Nvidia GTX 560ti,570 & 580 video cards

I have upgraded to CS5 after many years of using Premiere 6.5 for SD footage. The move to CS5 was required because I have moved into the HD world. Now it is time to upgrade to one of the CUDA enabled video cards since my Quadro FX4500 does not support CUDA. I had considered the Quadro FX4800, FX4000 or possibly the FX2000 but I was just curious if anyone has had experience with the above mentioned cards and what thier thoughts were.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts..
Dell T5400
16gb
2xQuad Core Xeons 12m/3.33mhz/1333
Quadro FX4500
3x1tb 7200

Xeon 54xx has been succeeded by the Xeon 55xx, which has been succeeded by the Xeon 56xx. That makes it two generations.
Xeon 54xx is about 3 - 4 times slower than the Xeon 56xx. See: PPBM5 Benchmark
I would be very surprised if
a T7500 at work with the
same 3.3ghz processor as my T5400. Running the same software on both,
with the exception of Premier, there is not a 3+ difference in speed.
there were a difference using the same CPU's.

MSI nVidia GTX 560ti Twin frozr III loss of output

Hi folks,
I recently needed my monitor to test another rig and upon plugging it back in I discovered my MSI nVidia GTX 560ti Twin frozr III no longer has video output, I have tried different outputs, different cables, different displays and different motherboard slots to no avail. Had a search around and couldn't find any other instances of this. The card is 2 years old now but has always functioned perfectly (apart from the well publicised memory temperature problem). Any ideas what might be causing this issue?
Regards,

I'm assuming drives and case aren't the issue so not listing them.

The card is 2 years old, but how long wasn't it used for and did you ever had any problems with it?
First of all, I would reset CMOS >>Clear CMOS Guide<< so all the OC is removed (write down settings of CPU OC if you want to use it later on).
Then (I don't know Asus boards) would look through the BIOS if it recognises the card. Possible you should get rid of the possible dust in PCIe slot?
Also: while card is plugged in, run computer and: try all the video ports, even those on motherboard (maybe board doesn't recognise the card and wants to run integrated gpu if there is any).
Last but not least: ask a friend/colleague if you can test your card in their computer. Best if it would be different brand of motherboard, and power supply. Possibly power supply is screwed up somewhere (broken connection)and doesn't deliver enough power to give output.
Does the card start up when you run the PC (fans of the card)?

IMac 24 with Nvidia 7600...bad video card choice?

Hi folks. I've had my iMac 24 incher for a few days now and I went to try one of my favorite game demos, Unreal Tournament 2004 and the performance I got from the video was a lot less than what I thought it would be. I have the game for my Windows machine which is a 3Ghz P4, 2GB RAM, GeForce 6600GT and the performance on that seems way better than my iMac. Why? I thought the video card it in was suppose to be pretty good (GeForce 7600GT 256mb). I changed the settings in UT to the native res of the mac but it didnt' help. Anything I can do about this? Thanks.

He said that he was running the demo. I don't
think
this has been updated to universal binary.
It has been updated. Do a search on versiontracker.
Do you mean this?
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/22450
Versiontracker screwed up again. This is a patch that updates the retail release of UT 2004 for Mac to version 3369.2. It isn't the demo. The demo weighs in at nearly 600 MB. If you have a link to a download of an actual UB demo of UT 2004, please feel free to share.

Accelerating Video Compression w/NVIDIA GTX 285, Mac Pro?

I want to harness the powarrr of the 8 cores and NVIDIA GTX 285 to transcode video to and from various formats. But I don't see OpenCL support listed for Final Cut 7's Compressor. I don't see any mention that Adobe Media Encoder CS4 is accelerated by such GPUs. I'm trying out Toast right now and it's using less than two cores, and going kinda slow (not booted into Snow Leopard at the moment tho).
So the question is, how can I take advantage of the extra power of the GTX 285 for encoding? I know that Qmaster and Compressor will take advantage of the extra cores... but I want to use the FULL power of this battlestation.
Thanks for any tips

Desktop is not defaulting to PCI Express video card

Installed a Nvidia GTX 560TI w/appropriate power supply AFTER disabling secure boot and enabling legacy support. The computer booted to the video card after the second try reboot, drivers successfully installed. Later after attempting to wake the computer from sleep it has defaulted back to the onboard video WITHOUT restarting. Now will not recognize PCI express card.

