Seeking input regarding video card contribution to performance

I have the option of moving from a single Nvida graphics card 9600GT to a SLI combination dual card GTS 240 with 1 Gb memory in each card.
I understand this configuration is more appropriate for gaming, it would seem that the additional card performance would contribute to the performance of the editing platform.  I used Premier CS4 exclusively.
I am fortunate enough to also be in a position to acquire a GTX 280 single card capable of SLI but I will only be able to use the single card.  It too as 1Gb of memory but tremendous graphical power over the GTS 240 but again, since these cards are primarily aimed at the high end gaming appllications, would the performance increase not provide a benefit to me in Premier Pro and when transcoding?
Much thanks for input

Absolute waste of money. You will not notice any performance improvement.
The only thing that may help during encoding is when you ONLY encode to H.264 AND get a $ 1700 nVidia CX card. Price/perfomance wise your best option is either to keep your 9600 or get an ATI HD4890 card. The performance gain will be small, so the first option, keeping the 9600, seems the best.

  • 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.

  • Video Cards with Standard DP & HDMI Ports

    Since the NVIDEA 120 and ATI 4870 both have mini-DisplayPorts, they require an <adapter> to use with any monitor other than Apple's 24" LED (correct me if I am wrong); and, since use of the adapter does not allow <audio> pass thru . . .
    I am looking for a Video Card (with comparable performance) which uses a <Standard size DP and HDMI port> in order to directly connect to other monitors of my choice (without using an adapter).
    Does anyone have recommendations, or corrections of what I describe?
    bob

    USE THE ADAPTER...Go with the ATI 4870

  • Photoshop CC stopped recognizing my video card.  Photoshop CC(64) still recognizes it properly. Video card driver is up to date.

    ON or about January 15th my Photoshop CC (original) which I use because it works with many of my older filters was working properly. Several days later it refused to recognize my video card and my performance plummeted. ( It has the performance tab greyed out. )
    It keeps popping up a message saying I am out of VRAM. Then when I try using filters like Liquify I get his message.
    When I use Photoshop 64bit it correctly finds and uses my video card
    How do I make Photoshop CC correctly find my video card?

    First, try updating your video card driver from NVidia's website.

  • M57 video card/power supply options

    ***Note: I have read virtually every post regarding video cards for this PC, and with this newer BIOS, I thought it best to see if things have changed after newest BIOS update***
       About 2 weeks ago, I bought a SFF M57-6072 at a large internet store. I bought the PC for my wife, who may watch a movie, or play a couple of FPS games (Far Cry is probably the most video intensive game).
        I was delighted at the price, and the fact it had a PCI-E slot. I knew I was pushing the limit of the 280W power supply, but I tried to install a Radeon HD 6450 (which does not require additional power). I could not get the card to work, so I was back to looking at options.
        I upped the memory to 4gig, and flashed the BIOS to the latest (2RKT64BUS dated 1-8-14). and for giggles, tried the HD 6450 again, with no joy. I was a little miffed that the only note for the latest BIOS is "improve boot time". That seems rather cheesy to me, and it's almost impossible to find out what the prior BIOS updates may have fixed.
       Another problem is, I'm having a lot of difficulty finding out if the stock 280W PS is a standard, or a proprietary PS, and only replaceable by certain types. If I can, I'll switch the motherboard out to a larger case, and use a 500W or better PS, and hopefully would gain the chance at using my HD 6450. Again, I'm running into a brick wall trying to figure out if it may or may not work. While I realize this was a workstation PC, I still have problems understanding why so few video cards would be compatible.. so here I am.
       If you have tried and failed with a video on this PC, please note it here (not only for myself, but future readers of this forum). If you know that my moving the motherboard to a larger case is doable, please let me know.. as I have 3 more video cards that I can test, but they are not low profile. If I get to that stage, I will post those cards and the results. Just FYI, the cards I have yet to try are:
        BFG 9800 GTX+
        Radeon X700
        Geforce GT 460
    Thanks

