Recommend compatible PSU and graphics card for P35D3?

Recommend compatible PSU and graphics card for P35D3?
This weekend I’ll be taking my rig to a PC repair shop and ask them to swap out my PSU and my graphics card.
Because I’ve RMA’d all the components (see signature) several members of different forums, and the tech support of the various components, seem to think that my boot problem is because of a compatibility issue with either my Ultra X3 600W PSU or my XFX 8600 GT and my P35D3.
I need to be ready to make decision, without having time to research, if the repair tech recommends a replacement.
Here’s my considerations:
I selected the Ultra because it's both modular and 85% efficient (it also has the required 8-pin cable to power the P35D3's CPU and it has SATA power cables.
I selected the XFX 8600 GT card because it is dual-link (2 DVI outs -- Dell 30” & Viewsonic 19”) and it has no fan, and is DX10 ready. I’m not attached to the idea of no fan. I’m a speed freak but not a gamer or an over clocker--I like the option of trying out games.
Both the Ultra and the XFX are somewhat medium priced.
If the repair tech discovers that other PSUs or graphic cards work then I might be able to get Ultra or XFX to accept a return. Neither company accepted my offer to pay extra to exchange mine for another better model.
Suggestions please.
Thank you,
Kerry

Thanks Boss,

Please could someone confirm the Graphics card needed to support a Eizo ColorEdge CG275W monitor, resolution 2560x1440

Hello, community, Please could someone confirm the Graphics card needed to support a Eizo ColorEdge CG275W monitor, resolution 2560x1440. I currently have a Mac Pro with a NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT VRAM (Total): 256 MB, which I'm guessing by it's age will not handle the new monitor. Any advice greatly appreciated.

I would dump the 7300GT regardless and get the ATI 5770 $249

Hi there Chiefinho,
You may find the troubleshooting steps toward the bottom of the article below helpful. Please keep in mind, diagnosing a recurring kernel panic can be difficult. If you would like to avoid this process, or do not know how to perform any of the following steps, consider bringing the Mac to a Genius at an Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider for assistance. Be sure to ask that, if the drive needs reformatting or replacing, they contact you about escalating your case to a special data recovery service. If you plan to visit an Apple Retail store, make a reservation at the Genius Bar using http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/ (available in some countries only).

1gb graphics cards vs 2gb graphics cards in PS5.1

What is the advantage of using a 2gb graphics card over a 1gb one. Is it say when I am opening many images say over 20 if i have a 1gb card it will start to use system memory where a 2gb will use more of its own?

Using a 2GB Graphics card will mean you will have more dedicated memory for task related to rendering images, while allowing Photoshop still use system memory for everything else. For example if you have allocated in your preferences for Photoshop to use 4GB of your 6GB of system memory and you also havea 2GB Graphics Card, then the total resources Photoshop has available for all task is 6GB, 2GB dedciated specifically for rendering, animating, zooming shading, 3D graphics, rendering filters and so on.
This also means you have more multi-tasking power. Most people will tell you that Photoshop is CPU heavy and not GPU heavy so that more RAM and better Processors are more important than your video card. However what they are neglecting is that any resources you free up are to your advantage, so any CPU and RAM that the GPU free's up means its more for you to use elsewhere. Make sense? The more overall power you have at any level means that resources can be spared accordingly.

Any recommendations for a new Graphics card for Prem Pro 2014 (Windows) that offers Mercury Playback Engine GPU acceleration?

Hi.
I am led to believe I could benefit from GPU acceleration when editing as my PC is a little under spec. I do have a card but when I switch to GPU acceleration it does work but every time I stop moving / playing / scrubbing on the timeline the preview screen goes black.
I am not sure which might be the best card to obtain for my reqs. I dont think I put the biggest of demands on the software but it does still struggle. Most of my editing is 3 - 10 min long interviews. 2 camera multi-cam editing. I invariably have need to edit RGB curves, three way colour corrector, transitions and sometimes Neat noise reduction. Any of those leaves my PC struggling. All the usual titles, music & voice-overs etc but nothing too heavy going like making films or inserting lots of video lines.
I also do an occasional bit of work in After effects too.
PC spec is:
Intel Xeon CPU 1.86GHz (2 processors)
12GB RAM which I am going to upgrade to 16GB
64 bit op system
Windows 7
Radeon HD 5450 graphics card.
Any guidance would be much appreciated

