Mercury CUDA not enabling when using NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285 on Apple Mac Pro after Mavericks install

Been using the same setup since CS5 with the Mercury CUDA running perfectly. After recent upgrade of OS X to 10.9 Mercury CUDA is no longer available and only lets me run with the OpenGL or software options. Im using a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285 for apple computers. Here are the results for the GPUSniffer program in the latest Premiere Pro 7.1.0 files. The LAST line make me chucle because it the first on the list of supported card in the "cuda_supported_cards.txt" file. Anybody else seen this?

Hi Wendell,
Sorry for the inconvenience. NVIDIA is currently working on drivers that support CUDA on Mavericks 10.9 with some of the older NVIDIA cards such as the GTX 285 and the Quadro 4800.
For others interested, the Quadro 4000, K5000 and GTX 680 ect... work with CUDA in 10.9.
Best,
Peter Garaway
Adobe
Premiere Pro
I have latest CUDA drivers, so i guess i am just waiting till a proper update that have the fixes to support my card.

  • NVidia GeForce 8800 GT *and* GeForce GTX 285 in a Mac Pro?

    Hi,
    my Mac Pro came with an nVidia GeForce 8800 GT, and I've now bought an extra GeForce GTX 285 Mac Edition (for the Compute Level 1.3 double precision floating point capability in CUDA).
    (Everything bought from the Mac Store)
    I wasn't aware that I was expected to throw away the GeForce 8800 GT , what with the other three PCI-e slots being free.
    The GTX 285 (max requirement: 204 W) requires two extra PCI-e power connectors. The 8800 GT (max: 110 W) uses one. There are only two available from the motherboard though.
    So, *although I realize this isn't supported*, has anyone else managed to scrounge some current from somewhere else on the motherboard?
    I'm only using one hard drive and one optical drive and no other PCI-e cards. Surely the power supply (around 1000 W ?) can supply the extra?
    Does anyone know how much current the PCI-e extra power connectors are rated for?
    Thanks,
    colin

    Search long enough and you may find...
    According to this
    http://www.playtool.com/pages/psuconnectors/connectors.html#pciexpress
    The PCI-e slot can supply up to 75 W, whilst a 6 pin cable can provide another 75 W.
    So:
    2 PCI-e slots + 2 auxiliary 6-pin connector = 300 W
    "Even with only two 12 volt lines the standard implementation of PCI Express power cables use large enough gauge wire and a good enough connector to provide much more than the three amps per wire required to provide 75 watts. Nonetheless, the 6 pin PCI Express power cable officially provides only 75 watts. *In all likelihood, however, real implementations of this power cable can provide far more than 75 watts.* "
    Hmmm

  • Can I use nvidia geforce gtx 650 2gb video card for after effects?

    Hi I saw the list of graphics cards that are compatible with  after effects... and am wondering if the nvidia geforce 650 2 gb would work?
    I realized all the graphics cards have cuda cores, the gtx 650 2 gb isnt on the list but it has 384 cuda cores?
    Is it compatible?
    GTX 650 2g:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814133474

    If it's not on the system requirements list, then After Effects won't use it for GPU acceleration of the ray-traced 3D renderer. Read this page for details about what this means:

  • NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285 and 10.6.4

    Hello, so I have a Mac Pro 3.2GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon and installed the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285. when I updated to 10.6.4 last night I started getting a lot of flickers and really weird graphical things on the screen and the computer would freeze. In my CUDA pane under system preferences it says that the update server is unavailable and that an update is required...
    CUDA Driver Version: 3.0.14
    GPU Driver Version: 1.6.16.11 (19.5.8f01)
    I thought these were the latest and greatest... no? What should I do?

    I assume you know what Nvidia's GPGPU and CUDA (as well as PhysX) are and about, and how Adobe and Nvidia have shown what can be done off-loading some of the work the processor use to have to do.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CUDA - has been updated recently too. It is NOT just aimed at OpenCL.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenCL
    http://developer.nvidia.com/object/cuda3_0downloads.html
    Maybe there is some porting of CUDA to OpenCL going on though, depending how you read it. From Nvidia:
    OpenCL (Open Computing Language) is a new cross-vendor standard for heterogeneous computing that runs on the CUDA architecture. Using OpenCL, developers will be able to harness the massive parallel computing power of NVIDIA GPU’s to create compelling computing applications.
    As the OpenCL standard matures and is supported on processors from other vendors, NVIDIA will continue to provide the drivers, tools and training resources developers need to create GPU accelerated applications.
    http://www.nvidia.com/object/cudaopenclnew.html
    10.6.3 brought new APIs. OpenCL 1.1 was just now finalized.
    And of course, a lot of people are able to turn to Flash 10.1 and use GPU if they GPU is from Nvidia.
    One Mac Pro owner has both ATI 4870 for display purposes, the GTX 285, getting power from 450W PSU placed in lower optical drive bay, for handling rendering and GPGPU tasks.

