The problem comes when sometimes (randomly) the mic stops working. It is a USB mic integrated in the webcam. I am thinking it has something to do when the monitor goes to sleep, but still cannot find the reason. It sometimes happen after fresh restart. When I disconnect and reconnect the webcam it goes ok. Any ideas?

BDAqua is right Hristokirev. I solved this problem myself with this issue before. Coz I also have a C600. Also if your C600 video display resolution is crap, go to quicktime player then go to movie recording and click on high recording quality on it so you can manually adjust the resolution. So yeah when I first plug this camera it didn't had a 720p quality feature, but its just that you have to manually change the settings in it itself.

Mac pro 8 core 3.1 randomly freezes after video card upgrade

Hi,
I just installed an ATI 5770 as a video card upgrade, plugged my new LED cinema display 27 and everything seems to work fine.
Sometimes though, while working with Aperture I noticed the Mac Pro just freezes, although the mouse works, I cannot do anything and I'm forced to press and hold the power button for a reboot.
This happended randomly 5 or 6 times in a couple of weeks and only while working with Aperture.
Any thoughts? Anyone having the same issue?
Thanks for your reply.
Guido

Running Lion or SL?
Tried holding Shift key down and do a safe boot after those freezes.
Use Disk Utility from another boot media to repair your drive.
Do you have enough RAM? is Aperture library on non-boot drive? Does it have 30% or more free? more is better. Same for the boot drive which sholdk be small and 50% free.
Corrupt library. Corrupt preferences (if there were none before, there likely are now after those hard restarts, to data files and to the disk directories).

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.

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?

DPM 2012 R2 Crashes after upgrade - Tape Backup

Hello guys,
I have recently upgraded from DPM 2012 SP1 to DPM 2012 R2 Rollup 3 on Windows 2012 R2 (in-place upgrade)
The basic procedure was to backup the DB, uninstall DPM, install DPM 2012 R2, restore the DB. re-sync all the inconsistent replicas and upgrade server agents. When it comes to the offsite tape backup for whatever reason every time the tape backup
commences it fails instantly with the below error and reports "Backup to Tape Failed"
"Event Log shows MSDPM Error ID 945"
It appears to be failing due to a missing stored procedure 'dbo.prc_SMTE_ComputeDailyTrend'. The stored procedure does not exist on other DPM servers. I'm guessing this is something hanging around in the DB from prior to the upgrade but I can't
seem to track it down. Does anyone have any ideas upon how to resolve the issue?
The description for Event ID 945 from source MSDPM cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.
If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.
The following information was included with the event:
Unable to connect to the DPM database because of a general database failure. Make sure that SQL Server is running and that it is configured correctly.

Error with grafic card in HP Envy 15-j101ES while playing Starcraft 2

While playing Starcraft 2 the display begins to fill with green spotys. After consulting with Blizzard technical support their answer is that there is a conflict between the preinstalled Intel grafic card and the dedicated NVIDIA GFORCE 750M included in the laptop.
I tried to deactivate the intel grafic card but dxdiag seems to be unaware of the changes i make on configuration to try to ignore the preinstalled card. I have also launched starcraft 2 forcing it to use the NVIDIA card but the error remains.
Does anyone know what can i do to fix the problem?
Thanks in advance

Slimline s5-1010 - HDMI graphics card upgrade, what graphics cards will work in slimline box?

Slimline s5-1010 - HDMI graphics card upgrade, what graphics cards will work in slimline box? Cheap will do, under 100. Has 1 PCI Express x16, but the slot on back of pc looks about 2" too short for this?

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.