Thanks for insight. I am not technical but I suspect your right about the base technology of my PC. The processors and RAM (even if I upgrade) are probably too limited. I was not so sure about the relationship between the main processor and the graphic card. I rather hoped that the card would get round the limitations of the CPU's.
I maybe need to invest some time looking in to improving the spec of my PC. Any thoughts on a suitable spec from anyone would be helpful bearing in mind my relatively narrow editing needs.
Even so I will look at the GTX 660 and see what it might offer. The only reason I thought the 5450 might offer GPU acceleration was because the option was available to select in the preferences in PremPro. Figured it wouldn't be an option otherwise. Certainly doesnt seem to work correctly or offer any advantage so gone back to software only.
This is not going to be a quick or inexpensive resolution by the looks of it :-)
Thanks again for input.

Could You Please Recommend a DLT and SCSI Card

Hi,
I've checked the forums thoroughly to see what DLT drives are best, and I'm considering buying a Compaq External 15/30 Gb DLT Tape Back-Up Drive from Ebay UK, but I can't find the ATTO SCSI card that is highly recommended.
All the SCSI cards on Ebay UK are for Adaptec - which most of these threads say to avoid.
I checked Ebay USA and although there are a few, I don't know which one would be right for this drive.
I only want the drive for submitting DVD9 projects to a replicator so I assume I don't need a DLT drive any larger than the 15GB on offer. But is there any drive I would be better off buying other than the one I have mentioned?
Can't find the 7000 series that so many people use.
I'm using a Mac G4 867Mhz PowerPC and I have DVDSP 2.

Instead of a SCSI card, i use a Belkin SCSI to Firewire adapter that works great. I think they have become pretty hard to find, but i think Ratoc makes one that could work.
A quick ebay search for ATTO SCSI revealed many items compatible with your mac that ship world wide. Check Atto website for compatibility.

What's best.. ATI 5770 or 5870 1GB Graphics Card?

I have to buy a new Mac Pro, so I'm looking at the 3.2 Quad-Core with 16GB ram. I run large image files with many layers in CS5 extended and will be moving up to CS6 extended. All of my image management is through LR4 as well as several plug-ins. So is the ATI 5870 1GB card worth the extra $150 upgrade price over the ATI 5770. I'd prefer to wait for the new Mac Pro models coming in 2013 but I do have to make a living. I've been using the ATI 5770/1GB with no issues on a 2.66 MacPro running Mountain Lion. I'm running dual NEC 27" PA271w displays.

The upgrade price I see in the Apple Store is $200 for the 5870.
Personally, I'd skip the 5870 GPU upgrade (which I understand runs loud and hot and is a power hog) and grab the 6 core upgrade for $500 instead. The RAM for the quad core 3.2GHz runs at 1066MHz and the 6 core 3.33GHz RAM runs at 1333MHz.
So for a $300 difference (vs quad core with 5870) you pick up 50% more processing power across the board.
Check out www.barefeats.com for speed comparisons like this one http://www.barefeats.com/pscs6.html
PSCS6 features the Mercury Graphics Engine (MGE) which takes great advantage of GPU, but only certain filters are accelerated: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4289204#4289204
For my money a MacPro that's faster on all fronts is the better deal. You can swap out the GPU later, but the CPU is definitely best ordered up-front. I have the 2010 6 core 3.33 Westmere and combined with an SSD runing just the OS and APPs, it really sings. Plus the price has come down quite a lot on the 6-core option with the 2012 models (used to cost additional $1200 I think).
Here's Digilloyd's take on MacPro configuration http://macperformanceguide.com/Mac-HowToConfigureAMacPro.html NOTE that he suggests 24-48GB of RAM for intensive Photoshop work.
Here's another BareFeats test (from Sept 2010, but then these are old GPUs) http://www.barefeats.com/wst10g7.html
and you'll see that while the 5870 beats the 5770 for some things (but ties on many), the 6-core 3.33GHz Westmere beats everything else on the list -- and is roughly twice the overall speed of your 2.66GHz quad-core from 2006 even with a 5770.
Hope that helps!