  • Nvidia GeForce GTX 285 and Snow Leopard

    Are the latest Nvidia GeForce GTX 285 drives included in Snow Leopard?
    I ordered my 285 with my copy of Snow Leopard, and I plan to do a clean install of SL then install the 285. I wanted to make sure that I wasn't going to need to install the drivers that come with the card since I read those were not up to par.
    Thanks,
    --Jaime

    I have the GTX 285 also in 10.6 and its great... Though I think that the drivers are gonna get better over time. On my MacBook Pro (June '07) it took them till Feb. '08 to make the drivers never crash and run decent. Then after that, i wasn't till 10.5.6 that it really started getting close to the FPS of when you run the same program or game in Windows XP or Vista (since their drivers get alot more love).
    For intance I get better framerates in Second Life in Windows 7 on my Mac Pro than I do in Snow Leopard, and I can promise you it's the GPU drivers. Sometimes I wish Apple would hire an extra GPU coder or two.

  • Compatibility of Nvidia GeForce GTX 780 Ti for Premiere Pro

    Hi,
    I am upgrading my workstation and plan to buy a good quality graphic card which will support smooth editing of 1080p footage and some after effects rendering.
    I chose GTX 780 Ti but unfortunately in the compatibility list provided by Adobe, only GTX 780 is supported. So if GTX 780 Ti is used, can I use the Mercury Playback Engine and take full advantage of the graphic card?
    Also is my select correct? I was at first confused selecting between Nvidia  Quadro K4200 and GTX 780 Ti. I will not be using Maya or 3D Max. Only Premiere Pro, After Effects and sometimes Da Vinci Resolve will be used.
    Thanks,
    Srijit

    Yeah, it works great as mentioned in the table with recommended video cards, if you have at least:
    An overclocked I7 6+ core CPU, or Dual E5 6+ core CPU's, and
    64+ GB RAM, and
    800+ MB/s transfer rates on all volumes.
    Otherwise it is overkill and the card will be idle most of the time. See Tweakers Page - Exporting Style

  • Anyone experience flashing a NVIDIA GEFORCE 8800ULTRA (PC-version) for Mac Pro 3.1 ...?

    I have a NVIDIA GeForce 8800ULTRA (that I bought new, a few years ago, for my PC) that I would like to use (if possible) for my Mac Pro 3.1
    I know... There are 8800GT's for the Mac Pro 1.1 & 2.1 ...
    But the 8800ULTRA was the flagship, so I would like to use it for my Mac Pro, if possible.
    Anyone experience in flashing video cards...?

    As the User Tip indicates, there are tradeoffs. It will not work "just like a genuine Mac" card:
    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".

  • HT2844 My front headphone jack does not work when connecting a head phone to a new mac pro desktop computer.  The sound still comes from the speakers.  Any solutions?

    The front headphone jack on my new mac pro desktop computer does not transmit sound when connecting a headphone or ear buds.  The sound still comes from the speakers and is not redirected to the head phone.  The port has never worked.  Any solutions?

    okay, try option-clicking on the speaker icon on the top of your screen. That should bring up a list of sound output options. including headphone. You could try messing around with Audio MIDI. It may be possible that the thing is still stuck inside the headphone jack. Careful use of a toothpick may get it unstuck. I dunno, I've never had a problem with the headphone jack. If all else fails, call Apple or take 'er in for an appointment

  • Installed Nvidia GeForce GTX 285 card and am unable to open PSCS5.

    After install with current drives for card PS will not open. I cannot get to preferences to chg. GTU which is checked to unchecked to see if this is the prob. Have ??? Nvidia - no help there as they refer back to Adobe. Checked Adobe Support but no help there that I could find. The Raedon card that I ordered with the MacPro worked fine but needed additional speed in rendering as I work on very lg files. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Let me know what additional info from me is needed. (All Master Suite apps open except PS and InDesign.) Thank you.

    PS stopped at the very beginning of opening- no pref.,etc were read and the spinning ball continued until I force quit PS. After reading another discussion- "Photoshop Crashes" the response from c.pfaffenbichler held the key to getting PS to open. For now all is as it should be. I reset some of the pref. and have not run into any problems. I have not worked on the InDesign prob. but if cannot get it resolved will go to the correct forum for help. Thank you.

    As long as the backup on your external drive is fine, it will restore your Mac to exactly how it was on the date of that particular backup, all data included. I have used it before and have retained all data from the date of the backup.
