PCI Card, Macbook Pro Support?

I've had my 17" MacBook Pro for about 3 months now. I want to purchase FCP, but I've heard stories about the program being incompatible right out of the box.
My biggest concern is my graphics card. It's a Radeon X1600, and I know I have AGP support. I'm not certain if my card is PCI express...which I assume is needed?
Any input would be appreciated.

FCP works fine on the MacBook Pro. Even Motion will. Heck, FCP 5.1.3 is working fine on my G4 Powerbook. You'll have no problems.
It is the regular MacBooks that have issues with MOTION...not FCP. FCP still works fine.
People edit with MacBook Pros all the time.

I usually have 2 or less Gb of available RAM. Can my computer run these?

Your MacBook Pro supports that game without any problem. The only issue you may have is related to the GPU in case you have got a 13-inch MacBook Pro, because the integrated GPU may not work well with games, but this can be solved by setting lower game settings.
The amount of RAM required by the game refers to the total amount of RAM your Mac has got, so you can also run it. To make sure you have the maximum amount of RAM available, close all apps while you are playing. You do not need any application while you are using any game

How to know my macbook pro supports usb2 or usb3?

How to know my macbook pro supports usb2 or usb3 ?
And if it is USB 2, will external hardisk which support usb 2 would be compatible with & vice-versa?
What would be the cons?

USB 3.0 ports were only added to those MacBook Pros that were released in mid 2012 and later.
So you would have USB 2.0 ports on your machine.
But USB 3.0 and 2.0 are 'compaitble,' somewhat - you just won't be able to get the throughput of a USB 3.0 to USB 3.0 connection.

Will my 2009 macbook pro support a higher operating system than OS 10.5

Will my 2009 macbook pro support a higher operating system than OS 10.5.8?

For any upgrades, you will need to purchase this Snow Leopard disk from the Apple online store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
After installing Snow Leopard (10.6.3) you should perform a software update and install 10,6.8. That will permit the installation of either Lion, Mt. Lion or Mavericks, depending upon your needs and/or preferences.
Ciao.

No. 10.7 never came one a disk. Read this:
Restoring iLife applications after Internet Restore of OS X Lion
If you reinstall Lion on a new Mac that shipped with OS X Lion installed, on an erased or replaced hard drive, you can download iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand from the Mac App Store.
After installation, start from Lion.
Double-click the App Store icon in the dock.
Enter your Apple ID and password.
Click Purchases.
If you haven't previously accepted your bundled iLife applications within the Mac App Store, you should see your iLife applications appear in the Accept portion of the screen. Click Accept.
You may be asked for your Apple ID and password once again. Your iLife applications now move to the Purchased section. These applications are part of the software that came with your Lion based computer. Your account will not be charged for them. Click Install to compete installation of your applications.

HT202856 What resolutions and refresh rates does the MacBook Pro support?

Why does this article provide lots of useful information EXCEPT the piece I want? It does not show what resolutions and refresh rates the MacBook Pro supports over Displayport:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6008
I've heard it only supports 4k at 30 Hz. Is this true?

For some reason Displays no longer shows that information, so I don't know what it is. However, the last time I saw the information on a 2009 MBP it was 75.
I'd think there is a utility around that might provide the info like Display Maestro 1.1.7 or SwitchResX.

Intel Iris Pro GPU in new Macbook Pros supported by the Mercury Playback Engine?

Is the Intel Iris Pro GPU in the new Macbook Pros supported by the Mercury Playback Engine?

Hi,
I've been wondering the same thing. I watched this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATKDuQOQw9k
if you jump to 07:50 the dude clearly shows that it IS supported in PPRo CC (which I have), but when I go to the project settings on my new MBP 15" with identical specs, the area where I can select gpu support is greyed out with no options to change from software only. Did the expert guy in the video accidentally show the settings from his old NVIDIA MBP? Very confusing!! Also, there's a lot of publicity around the Intel Iris Pro's great ability to render Open CL with Adobe PPRo. And even a video about it here:
http://software.intel.com/en-us/videos/accelerating-video-production-with-opencl-and-intel -iris-graphics
Is this only for PC?? If so I imagine Adobe can get this going on Mac pretty damn fast, no?
Please advise Adobe folk!
Thanks!

How do I tell if my MacBook Pro supports 802.11n 5GHz?

As I wait for my Apple Extreme Base Station, I was wondering if it would make sense to create two different SSID networks. One Mixed b/g for 2.4GHz devices and another one solely for 5GHz. I know my ATV2 supports 802.11n in 5GHz. As I go down my list of devices in my house, I can't tell if my MacBook Pros support the 5GHz. Both MacBook Pros are Mid 2010 models.
The reason for creating two different networks is that the AEBS downgrades your network based on the lowest device (i.e. b/g would be forced on a n device if such device connects to your network).

Of course, you are aware that n operates in both 2.4 and 5GHz.
Check AirPort in System Profiler. It should list supported modes and supported channels. Then compare supported channels to the list of WLAN channels in the 5GHz band.

New MacBook Airs and MacBook Pros supporting Snow Leopard?

Do the new MacBook Airs and MacBook Pros support the Snow Leopard OS? I have been trying to install 10.6 but the screen is blacking out after install for the Air and I cannot even boot into an external drive for the Pro. Any suggestions or help?

Kada,
A Mac's Firmware is designed to reject the installation of a Mac operating system that predates the version and build the unit originally shipped with. There is a good reason for it, as earlier versions would unlikely be in anyway compatible with the hardware. An OS that predates the hardware would not have the requisite drivers for the built-in peripherals, such as the graphics subsystem and ports. The safetey measure prevents Apple from having to deal with the potential nightmare of users having problems they are not prepared to alleviate.
You may be able to physically create a working situation by running an earlier build using a VM layer, such as using Parallels or Fusion, but Snow Leopard's single user licensing doesn't lawfully permit it. Snow Leopard's Server edition does however. Then again, it still wouldn't solve your scenario, as you would be running Lion or Mountain Lion to support the VM.

Can my Macbook Pro support dual boot and Secret World

Hi
My MacBook Pro has the following specs
Processor 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB
Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 (11E53)
I was wondering if it can first of all, support dual boot, because I would like to play a Windows based MMORPG. And I was wondering if there are risks involved? I'm also worried because I like Mac's secure delete trash function and won't having a Windows platform affect that?
Furthermore, can it support playing Secret World with such specs?
Secret World is an MMORPG I'm not sure what the minimum requirements are.. It doesn't say, but anyone has a guess?
-EDIT
OS:      Windows XP (SP 1)/Vista (SP 1)/Windows 7 (SP 1)
PROCESSOR:      2.6 GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo or equivalent AMD CPU
MEMORY: At least 2GB RAM for Windows XP / 3GB RAM for Windows Vista and Windows 7 *
VIDEO CARD:     nVidia 8800 series 512 VRAM or better/Radeon HD3850 512MB or better
DIRECTX: DirectX 9.0c Compatible

If you have an MBP with a Core 2 Duo processor and a clock speed of 2.16 or 2.33 GHz, your max is 3 GB. If you have a 2.2, 2.4, 2.5 or 2.6 GHz clock speed your max is 4 GB.
Check Apple menu > About this Mac for processor type and speed.
I can tell you what you should see - C2D at 2.16 or 2.33 GHz. Those machines have a 3 GB max stated by Apple, but will actually use ~3.2 GB if you have 2 x 2 GB installed, and you get the (marginal) benefit of having a matched pair. In that case, it's also 'normal' for About this Mac to show 4 GB even though the memory controller can only access a little over 3 GB.