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Update 26 May 14:
    I installed the Galaxy GT 610 with no issues. I tested the computer for about 2 hours with heavy usage to see if the PS could hold the load. Since the GT 610 only has a small fan, and no external power is needed, I had no issues with BSOD or otherwise.
    I ran FutureMarks3DMark Vantage and 3DMark11 and received scores of P1907 and P588. Mostly stuttering on the tests (they are HEAVY benchmark tests), I was really trying to see if the system would hold in and not fold (BSOD). No failures.
    I installed Far Cry, and tested it starting with minimum specs, then wound up using HIGH settings for everything across the board, and it runs smooth. No rippling/tearing, stutters or video anomolies. I was so surprised, I thought.. hmm.. CRYSIS!?!  Unfortunately, I couldn't read the disk and will have to replace my DVDrom before going that far. I will post my results for Crysis after getting my DVD situation fixed.
    My updated settings are:
    Intel Core 2 Duo Processor E6550
    HD: Sandisk 128G SSD
    Memory: 4.00 GB Dual-Channel DDR2
    Video: Galaxy GT 610

  • Photoshop cs5-no video card detected in GPU settings

    Running photoshop cs5 on a new iMac 27in with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 775M video card.  Under performance preferences GPU settings is not detecting the card.  What do i need to fix??

    Same issue here.
    Running the same system here with the Geforce GTX 775m. Currently running OS 10.9.5.  Photoshop CC 2014 shows no GPU detected under Preferences and all video card related options are disabled.  I've tried installing nVidia's web driver, but it's not compatible, unfortunately.  The 10.9.5 update hasn't helped either and I haven't found any further driver update from Apple.
    Is there a way to force detection or manually specify video card specs?

  • Mouse Lag and poor performance. Video Card or Power?

    Not specifically a FCP question but related. I recently purchased a new rig. Here are the specs.
    2 X 2.93Ghz 6 Core/16GB RAM/ ATI Radeon 5870 video card.
    I am having very odd mouse lag problems that are quite annoying. I am also having issues with playing sequences in unlimited RT. A guy in our office can play back better with an quad core. In regards to the mouse problem I have tried several different mouse and keyboard issues including a Wacom tablet and I get the same poor results.
    Some people say it could be my video card and some say it could be a dirty power issue. I took the rig back to the store and the tech geek in the back said it worked fine for him but when I showed up with the keyboard and mouse to test it he had boxed up the computer and gone home.
    Here is a clip of the screen and the weird jumpy jittery problem I am having.
    http://pdvpro.com/stupid_mac/
    You can see the mouse and the window I am dragging freeze for a second even though I am mousing smoothly and continuously. The mouse and keyboard and Wacom tablet work perfectly on my old Dual Core.
    Any ideas?

    According to your video, it's happening in Finder, not just FCP,
    so it must be something systemwide.
    Is there something running in the background, like Spotlight indexing?
    System Preferences > Spotlight > Privacy add your disks to be excluded.
    Anything else running in the background?
    Anything weird connected to your USB?
    Also turn off your Airport or any network connection and repeat the test.

  • The 3d features require 'use graphics processor' is enabled in the performance preferences.  Your video card must meet the minimum requirements and you may need to check that your driver is working correctly

  • Performance Problems with GeForce FX 5600 256mb Video Card

    I recently purchased the GeForce FX 5600 VTD 256mb video card to replace my old ATi Radeon 8500 64mb card.  I'm running an AMD 2800XP+ on an MSI K7N2 Delta-L, with 1gb of PC 2100 on Windows XP Pro.
    I installed the latest drivers (from the EGA site) and ran 3DMark 2001 SE.  My score for the old card (a 64mb card) was about 9200.  My score for the new 256mb card is only 8700.  My roommate has a GeForce 4 TI4600 128mb video card.  We put his card in my computer, and I scored 11117.  According to PCStats.com, the FX 5600 128mb version scored about 11000.
    I've tried everything I can think of to ensure my video card is working properly,  but I still get low scores.  I don't know if I'm missing something somwhere, but there has to be a way to get more performance out of the video card.  Can anyone help me out here?

    Yeah, I've ran the driver cleaner after changing each driver.  And I've tried several drivers with the new card.  I've even changed the clock settings a bit, which has helped bring the scores up to around 9000.  Still way off from the GeForce 4 or the 128mb version of the 5600.

  • Video Card performance issue

    Hi,
    I've notified a bug regarding the switch between the dedicated and integrated video card in my Mac. Assume that the Intel HD is used. Do CMD + SHIFT + 4 (this is the shortcut to make a screenshoot). The cursor is blinking when I move it. Do the same but assure that the dedicated video card is used: the cursor does not blinking. Do you have the same behavior ?
    Thanks.

    If the MacBook's iPhoto Library hasn't been upgraded by v.11, yes. Do you still have the installer for iPhoto 09? If you do, then delete the iPhoto application, it's associated preference files and the upgraded Library. Install 09, move the Library from the MacBook and then launch iPhoto 09.

  • Aperture Video Card Performance Ratings

    Does anybody know of a good summary that would include all of the cards that Aperture can use, and some measure of performance or speed, similar to Rob Galbraith’s CF card speed ratings?
    I’m having a hard time remembering which card does better (and how much) with Aperture. I know that I can't change the graphics card in my iMac, but I'd like to understand this topic for future reference, as I do plan to buy a new iMac or Mac Pro someday.
    I tried to search for this info on this site, but I wasn't able to find such a summary.

    Well, new Mac Pro's came early.
    The question is what kind of Aperture performance can we expect with the different video cards. The Nvidia 8800GT has a 3-5 week lead time. I don't want to wait unless it'll be worth it. I don't think I'd benefit from a faster card for the other apps I use (Adobe CS3 mainly), but I spend a lot of time in Aperture.
    Interestingly, there is a glitch in the Apple Store where draft copy was used to describe the video cards. It mentions that the ATI 3870 was planned:

  • Does aperture require a dedicated video card? If not a requirement? does it improve the performance of aperture?

    Does aperture require a dedicated video card? If not a requirement? does it improve the performance of aperture?

    Aperture can work with integrated video, but the consensus here is that Aperture is fairly demanding when it comes to graphics cards, as it relies on them for various processes. So, if you have the option to get a machine with a dedicated video chipset, do so.

  • New Video Cards- Motion Performance

    Anyone have any early insight on the new video cards and their expected performance with motion? Do you guys think the nVidia will out perform the ATI? As I recall, in the last batch the x1900 was the strongest for Motion.
    Here are the new available build options for Mac Pros:
    ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256MB (Two dual-link DVI)
    2 x ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256MB [Add $150]
    NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT 512MB (Two dual-link DVI) [Add $200]
    3 x ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256MB [Add $300]
    4 x ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256MB [Add $450]
    NVIDIA Quadro FX 5600 1.5GB (Stereo 3D, two dual-link DVI) [Add $2850]

    Some offline discussions and various lists of high end users indicate "no one knows yet." The new systems have not been tested by experienced users who can offer opinions I would trust. I'd certainly not rely on Apple's promises or claims. Give the motion graphics and video worlds a few months to play with them.
    We also have no definitive answer to "Will any of these new cards work in older Intel Macs?" There is already uncertainty whether the newer form factor cards will work in the older form PCI slots. The mfrs a[[ear to suggest they will.

  • I want to use Final Cut Pro v 10 on my MacBook Pro and need advice with ram, video card or HD upgrade for optimal performance.

    I currently have 8GB ram and the stock video card and an ssd HD 240 GB.

    what Russ said…
    ext.HDD, for simple AVCHD tasks, I would recommend usb3 too…
    It's not state of the art hardware, but it's not chopped liver either.
    LOL Thank, you, Russ for phrase-of-the-day!

  • Video card performance

    Hi all; I'm not a gamer, nor am I graphic artist. For surfing and viewing video (youtube, movies, etc)what advantage over the geforce5200 is there for me to spend hundreds of dollars for a geforce7800gs. I currently use a laCie 22" crt monitor.

    Hi...I'm gonna double post this here, now. It's my situation.
    Meanwhile, I'll check out all the links provided in the thread.
    If this triggers any thoughts or ideas, that would be cool.

    I'm doing a trial of Photoshop CS4 Extended and it says: "Some GPU-accelerated features require graphics support for Shader Model 3.0 and OpenGL 2.0."
    My PowerPC G5, Duel 2.3 with the standard ATI Radeon 9600 does not, apparently, have this - since I get a warning message from Photoshop about it.
    I have PCI-X slots. I ventured into the topic of video and/or graphic cards before and came away very frustrated and confused, not knowing what year various card were made, not knowing which ones were for PCI, PCI-X or PCI-express, or which ones for Intel only, etc. not to mention trying to discover the specific fact of if it supports Shader Model 3.0 and OpenGL 2.0
    Other then this ONE thing, my computer functions carefree and complete and does everything I want. But now I want to try my hand at mading mods.
    If all else fails, I suppose, I'll get one of the new Mac mini's -- since I have, uh...have the keyboard, mouse and video displays. So, is there any big improvement I can make for under $599.00?
    Um...does the Mac mini or Macbook video card support for Shader Model 3.0 and OpenGL 2.0
    I'm definitely over my head here, lost in some 3d virtual unreality I can't sort out, 4sure.
    Any help?
