Non-Video Editing Graphics Adapter

Over in http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1318710 I described a problem with wife's ATI HD 5450 card and Win8.1 breaking the 3D function in her Cad program
I am concerned that "what ever" it was about 8.1 that broke her 3D function will creep into "something else" in a Windows update, so am planning to replace her card with something newer... a card that has/will receive driver updates
Since this is not for video editing, I don't especially NEED an nVidia card, although I am certainly going to look and compare features
So... does anyone have any experience with an ATI R7 (or similar price of under $100) card... especially as it relates to Win8.1?

This absolutely SUCKS !!!
Card arrived a couple hours ago... I first made a boot drive backup (as always... and a good thing!) and then uninstalled ATI card/driver
Power down and unplug so not even a vestigate of power to power supply or motherboard
Remove ATI and install PNY... properly snapped into place... and connected 6 pin power connector
nVidia/PNY says MINimum 400watt PS, have 550watt http://www.coolermaster.com/powersupply/extreme/extreme-power-plus-550w/
While doing advance reading, had done "go into bios, disable secure boot, enable legacy devices" to enable booting with the card installed
Plug in power cord and connect monitor... press power button
Computer went into an endless loop of trying to start up and show screen for about a second, then power down... and repeat
I even unplugged the 6 pin power cord and used the supplied adapter to connect to a different line... same boot loop
Before I contact Amazon for a defective card return... any great ideas?
Added Info... 550watt PS is driving 2 hard drives (500G + 1T Western Digital) and 32Gig of Ram and 4 case fans and DVD writer (which is not in use during boot) so not what I would think is too much of a power draw

What is the best Monitor for Video editing & Graphic Design?

Hi every one,
I would like to find out what is the best monitor for video editing and graphic design that you recomend, I am trying to buy one but not sure which one is good and not expansive.
Thanks very much

I don't want 2 monitors, so a single 27inch model just what I need... plenty of room for PPro, or I can have a Word document and a Text file open and side by side
John,
That is personal taste and there is no discussing taste. However, from my perspective, and that is personal, I prefer 3840 x 1080 resolution with dual monitors over 1920 x 1080 with a single monitor, but that is because I very often have Firefox, Filezilla, Dreamweaver and some other applications open at the same time, switching between the Adobe forums, Gmail accounts, Notebook results from the PPBM5 data submissions, PPBM5 form submissions, MySQL access, phpadmin pages to update the database, the PPBM5 results pages and various DW .php pages for the maintenance of our database and switching back and forth between various versions of PR. I occasionally really run out of real estate with all these applications and could not consider a single monitor with only 1920 x 1080 resolution, even if it were a 105" screen. In the future I would even like to have a four monitor setup (with MPE hardware support) in a two by two configuration, so that I can freely move my application screens around.
If that happens, notice I say if and not when, my preference for a monitor would be something like 4 Samsung F2380 monitors. Small bezel, great display and panel, affordable.

Feedback request for First PC Build - For video editing (Premiere, AE)

Hey guys. This is going to be my first PC Build, and I've been researching for weeks to put together parts to build a balanced system that is affordable but will still perform solidly. Since I am so new at this, most of this PC jargon is extremely new to me. I would just build it, but for me this is a lot of money, and I want to double check with some more experienced people that this is a solid build before stepping forward.
I've recently started my own videography business, and I need to build something that will allow me to edit and add effects more efficiently. I don't need the best in the game, but I do need to upgrade from my current system. I edit almost entirely DSLR footage. I mostly use Premiere, but am learning AE, and hope to implement it a lot more in the near future. Anyway, if you have time to look it over, I really appreciate any feedback you are willing to give!!
-Does everything fit?!
-Is this system balanced?
-Are there any bottlenecks?
-Anything overkill?
-How upgradeable is it?
-Is there anything worth upgrading now rather than later?
-Also, are there other sites to find these parts cheaper?

In addition to what cc_merchant has said, my only comments to add would be to consider the new Haswell platform and/or the Nvidia 700 series cards that recently came out.
Depending on how soon you need this machine, it may be worth your while to get a 4770k and Z87 mobo. (You might want to wait for the C2 stepping to hit shelves, as the current C1 offerings have a USB 3.0 bug). I've read that the C2 version should hit shelves early to mid August.
As for the videocard, Nvidia just released the Gtx 760, which would be a much stronger offering for a little bit more money. (Some here might argue that it is overkill for that machine, but I think the future proof aspect makes it worth it).
For the hard drives, below is the hypothetical scenario I plan to go with when I build my system (per Harm's instructions):
C:\ OS, Programs, Windows Pagefile - 128GB Samsung 840 Pro SSD
D:\ Projects and Media - 3TB Seagate 7200.14 HDD
E:\ Media Cache / Scratch - RAID 0, 2x 1TB Seagate 7200.14 HDD
F:\ Misc/Non-Video Editing Hard Drive - 1TB WD Caviar Black
Exports go to whichever drive has space available.
If you're only able to afford one of these upgrades, I would focus on getting the optimum hard drive setup. Right now, that's your bottleneck.
Hope that helps.

Need Help Building a Graphic Design/Video Editing PC

Greetings everybody, my name is David, and I'm hoping to get a little assistance building a computer system either from scratch or from a couple of computers I have picked out.
I hope this that doesn't sound unrealistic but I only have around $600 in my budget to build a Graphic Designer machine. My intentions are to get a subscription to Adobe cloud so I would have access to all of Adobe CS6 products. (I won’t be using any of the Touch or Game developers applications.)
I would like to post two links to two machines that I picked out that are in my price range and would like some advice as to whether or not either one of these machines have enough processing power to be able to handle all Adobe CS 6 products.
I am aware that neither one of these machines have a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) and that I would have to purchase one and add it. Which leads me to my first question; are the processors on either one of these machines capable of handling a GPU that is on the Adobe recommended list for processors?
And secondly, if I were to build a machine from scratch, is $600 enough to build a machine that is capable of handling Adobe CS6 products? When building a machine from scratch can you tell me what the minimum requirements are for a motherboard? Or are there any sites that offer specific advise for building PC's for graphic design?
I noticed after looking through the list of recommended graphics processing units that the majority of those are very expensive, in the $500-$3000 range. Can you please recommend a graphics processing unit that is in the $200-$300 range that would be fully adequate to handle Adobe products? Also what things do I need to take into consideration when building the machine from scratch to ensure that all my hardware is capable of handling Adobe CS6 products.
What do I need to add to either one of these prebuilt computers to make them Adobe-ready, If they are in fact worthy at all?
Here are the links for two machines that I have picked out:
http://www.costco.com/HP-Pavilion-p6t-Desktop%2c-Intel%C2%AE-Core%E2%8 4%A2-i3-2130-3.4GHz.product.100010197.html
http://www.costco.com/ZT-Desktop%2c-Intel%C2%AE-Core%E2%84%A2-i5-3470- 3.2GHz.product.100027436.html
I do realize that neither one of these machines have a graphics card in them. Can you tell by looking at the specifications on either one of these machines, whether or not your typical graphics card would fit inside the case If they are indeed worthy in all other respects?
And I realize that I mentioned that I only had $600 to spend, however if either one of these prebuilt machines are powerful enough in all other respects, I don't have an issue waiting a month or two before buying the graphics card and installing a little bit later.
Thank you in advance for your input.
Sincerely,
David

Your HP Costco link results in an out of stock message
Your ZT Costco link is very likely NOT expandable due to the VERY small power supply... so you will likely NOT be able to add a video card later
For PPro video editing you want an nVidia graphics adapter http://www.pacifier.com/~jtsmith/GPU.HTM and even the low power nVidia may be too much for that computer
Also, for video editing, you need a MINIMUM of 2 hard drives... and trying to edit HiDef video with an i5 will be a study of waiting for things to happen
As Harm said... a $600 computer will work for everything EXCEPT video editing
This DIY list is just about twice your budget, but it will work for video editing

I doubt this can be relocated or moved so you might want to just repost in the macbook pro area.

Can you afford a new Thunderbolt case and cable? any case with FW800 is going to be slow 72MB/sec and less, and any new 1TB drive is capable of 75MB/s minimum up to 125MB/sec.
Thunderbolt storage can of course when setup properly reach 100's of MB higher using multiple drives.
Use what you have for a system backup or for secondary backup storage.
you might be able to take the drive - most cases allow you to open and swap drives - and use this:

What is the Best Power MAC G5 for Graphic Design and Video Edit

I need the Best Power MAC G5 Processor CPU
and Ram HDD Graphic card for Graphic Design and Video Edit
and the name of the Processor
how much the price

Hi GabreilKnight;
You are aware that the PowerMac G5 is no longer being produced hence if you find one it will be on the used market?
For what you are looking at doing I would suggest that you consider a Mac Pro instead.

Newer MBA or Older MBP for light - moderate music, video, and graphic editing

Essentially I would be using it for the following:
Word Processing (ms office suite)
Video editing (primarily YT videos) via FCP X
Music editing / production via Garageband, Logic Pro, and Melodyne
Adobe Photoshop CS6 (nothing to heavy like I said willing to live without retina)
Probably light gaming
Coding ( I don't think this should be an issue, but want the ability to write apps for iOS)
Web surfing obviously
Building itunes library
It seems like a bit now that I look at it, but I don't think I would have more than two of these programs running at the same time (my guess is the worst would be fcpx, garageband, and cs6 all open at the same time). I have a 500GB western digital external HD that is practically empty minus a recent backup of all my files on my current computer.
Which do you think would fit my needs more? Portability is a factor for me but I think the mba is like 1/2 a pound lighter or something which I'm not sure makes a huge difference to me since I'm currently lugging around a 15" pc that is around 7-8lbs.
So I've kind of figured that 256 gb ssd is probably going to be the most I can afford with a budget of $1190 and under ( could I get away with 128gb with my 500gb external hd?).
I know I can get the ssd and ram (at least 8GB unless 4GB would suffice) I need with a MBA but I do not know if the processor will be good enough for everything i'm planning to do. I've seen older MBP (circa 2011-2012) that has adequate ram (8-16gb) minus a ssd but regular hd with 500-700gb in some cases 1 TB. I've seen these for less than 1000 on ebay.
So which is a better choice? I don't want a system that is too old. I currently have a working cd/dvdr drive on my pc so I could live without having a cd/dvd drive in my mac or superdrive or whatever.
I'm interested in brand new or refurbished (either by apple or seller). Nothing used. An SD slot would also be nice to have but I'm unsure as to which models have them.

From what I see on Twitter and blogs, a lot of photography pros are picking up the new MacBook Airs as their road machines because with the new Core iX processors they are quite acceptable for performance. I've mostly read about them using Lightroom, though, and not as a primary machine, so you should take some of your raw photos to an Apple store and run some Aperture tests to see how it feels. Do you think there is enough room to see everything, or does it feel cramped?
The main problem with the MacBook Air is not being able to put more than 4GB RAM in it, but with the SSD you might not notice the lag as much. For most people the Air is a fantastic computer. I use the 15" MacBook Pro, because I use other graphics apps where I need room to display documents, filmstrips, palettes, etc. so I need mor pixels, and also because I need to be able to have more RAM.
I would guess that GarageBand wouldn't be a problem on any new Mac, assuming you're not piling on heaps of effects.

New 21.5 iMac for video editing - which graphics

I am thinking of upgrading a 3 year old Intel iMac to one of the new ones. The only beefy think I want to do on it is video editing with iMovie. My main question is whether I would benefit significantly from specifying the ATI graphics rather than Nvidia for this task. I suspect that it will be more than good enough with the cheaper graphics, but any thoughts ?

Simon (UK) wrote:
Choosing a faster discreet GPU with its own memory is always the way to go, especially for video
So is first class air travel and 5* hotels However, there is a law of diminishing returns on the cash outlay. If I admit it my 3 year old Mac is up to the job, but I like shiny new Macs. Just wanted a feel for whether I would actually notice a significant performance improvement between those machines when running iMovie.

Video graphics adapter broke apart from motherboard

i have a compaq sr 5421F , my video graphics adapter broke apart from the motherboard, how do i replace it, buy a new motherboard or can i just plug a graphics adapter somewhere else on the same motherboard?

You would need a PCIEx16 v2 graphic card. That also means a new power (PSU) supply, as your present system has a meager 250W PSU. How are you using this unit? Just the onboard games, internet.

What Mac should i get for serious Audio recording, Video editing and Graphic's?

Hey im new to Macs and i want to upgrade to one. My question is what one?.. My current system is not powerfull enough to handle what i am doing and i want to upgrade. I plan on using the mac for serious music recording with protools or cubase, video editing and effects with adobe premiere pro and after effects and graphics and web type stuff the rest of the adobe collection.. ex photoshop, dreamweavor, flash, illistrator, etc. So pretty much i need it to handle the adobe cs5.5 master collection and a music recording daw without bogging down. I do serious music recording and video editing and effects that need power behind it and runs smoothly. Any tips, tricks, advise, etc would be greatly appreachated!. Btw im a college student and plan on getting the discount prices in the adobe collection and hopefully the mac and would like to get the best quality computer for the best price!
Thanks!

Buying refurbs from Apple is a great idea - except for my current iMac, all my Macs have been refurbished. However, I would only get a factory refurb from Apple - they come with the same warranty as new units and you can buy Applecare to extend that to a total of 3 years. And, as far as I know, the Apple online store is the only place where you can get factory refurbs.

3D Graphics Cards for Video Editing (what's the real deal?)

Hi
I've known for some time that 3D graphic cards offers no REAL significant improvements to VIDEO EDITING and RENDERING.
I also know that for real video editing, one needs the likes of Quadro cards, not 3D Gaming Cards like GEforce/Radeon.. and that the SOFTWARE being used needs to have support for using GPU for rendering such as CUDA technology
I tried to update myself and read around a bit... w/ the advancements of software today, 3D gaming cards now offer more improvements for video editing should software use 3D effects, transitions, or similar.. but still not that much really
Q1: am i on top of things so far?
And recently i found out that Adobe Premier CS4 (and other vid ed software) now takes advantage of GPU power.. (really?)
Q2: HOW MUCH advantage though? like a lot like equally as useful as CPU power?? or a bit of gpu power to help cpu?
Q3: So, would it be practical to spend $$$$ on a highend GeForce Card like GTX295 to improve video editing/rendering performance? or would it be rather more useful to spend that on higher CPU or overall PC specs?
Would really like to hear your thoughts on these.
Thanks

In terms of impact on performance, you can rate the various components from most important to least important:
1. CPU
2. RAM
3. Disk setup
9. Video card.
Even a mildly priced card like an ATI HD 48xx is not taxed to its full capacity on a very fast system, even on a 3.8 GHz overclocked Nehalem the CPU is the bottleneck, not the GPU.

Dock Adapter in iPod Classic Box--What Is It Good For + non-video iPod Doc?

I bought a 160 gig iPod Classic yesterday and it came with a small dock adapter (looks like a snap in type item). What is it for? I looked at the dock for my iPhone & the dock for my non-video 60 gig iPod (can't remember which generation--it's color display & does pictures), but the adapter did not work in either dock. Is it meant for docks like the Bose Sound Dock?
boldSecond question:bold I tried using my iPod dock with the iPod Classic, but it did not work--it felt like it was loose. Does anyone know of a way to get a dock to work with the iPod Classic?
TIA,
Amy

How hard is it to change out the dock adapter inserts?

Video Editing feature in latest version of Photoshop CS6 does not exist/work. How do I fix this problem?

Hi everyone! I downloaded CS6 for a graphic design class that I was taking. I later found out that you could edit videos with the essentials portion of CS6 since it no longer has to be extended like in CS5. I went to import some videos from bridge and bridge would not allow me to do so. I also tried to open the files in Photoshop and I as I was looking at the type of files that I could open like quicktime files, wmv., mov., etc., I could not find anything relating to opening videos. The only thing that showed up were types of image files to open. Did I buy a faulty version of this program? Is there a way to get the video editing feature back on here or do I have to breakdown and buy Photoshop essentials separately?
Thank you!

Try dropping the video file on CS6 it should open. Maks sure CS6 is up to date. Version 13.0.6 Mac version 13.0.1.3 Windows Version 13.1.2 subscription. Also post you CS6 menu Help>System Info... Copy and paste here. You can see have the subscription version and use Windows 7....