Hi,
What power supply are your using? The stardard HP 460 watt power supply is insufficient for the NVIDIA 560 TI as it requires two 6 pin PCI-E power connectors.
Go back into the BIOS and make sure that Legacy mode is enabled and Secure boot is disabled. Save the changes and power off. Now power up and see if the system recognizes the discrete video card.
BTW - the PC needs to completely power down and back up before the BIOS will rescan for hardware changes.

What Video Cards ACTUALLY WORK with my G5

I have a Dual core 2.3GHz G5 with a GeForce 6600. I really want to upgrade my video card, but as usual, I can't figure out if any card will actual work. I'm really interested in the 7800 GT and GTX. Nvidia's site says that the entire 7 series of cards work in OS X, but none of the companies that actually make the cards have any mention of Mac support. I'm so frustrated because Nvidia doesn't make any cards, the companies that make them make 4 different versions of each card and don't sell them and the places that do sell them know nothing about them. So can someone PLEASE, post links to the actual cards that work in my machine. thank you.

Nvidia doesn't make the Video Cards.
They make the chips (GPU) that run on the Video Card itself. Most of the Nvidia chipsets are supported by Mac OS X.
The problem is that all Video Cards carry a firmware PROM chip that contains the early-boot code for the card as well as the card's internal operating parameters.
There is a PC version of the firmware, commonly called the VGA BIOS, and there is a Mac version of the firmware, which is designed for OpenFirmware.
The two are completly seperate from each other. A PC card will not operate in a Macintosh, nor will a Macintosh card operate in a PC.
That's your problem- is that the Nvidia chipsets support Mac OS X, but the firmware on the card (which, is up to the manufacture which one they include) may or may not support the Macintosh platform.
Saying that, the only two cards available for the G5 is the 7800 GT and the Quadro 4500. Both cards contain the Apple firmware required for the card to work in a G5.
There are no other manufactures who offer Mac G5 compatible solutions, probably due to Apple's unwillingness to release the said Mac firmware for third party video cards. Thus, it's really one or the other, and Welovemacs.com seems to be the only retailer offering ether of the cards for seperate purchase.

Adobe's site not showing Nvidia GTX 680 as officially supported

Hi everyone, ( July 9, 2012 )
Planning a new system, and I KNOW that the Nvidia GTX 680 is indeed working with PP CS6 and earlier, but I just checked Adobe's site, and there
is not even a hint of the Nvidia GTX 680 being a supported card.
Adobe link to officially supported cards: http://www.adobe.com/products/premiere/tech-specs.html
Any reason why ? Do they need elaborate testing on it, before they can "officially" add it to the list ?
I just want to make 100% certain the Nvidia 680 is indeed OK to purchase.
Thanks !
now I'll duck some bullets, because this question has prob been asked before.
Dave.

>need elaborate testing
Yes
The official list is ALWAYS behind new cards

Video Card Confusion

Greetings. I currently own a Dual 2.7 DP G5. When purchased, I had Apple install the NVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra DDL video card. I am getting ready to purchase the new Mac Pro 2.8. Although a Mac user since 1984, and a bit of a "power-user," if there is one thing I know absolutely nothing about, it's the world of video cards.
With that being said, my question should be fairly easy for any video-card "guru."
If I buy the new machine, should I get it with the stock card and then install my current card, or does this technology advance so rapidly, that although when I purchased the card, it was considered "very high-end," - it ain't so hot, now?
Should I stick with the stock card? Spending an extra $200 on the The GeForce 8800 GT is an option. The one thing that puzzles me, that I have read, is the following: The GeForce 8800 GT video card provides higher performance when playing games but does not seem to support rendering Core Image effects as well. I never play any games, but I do want to drive a new 30" HD and the older 23" Cinema display.
Any help that anyone can offer, will be greatly appreciated. - Frank

A G5 graphics card won't work in a Mac Pro, even though they are both PCI-Express. They have different firmware.
The GeForce 8800 GT card should be faster than the standard card, but apparently some more work is needed on the drivers or pro video software to take advantage of it.