Please recommend IO Mapped Digital IO Card

I Have a requirement for a IO Mapped Digital IO card. It must be IO mapped so that I can talk directly to it from an intelligent device on a PCI bus, without involving the host.
I need to be able to find the IO Map and be able to control the state of IO lines by directly writing to IO ports on the PC.

Does the card need to appear in memory space (like most PCI cards) or IO space (mostly used by ISA)? Any NI PCI board appears in memory space, so you should be able to access it directly, just like system memory. But I am not aware of any DIO cards which use IO space (except ISA cards).

Graphics card for G5 Quad

Can anyone recommend a suitable second graphics card for a G5 Quad? More and more I work now with importing TV programmes and films into QT,but still need to use my VHS from time to time.My plan is to ditch my CRT monitor and move over to an LCD.That's fine for viewing a digital source from within the Mac,but how can I also hook up the VHS sop that I can use that with the LCD also?
Thanks for any advice

I wouldn't add a second graphics card, too much demand on the PCI bus, and may cause problems with audio artifacts, we had that problem, plus horrible speed penalties. (We were using a MOTU 24i/o as well). My recommendation would be to use the firewire output to video (using a firewire device like the Canopus ADV-110) OR a card with dual display (Does yours support dual display? the ATI does) and put a scan converter on the second output. i hope that will do what you need.

Graphics card HELP for premiere pro CC

So I've spent hours reading numerous forums in regards to what graphics card is best suitable for premiere pro cc that isn't overly priced (I.e. Quadro k4000 and 5000) I'm trying to stick in the 400-500 range for the PC I'm in the process of building. I need to know anyone's recommendations for a GOOD graphics card that isn't so expensive? I know they exist, I'm just not sure which fits best for premiere pro CC as well as the rest of adobe CC. I mean I hear people mentioning AMD vs quadro and GTX 680, etc. I know there's a list of approved cards from adobe, but that isn't what I'm looking for. I want one that will give excellent performance without emptying my wallet costing so much. Please, any suggestions are greatly appreciated, thanks guys!
-Andy

Actually, I tend to agree with cc. That i7-4770 cannot be overclocked at all - not even in a limited manner (outside of the normal turbo boosting) - to start with (the maximum multiplier on the Haswell i7 CPUs is permanently locked to its nominal stock setting or its maximum stock turbo setting, depending on how the motherboard BIOS reads the settings). Second, that i7 has only four physical cores (albeit with hyperthreading). Third, no single non-RAID 7200 RPM hard disk has a sustainable maximum transfer speed above 190 MB/s even on the outer tracks (where the transfer speed is typically highest). As a matter of fact, I tested my auxiliary PC that's equipped with an i5-2400 and 16GB of RAM, and tested it with both older-generation GPUs (a GTX 560 non-Ti and a GTX 560 Ti 448-core), and while the GTX 560 Ti 448-core did perform about 50 percent faster than the plain GTX 560 (39 seconds versus 59 seconds - or put it in converse, the GTX 560 performed one-third slower than the GTX 560 Ti 448) in the MPEG-2 DVD test of the PPBM6 suite, the real-world improvement does not come anywhere close to the benchmarked difference (with either GPU, the i5 system took between an hour and an hour and a half to convert 40 minutes of HD material to MPEG-2 DVD using the VBR 2-pass method). This means that with such longer material, the CPU and memory performance comes more into play.
Oh, did I forget to mention that Western Digital and its HGST subsidiary are the only brands that offer a consumer-level (desktop, as opposed to enterprise) 4TB hard drive that spins at 7200 RPM? (Seagate's 4TB hard drive spins at only 5900 RPM while Toshiba does not currently offer a consumer-level 4TB hard drive.) Outside of WD and HGST, you'll have to buy a much more expensive enterprise-level drive to even find a 4TB drive that spins at 7200 RPM.
And unfortunately, at current street prices, the lower-end GT/GTX 6xx series GPUs are just too expensive for their performance. In fact, the GTX 650 Ti Boost and the GTX 660 are both priced too close to that of a GTX 760 for their own good right now (unless you go for a card that's equipped with the less desirable 1GB VRAM configuration based on either of those GPUs).

