QuadroFX 500 with dual 20" ACDs?

Does anyone know the compatibility of this card with dual 20" Cinema Displays?
My boss has kindly OK'd me to have two of these panels, but I'm struggling to find a definitive answer on if my dual DVI 128mb Quadro FX500 video card (in a Dell Precision 450 running XP SP2) will work or not?
TIA,
Paul

The main issue with driving two displays is that it divides the video RAM between the displays. So, your 128MB card acts like two 64MB cards. This isn't likely an issue unless you're playing games or doing something that needs to load textures onto the video card (e.g., Aperture, Motion).
There shouldn't be a noticeble difference in Final Cut since, as you know, it isn't currently GPU accelerated. After Effects, on the other hand, can use the GPU to accelerate previews, depending on the version of AE that you have.

  • Dual 20" ACD with Geforce 6600

    Hi, is anyone here using dual 20" ACDs with the 6600? I have the stock 6600 in my dual-core 2.3. I read in another thread that performance wasn't great, but that was in relation to Aperture.
    What's performance like otherwise? I'm thinking in terms of Final Cut and After Effects, applications that aren't GPU-intensive, but experience with similar would be useful.
    Thanks!

  • Triple Boot 2010 Macbook Pro with Dual Drive

    I have a 2010 Macbook pro running Mavericks and Windows 7 on a 250gb SSD. I just removed the cd drive and installed my old 250 gb hard drive. So now I have two drives. I would like to make the hard drive purely for a linux distribution.
    How should I go about doing this?
    Some things to note/ consider:
    1.   I have no CD drive so I would like to boot up from a USB.
    2.   I read that Mavericks has issues with dual booting. So I can't trust many sources?
    3.   What file format should I erase the new drive to.
    4.   Also should I use rEFInd for booting purposes?
    5.   I am aware there are plety of tutorials that walk you through installing linux but I want to have
         A second hard drive JUST for linux.
    My current plan is:
    Reformat drive with Mac OS Extended (journalized).... Install rEFInd.... Burn ubuntu ISO to flash drive... install ubuntu though rEFInd?
    I have no clue if this is at all correct
    Thanks in advance...

    First the scratch. Like you said, most everyone has a different take on scratch discs but I'd guess you're wasting one heck of a lot of hard drive space using all 500 GB for Scratch, did I read that right? If I did read it correctly YES, partition it and get some use out of it!!
    I've got a unibody MBP 2.93GHz, OS 10.5.8, CS3 & PS 5 (running in 32bit mode), and 8 gigs of ram. I've partitioned the one 300 GB drive so 50GB is scratch, the other partition is for OS, & Apps, and documents (images).
    I use LR 2 first than export to PS 5 to finish up. My photos get to be 300MB to 500MB in size and both versions of PS work on this setup just fine. Using PS 5 in 64 bit mode is faster opening files but NON of my plugin's are 64 bit yet, that's why I'm still stuck in 32 bit mode.
    Not knowing what size or kind of files you work on makes giving advice a bit tough but try setting the status indicator (don't know the right name for it) in the bottom left corner of any PS open file to "Efficiency" and watch what happens when you process your files. I rarely see mine drop below 90%, I've got the usable RAM in PS Prefs set to it's max suggested, cut way back on History and Cache.
    Can't wait for NIK and others to offer their plugin in 64 bit, later this year is what I was told.
    There used to be an old "rule of thumb" with old version of PS about Scratch disc size. I don't remember exactly but it may have been 3 to 5 times the size of your biggest file??
    Good luck, Alan

    Hey Guys,
    I fail to see the Logic in "don't buy dual core now... it’s too expensive… wait till the price drops in 2006." You don't HAVE to buy dual core... but since it's here... there really is no reason not to. You still need a processor now to get you through till 2006... So that means spending $300 (CND + Tax) on a 3200+ and then in 2006... Spending another 400 (maybe even 500) on a 4400+... so in the end you'll still have spent close to $800.
    By buy dual core now... you get to use it NOW!... so you also have to take that into consideration. I've already returned my San Diego 4000+ and waiting till June 12th for the 4400+ to get in stock. I don't think I’ve seen anyone in here using a dual core with the 1.4 BIOS, so I’m not sure if 1.4 will work at all... But everyone seems to be say that 1.5 will become official in early June... with dual core support and a VDIMM of up to 3.1v
    Just my $.02
    Point well taken, but add this, what is going to change between now and then? I like to set back read reviews and watch them work out the bugs before I buy. All to often we get burned buying to quick in the Pc Market. And last point "use it NOW" may I ask on what? Now I just through that in so give me some links to read, because iam not uptodate on Dual core except the price.

  • Trouble with Neo4 Platnum and AMD X2 with dual channel memory

    I just installed an X2 3800+ in my Neo4 Platnum board.  The board had a 3500 in it and ran fine.  When I installed the X2, the machine will no longer POST if the memory is in the dual channel mode.  I flashed to the latest BIOS (1.8) and it still does not work.  I am using 2 Corsair XMS 2-2-2-5 Dimms each at 512MB.  The PC POSTs fine if I place both modules in the Green slots.  It does not work with 1 in green and 1 in purple (with either Dimms1-2 or 3-4).  Has anyone else seen this?

    Todd,
    Your last post help me understand your situation a bit better.  Here are some questions for you:
    1- On your old system did these memory sticks work fine has a dual channel pair? Were these 2 memory sticks bought has a dual channel rated matched pair?
    2- In your own words give me your definition of POST?
    3- In your own words give me your exact detailed rendition of what happens when you try to post with dual setup. (How far do you get? Where does it hang up?)
    4- Can you access your BIOS if booting with only one memory stick? If so, this is only for testing purposes, set your memory as 2.5,3,3,8, and 2T and add 0.05 volts to both your CPU and memory recommended voltages. Save, exit, and then shut down your system. Re-install the second stick of RAM in a proper dual channel slot. Re-boot and see what happens. If successful posting and booting in dual channel with this BIOS config go back to your BIOS and tighten your board and memory timings one at a time until you ID the perfect BIOS config for your CPU and RAM. Do the same with your CPU & RAM voltages.
    AMD CPUs encompass their own memory control devices. There might just be enough variance between your older & newer AMD chips to reject dual configuration. If this is the case you may be able to correct it by using step for above. If this does not work, you sould borrow some suitable and proven dual channel memory sticks from a friend to see if the will work in your rig as dual channel?
    Just keep on trucking & you'll solve it

  • Dual-DMVPN Design with Dual Hubs on a single router ??

    Hi All,
    In DMVPN, in Dual-DMVPN Design with Dual Hubs , can a single router perform the role of dual hubs.
    The router has two different internet links. It is intended that when one link goes down, spokes shud connect to the same router onto the other active internet connection. Is this possible ?

    Since no one has answered yet, I'll give you the practical answer.
    You'll have issues with IPSec and static routing. "DMVPN" itself probably wouldn't have an issue, but it would depend on IPSec and routing to work.
    It is easier, by far, to put in a second router. And when you factor in your time to try to make it work (and it may not work), the second router is less expensive.

  • Use of business partner functionality in combination with dual control

    Is there a generally agreed upon procedure to use the business partner functionality in combination with dual control? The problem is that when you block a business partner, the customer/ vendor master data aren't blocked automatically. You can then still use them in transactions, which leads to problems.
    So is there a way to make this work or a procedure to do this?
    Niels Vanwingh

    Thanks Masa,
    I did notice the 'Add external supplier from' in create supplier or bidder option. However there is a small catch and your experience may help.
    Let me explain the requirement and scenario here in SRM 7.
    We are implementing the Registration of Supplier scenario; both ROS and SRM are in same client. When a potential supplier registers themselves in the registration system, a BP number is created (an Internal number range is defined for this). After accepting the potential supplier in pre-select screen the purchaser has two options to transfer the potential supplier from the ROS system to SRM
    Option 1: He can select the accepted potential supplier from the supplier directory option and transfer the business partner to SRM. In this case the business partner number of the potential supplier is retained in SRM and a business partner with supplier and bidder tag is created. However the purchaser does not have any option to select which type of business partner he would like to create like supplier or bidder.
    Option 2: Purchase can go to create supplier or bidder option and choose the u2018Add external supplier formu2019 from the ROS system and create the business partner. The ROS business partner details are copied to the create supplier screen, but the purchaser have to provide an external business partner number for the supplier. This is because we have defined external number range for business partner for the vendors that are replicated from ERP to SRM.
    Objective is the ROS business partner should be retained in SRM with option to create as supplier and bidder and then manually create ERP supplier with same SRM BP number and map against SRM supplier.
    Is there any way we can achieve this?
    In SRM 5.5 with Manage business partner functionality we could achieve as system give us the option which business partner type we would like to create as well as retains the ROS BP number in SRM.
    Regards

  • New IMac 27"with dual internal hard drives

    How do I manage Data on my new IMac 27"with dual internal hard drives?  I have just migrated my data to my new computer.  Since I've done it from a TM backup, it all went to the Analog HD. Ressearching online I've figured I could re-run Migrating assistant and replace different data between the SSD and the Analog.  My problem now is: I want to keep my Music Library (iTunes), my Aperture Library and my documents on the analog, and use the SSD for System, Users and Apps.  Aperture, is easy, because both Aperture and iPhoto can find their way, bt iTunes and My documents are a issue.  Can Anyone help me?

    Install OS X on the SSD:
    Install or Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
      1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
      2. After DU loads select your SSD volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the left side list. Click on
          the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on the Security button and set the Zero
            Data option to one-pass. Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button. Be sure to change the target disk to your SSD.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    After you boot from the SSD open Users & Groups preferences. Click on the lock and authenticate. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the user account and select Advanced Options. You will see a Home Dir: field with a Browse button on the right. Click on the button. Navigate to the HDD's Users folder. Select your account folder then click on the Open/Choose button. You must restart immediately.
    Upon the restart your SSD system will now be using your actual Home folder located on the HDD. You can then go about installing your applications or copying them from the HDD to the Applications folder on the SSD (and also from the Utilities folder on the HDD to the one on the SSD.) You will likely need to do some transfers of the Applications Support and Preferences folders found in the main Library folder.

  • Receiving multiple files with dual extension using file adapter

    Hi,
    The scenario where I am implementing requires multiple files of different names to be picked(ABC.txt) and dropped at destination(ABC.txt.pgp) up by my File Sender and Receiver adapters.  Any idea on about how the configuration for receiving multiple files with dual extension for receiver adapter is to be done?
    Note:- currently, The scenario is working fine without dual extension. i.e Its picking all files which starts with ABC and creating at destination as it is. even I configured as ABC.txt.pgp, but its not creating the second extension.
    Thanks in Advance

    Hi,
    Try to concatenate '.pgp ' to the source file name to create the target file name for the receiver file adapter, by accessing the Adapter Specific Attributes using Java user defined function. This might work.

  • How to use Real time execution trace toolkit with Dual-core processor??

    hi there
    the situation as follows:
    i have a computer (PC and Laptop) types with Dual-core processors, and am trying to do simulation using Multi-core technology and based on different simulation scenarios...starting from sequantial processing,.......Piple lining processing strategy. so that i can differentiate the time delay between those types of processing based on (Using 1 processor then dual-core processor Computers)
    my question is: As i read through Ni's white papers i saw many notes refer to Real-time execution trace toolkit to investigate the (processing-time , etc) of multi-core processors in processing diffenent algorithms. My algorithms are to be run on 1 computer with dual-core processor BUT, not in real time environments, that is ( No hardware to be connected to my pc) only algorithms running on my pc....
    So, is it possible to use Real time execution trace toolkit  or anyother tools in LabVIEW to show processing-delays and/or anyother timing critical issues without using my application for  real- time hardware.???
    in other words: how to use Real time execution trace toolkit  in non-hardware and/or real-time scenarios???
    please help me in this.
    Any suggestion, comments, feedback.....is absolutely highly appreciated
    thanks a lot in advance
    Labview Lover

    Hey,
    The Realtime Execution Trace Toolkit only works for NI RT Targets.
    But you can use the Desktop Execution Trace Toolkit, just search for it under ni.com.

  • H67MA-E45 doesn't start with dual memory channel

    I have just bought an H67MA-E45 motherboard and a brand  new intel i5-2300 processor.
    The pc works fine with a DDR3 1333 memory module on slot DIMM1 (as suggested in the manual),
    but does not seem to work with dual memory channel at all.
    When I install two same memory modules on DIMM1 and DIMM3 (dual channel configuration), I get the following problem: When I power on the computer, it turns on and instantly turns off. Then it powers on again on its own, but does nothing else. I get no beep error codes and the display doesn't show anything.
    I use he on-board display adapter and I have only a sata II hard disk connected, nothing else.
    Any suggestion what the problem might be?
    Is there a way to check if there is a problem with the second memory channel?

    Every time I power the computer on, I get three short beeps, the third one is of slightly different tone. However, the manual does not have the beep codes written down, nor can I find them somewhere for the EFI BIOS (E7678IMS V1.2). Is there any link for the beep codes?
    I tried mounting a single memory slot (KINGSTON KVR1333D3N9K2/2G DDR3 (1X2GB) PC10666 1333MHZ ) on DIMM 3 slot, for the second channel to work on its own. When I powered the computer on, I got the same problem, as if both slots DIMM 1 and DIMM 3 were populated. The mainboard turned on (without any beep code or display on screen) only to instantly turn off. Every while (about every four seconds) it tries to power on again on its own, without any intervention, but instantly turn off again. It may manage to stay turned on at one of the following iterations, without giving any beep code, displaying or loading anything.