Time to upgrade video card?????

I have a two year old MacPro 2.66 GHz Dual-Core Intel with 4 GB RAM, 4 internal 7200 rpm 500gb HDs and a NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT (256mb) video card. Would upgrading the video card improve the operation of LR2 relative to the rest of my hardware and if so, what make and model would folks recommend? Thanks in advance-

> That said, how much difference could he really expect when going beyond 4GB? In my experience with
> Windows, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of difference between 2GB and 4GB yet, and beyond
> 4GB it seems like the difference is due more to the 64bit aspect and less to the extra RAM.
On Windows, unless you do some deliberate messing around, applications receive a maximum of 2GB even
though the 32-bit processor can access 4GB. The remaining 2GB are reserved for the OS, device
drivers, hardware that's mapped into memory, etc. But that 2GB for applications is the maximum size
of *virtual memory*. If you have 2GB of physical RAM, the app will never get that much physical
memory because Windows reserves some for itself and drivers, etc. Because Windows needs some
physical space for itself, it can be a performance improvement to go to 3GB in a machine so that
applications can (potentially) have their entire 2GB address space in physical memory *and* Windows
can put itself in the extra 1GB of physical memory. Going all the way to 4GB of memory doesn't add
much beyond going to 3 because Windows tends not to need more than 1GB for itself.
Going beyond 4GB can make a huge difference depending on what kind of work you're doing. If you're
doing work with large images, it can make a huge difference and it has little to do with the CPU's
computational performance being any better. It's that the CPU can now address much more physical
memory and thus the app doesn't incur any performance hit paging to/from disk.
Hope this is clear - let me know if not.

Video Cards for Panther

I was ready to install Panther on a Quicksilver 2002. I get it to install and then go through the registration routine. The problem starts when Software Update installs the 10.3.9 Combined Update. When I restart I get what I assume is a kernel panic. It displays the message that I have to hold down the power button and restart the computer, but the same message appears. Is it possible that the video card that I'm using, an Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 PCI video card is not compatible with the Update? I did go and order the exact video card that runs in my other Quicksilver, an Nvidia GeForce 4 MX 64MB AGP. I kind of like Panther and would like to use it. Of course the other issues would be browsers and printer drivers. Thanks for any help in advance.
Specs for this Quicksilver:
933 Mhz CPU
1.5 GB RAM
Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 256 MB PCI
160 GB WD HD
SuperDrive

If I am unable to boot into Panther how do I go about getting a crash log?
The only other way would be to access it by accessing it via another computer with yours in Firewire Target Disk Mode, or from a bootable clone on an external firewire HDD.
Are you able to boot from the install disk or from the Apple Hardware Test disk? If you are you can then boot from the AHT disk and run the extended tests in a loop (Control + L during test). You can also check the directory by booting from the Install disk and running Repair Disk in Disk Utility.

Upgrading my iMac's video card

I have a 24" 2.33Ghz 2nd generation(?) intel iMac and I'm wondering if I can have apple upgrade my Nvidia GeForce 7600 GT 256mb video card. I've been told by someone that this isn't possible, but I'm curious why not? My last card was recently replaced when my display wouldn't come on, so clearly the exactly card can be switched out, but why would Apple be unwilling/unable to upgrade my card?
Message was edited by: Michael Streubert

The video on the eMac, mini(PPC), Macbook Pro, iMac is a single chip soldered onto the Logic board and so is not upgradeable (changeable) if you could unsolder it without damaging the logic board then you would have to find a video chip that :
1/ is the same size
2/ has the number of connections (legs)
3/ is the same pin out
4/ has apple drivers !
Good luck.