I am trying to find out the proper graphic card for mac.

I am trying to find out the proper graphic card for imac. The graphic card which is mentioned in the web sit, that Graphic Card is not available in the open market. In open market NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M and NVIDIA GeForce GT 755M is available and this card is not mentioned in web site. So please help to select a proper suitable GPU.

Are they supportable for After Effects ray-traced 3d renderer.
I am confused because adobe recommended on the following graphic card.

What graphics card to use? (i3, 16GB Ram)

Hello!
So I'm planning on upgrading my computer, since I am only moderatly pleased with the Intel onboard Graphics Card. I would also like to do it as cheap as possible (So for around 250$) I also need the card capacity to support 3 monitors.
My current specs:
Motherboard:      ASUS P8 LX Z77-V
Prozessor:          Intel i3-3220T @2.80 GHz
Memory:             16.0 Gb
Power Supply:    500W
OS:                    Windows 7, 64 Bit
Storage:             2 Hard Drives
I'm mostly running AfterEffects and Premiere CS6 (Planning on a upgrading to CC) and would like to get as much speed for it as possible.
So I'm planning on buying an SSD to Export/Inport Footage and to store the Programm on. And now I need to find e fitting graphics card,
At first I was thinking an Nvidia GeForce GTX 760, but a friend of mine said my Processor and Memory wouldn't be enough to feed the card the data it can take, is that true?
He then told me that the GTX 650 would be good, but I personally aren't convinced it is good enough...
So what would you recommend me? I'm so lost :/
Thanks alot
Alec

Alec,
If you go for that GTX 760, you'd only be throwing away good money after bad, in your instance (as cc_merchant has stated). I would only get that GPU if you're planning to upgrade the CPU and/or motherboard, as well as the amount of RAM and an additional number of disks, in the near future. If on the other hand you'll be stuck with that dual-core i3 for years to come, don't waste your money on anything higher than a 1GB GTX 650 since the i3 CPU doesn't handle the editing of any video at any resolution above 480i SD very well (I was going to say 320x240, but almost all 320x240 video is encoded in distribution codecs that are unsuitable for editing). The 2GB version of the GTX 650 is overkill for that present i3 setup, in this case, since the CPU just can't handle any content that requires more than 1GB of VRAM well.
As for the GT 640, be aware that there are two different versions of the GT 640: Most top-tier graphics card brands still sell the original version of the GT 640, based on a GK107 GPU and using 128-bit DDR3 VRAM that has a throughput of only 28.5 GB/s. A few lesser-known graphics card brands have started to sell a newer version of the GT 640, based on a GK208 GPU and 64-bit GDDR5 VRAM that has a throughput of 40.1 GB/s. But given the relatively low clock speed of that i3-3220T and the fact that it neither has a Turbo Boost feature nor can be overclocked at all, even the original GT 640 may suffice for many uses for that PC.

Which MAC Pro graphics card and how much RAM for FCE HD usage?

I plan on purchasing a MAC Pro afer MacWorld Expo next month. Any recommendations for a specific graphics card that would complement my usage of Final Cut Express HD 3.5?
Also, should I increase my RAM? I currently use 2 gb of RAM on my G4. Will I see greater productivity if I bump it up to 4gb of RAM on the MAC Pro or will 2gb suffice which I had planned to increase it to from the standard 1gb supplied?
PowerMAC G4 dual 1.42ghz Mac OS X (10.4.7) 2gb RAM, 3-LaCie FW800 external drives
PowerMAC G4 dual 1.42ghz Mac OS X (10.4.7) 2gb RAM, 3-LaCie FW800 external drives

Any of the graphics cards that Apple sells for the Mac Pro will be fine. Personally, I'd suggest choosing one with at least 128MB video RAM, 256MB would be better.
2GB RAM in your Mac Pro will be more than enough for general purpose video editing. Going to 4GB will give you more oomph for RealTime effects and somewhat for rendering but you won't see a big difference in regard to capturing or general editing in the timeline.

Please recommend a suitable 1GB Graphics card.