[solved] MSI GeForce GTX 560Ti

Ok, I'm sorry to make my debut on this forum a cry for help, but here it goes.
Just bought a MSI GeForce GTX 560Ti as my old card said goodbye with flickering colors and Code 43 error.
Uninstalled the old drivers, removed the old card, slotted in the new one, powered up and was hoping for the best. The result? Nothing.
Nothing but beeps from the BIOS (2+8), and a screen who wont react at all. Just goes off in to power saving mode.
Any ideas?
EDIT: I'm so stupid, I should have been required to carry a license. Problem solved by myself.

How? Someone might make the same error and your solution may help.

What video card do I need to make Photoshop CC 2014 to use 3D? I have NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M 4096 MB graphics.

What video card do I need to make Photoshop CC 2014 to use 3D? I have NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M 4096 MB graphics.

A couple of questions:
1. Have you tried resetting your preferences?
2. If you go to Preferences > Performance - is "Use Graphics Processor" enabled? If not, can you select it?
Your system should be fine to support 3D in PS CC 2014. Once I have more information from you we can move onto next steps if necessary.
Thanks,

This is my experience with MSI, and their NVIDIA GTX 570 reference card.

Hello my name is James king.
and This is my experience with MSI, and their NVIDIA GTX 570 reference card.
(5/27/12) Day one. I update my driver from Beta 301.24 To WHQL 301.42. and as you would expect, it worked. so i restart and go play kerbal space program (if you haven't played this go, play it now i love it) 5 minutes later it starts artifacting, eg. textures stretching, random green spots. "ugh" so i start troubleshooting, reinstall revert and so on. later i give up and go play Portal 2, i load the game opening screen i see lots (100-250) of little flickering green dots. first instincts says its the cable, test nope. then maybe the screen, test nope. i keep testing throughout the night, to no avail.
(5/28/12) so to the internet, for help. 3 hours later nothing, but people with bad cards. at opening i call NVIDIA Tech Support, they say to call MSI so i do. 3 calls no pick up, 4th call and i get a "Support technician" who is no help, says to fill out a RMA form online. and so i do more troubleshooting for the rest of the day. and i give up, and go to bed.
(5/29/12) i fill out a RMA form, end of day i get an email from MSI that says; "Dear Valued Customer [email] your RMA is pending approval, and you will get an email within 1 weak with shipping information.
(6/1/12) shipping information, instructions, but no shipping label.
(6/4/12) i ship the card, via UPS
(6/12/12) after using the most round about route eg. it got to MSI.

(6/14/12) email from MSI, says it is in procesing.
(6/20/12) email from MSI, saying they shipped it and that [this] is the tracking number.
(6/26/12) end of day. i receive the card, and see the case is badly scratched. i install it in my pc and hey it worked (for now). watch some YouTube, and go to play skyrim. start up load my save and i make one step, and my pc hard freezes. "sigh" half an hour later, i give up and go play minecraft 10 minutes in, and it hard freezes. so now more troubleshooting,5 hours later no luck.
(6/27/12) i have called MSI Tech Support 2 times, when they picked up the phone they say to call customer service. 7 calls later no pickup.
and that is it MSI have sent my on the run around too long.

Video card issue - nvidia gtx 650 ti in a HP xw 4600

I am installing a nvidia gtx 650 ti into a HP xw 4600 running win 7. At start up we are getting 6 beeps and no monitor output.
We tried the card in a different machine and it worked, so we know the card is good. Any assitance would be appreciated!
We have upgraded the power supply to 600W thinking that was the problem, no joy.
Any other thoughts?

From the troubleshooting guide:
http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01973592.pdf
it's a pre-video graphics error - try to reseat the graphics card.
Well, I think you have done that already.
This is an office workstation designed for quadro graphics cards ...
Maybe you need a BIOS update:
