Tips for a CS4 compatible graphic card?

Hi! Time to build a new machine. One of the things that use to mess up is the choice of graphic card. I always pic the wrong one, it seems. It would be great for any tip. The machine is going to be a Asus P6T Deluxe with Intel i7 processor and 6 or 12 Gb Kingston DDR3 HyperX 1600MHz memmory. The OS is XP or Vista, it depents. I expect that it still not possible to use more than 4 Gb RAM. I still pic a lot of RAM because I hope for the next windows to solve this...

AE isn't really picky (and OpenGL in AE isn't really that critical, it works fine, and sometimes even better, without.)
It used to be that Nvidia cards had better drivers than ATI, but recently Nvidia's drivers have been causing a lot of problems on many systems so that's not such an easy recommendation to make anymore.
I'd avoid the 8800 cards as they have been known to cause the GUI in CS3 to become really slow, something that only occurs on some systems which makes it really hard to track down.
Unless you know you'll be using OpenGL in other programs than AE, I'd get a reasonably priced consumer card. I have the stock 7300 GS that came with my Mac Pro and it works fine even though it's slower than almost anything you can buy today. I occasionally use OpenGL in AE and always in Cinema 4D without a problem, so don't over-spend unless you are doing heavy OpenGL stuff in non-AE programs.

    I am trying to upgrade my graphics card.  I recently purchased a  Zotac GeForce GTX 760 AMP Edition 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 DVI HDMI DisplayPort SLI Ready Graphics ...  .  I also installed the above mentioned power supply.  I installed both and when I went to start the computer, I got the HP logo blue screen with a message saying to press ESC key for start up menu, however the keyboard was unresponsive.   I updated the bios to this using this link  http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=cp-114777-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...
    The hp logo screen changed but that was about it.  Using the new card, I could get to the first boot screen, and to the hp logo, but then it would stay stuck on the hp logo.  Also if I tried to press f10, ctrl + f or any key, I would just get a black screen and nothing would happen.  I've read that this seems to be a common problem with the HPE models and the 700 series cards and have seen no solution.  I have already arranged to return the card figuring it's either defective or not compatible with my system.
    So after all that, I've tried for the last hour to get a list of compatible graphics cards to upgrade my system, and have not found such a list.  I've found lists in the forums for other similar models, but I want to be absolutly sure before I make another purchase and have to go through all this trouble.  
    Any help would be appreciated and if more info is needed don't hesitate to let me know. 

    Hi,
    There are graphics card solutions posted on this forum. They may be hard ro find but they are psoted.  It's good that you checked the BIOS settings in the posted HP links as sometimes they get changed thinking that this will work better. However,  in the case for Windows 7 it's just the opposite.
    You issue is not a driver problem. Check with the graphics card manufacturer for a remedy. If that particular card is video BIOS enabled for UEFI then you are stuck. You can either return the card or install Windows 8 in UEFI mode.
    Another choice would be to try one of the below video cards that run in legacy or UEFI mode.

  • Angelica compatible graphic cards

    Does anyone have a list or know  what graphic cards that are compatible with M3970AM-HP(Angelica)?  I'm currently using Asus Radeon HD 7770 Ghz card and Corsair CX600M PSU.  I already know the R series and 700 series and up are not compatible.  I want upgrade to HD 7800 or 7900 series card.

    Hi,
    There isn't a list of compatible graphics cards other than what HP may have for the "configure-to-order" models using the same motherboard and BIOS levels.
    What BIOS level is your PC running?  It must be version 7 or the NVIDIA 7xx models would have worked.
    I suggest that you consider the following graphics cards that will work with a 300 watt power supply. Look for models that do not require an auxillary 6 pin power connector.
    MSI NVIDIA GTX N750 TI and the MSI GTX N750 TF . Be sure to get the exact model.
    ZOTAC also has a NVIDIA 750 model and this NVIDIA 750 model that are compatible back to PCI-E version 1.1. All of Zotac's NVIDIA 750 models are advertised as backwards compatible to 1.1.
    The reality is that there is no a guarantee that any particular graphics card will work in any particular PC even if the graphics card works in other PCs or even the same or similar model PCs.  Know what the return policy is before you buy.

  • What temperatures are acceptable for the CPU and Graphics card?

    I have Intel Xeon X5400 series CPUs and a Nvidia graphics card.  
    It is interesting to monitor the temperatures but only if you know what temps matter...
    What temperatures are acceptable for the CPU and Graphics card? 
    I was not sure if this is the document of choice for the CPU or not. I was not sure I was decifering it correctly either. 
    http://download.intel.com/design/xeon/datashts/318589.pdf
    Any one know what we should be watching for as far as what is too hot? 
    I have a ThinkStation D10.
    Did not see this in the user manual but could have missed it. 

    I found my specs:
    Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU           E5405  @ 2.00GHz
    You are correct. An E series. 
    I was so focused on the upgrade to the X5420 that I forgot what the system came with. 
    So what should I set my sensor high value to on my sensor program that shows up on the panel (taskbar)?
    For the E5405 or the X5420? 
    SIDE NOTE: where can I get 2 E5420s or better cheap? 
    Not ready to give up my filters just yet. I live in a dust factory! 
    My girl friend sews really nice bags but creates sewing dust and fuzz. 
    And well there are natural fibers everywhere...
    So other than the the X5492 (150watts),  the X5482, X5472,  X5470, X5460, X5450 are all 120 watts.
    Like the bulk of the X series...
    The E5405, E5410, E5450, E5440, E5420, E5430, E5470, E5462, E5472 are all 80 watts.
    The L series seems to all be 50 Watts.

  • Compatible graphics cards for old G5s

    I have one of the original G5 Dual Core Macs, introduced durring the summer of 2003. Does anyone know what graphics cards are compatible with this machine that are 128mb and above? Preferrably still available somehow...

    I also have one of the original Dual G5s from october 2003 and my Radeon 9600 is dying a horrible death and I am utterly disappointed that I cannot find a replacement anywhere. Especially from Apple, of all companies.
    ATI's backlog on the 9600 and 9800 are 40+ days and of course the x800 is discontinued totally.
    I can't wait possibly 6 weeks for a video card rom anywhere? ROHS ***** but!!!!!!

  • Compatible graphics cards for my motherboad?

    Hi guys
    I would really appreciate it if someone would tell me what graphics cards I can upgrade to on my PC.
    Right now I have intergrated graphics, and would like to remove that one and put in a dedicated graphics card instead.
    Also I would like to do this because my x32 version of Windows isn't showing the full 4GB of RAM I just installed and is instead showing 3.49GB of RAM.  (Before I added the two extra RAM cards I had 1.99GB of RAM). And yes all 4 RAM cards are installed in Dual Channel mode. The Bios shows that I currently have 4096MB of RAM, but Windows shows 3.49GB. Anyway,  I'm certain the left over RAM is being allocated to the integrated graphics. I know x32 OS won't make use of the entire RAM installed, but I'm just wondering if this can be fixed if I just remove the on board graphics and replace it with a dedicated one that uses it's own memory?
    If that won't get my x32 Windows to show that I have 4.00GB of RAM like it says in my bios screen, then I understand, since it is a x32 OS anyway, but I would still like to know if a dedicated graphics card would fix this.
    If it can't fix the RAM issue, then I will just like to change my onboard graphics card to a dedicated one either way. But I would like to know what graphics cards are compatible with my motherboard. I will leave my PC specs and motherboard specs below.
    PS: My intergrated graphics card is a PCI card. I would prefer a 'much better' dedicated PCI graphics card. The reason for this is because I only have just 1 PCI-e x16 slot and that is being used by my Asus Wifi card. So PCI graphics cards only guys.
    Thanks
    My PC specs: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00705316&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&cc=us&dlc=en...

    The motherboard RAM issue is moot.  It is a given, all 32bit computers have about 3.3 - 3.6 GB of RAM available when you install 4GB's.  There's no spiriting away of RAM to the video, in most cases.  What you see is really what's there.  OK???
    Your request of a PCI graphics card leaves little choice for a maximum situation/remedy.  This card does have a slight hurdle. It's going to need an adapter to get the video to your VGA monitor (guessing).  The DMS output cable provided is a dual DVI-I output. You still need a DVI-I to VGA adapter on one of the two output lends.
    Although you've got a 300W PSU (likely rated at 235W sustained), the card adds 19W.   You might get away with it, but the manufacturer implies a 400W PSU per their website.
    Someone might offer a rebuttal to the PCIEx16 slot for a wi-fi card, let me remark it's good choice:
     The 82945G/82945GC/82945P/82945PL (G)MCH processor contains one 16-lane (x16) PCI Express port intended for an external PCI Express graphics card. The PCI Express port is compliant to the PCI Express* Base Specification, Revision 1.0a.   This is what your computer has, 1.0a        http://www.intel.com/Assets/PDF/datasheet/307502.pdf
    Overall motherboards designed for v2.0 will work with the other being v1.1 or v1.0a.
    PCI Express 2.1 supports a large proportion of the management, support, and troubleshooting systems planned for full implementation in PCI Express 3.0. However, the speed is the same as PCI Express 2.0. Unfortunately, the increase in power from the slot breaks backward compatibility between PCI Express 2.1 cards and some older motherboards with 1.0/1.0a, but most motherboards with PCI Express 1.1 connectors are provided with a BIOS update by their manufacturers through utilities to support backward compatibility of cards with PCIe 2.1.

    Now the real issue is your system.  You do know that WIN XP is now in  non-support mode. It has ended its lifecycle. There will be no MS updates.

  • Compatible graphics cards for AE 6.5

    I currently am running AE 6.5 and need to change Graphics cards but I don't know what is compatible with it.  Does anyone happen to know?  Thanks for any input.

    I teach and have 25 pcs in my lab and with the NJ money problems new pcs
    or software are no longer a possibility.  I just remember when we first
    bought 6.5 there was an issue with some effects and at that time Adobe
    furnished a list of compatible cards.  They no longer have that info and
    the documentation appears to be long gone from here.
    Thanks for your response.

  • Compatible Graphics Card for M9400F???

    I have an HP M9400F Running Windows 7 Pro 64bit.  The computer came with a ATI Radeon HD 3650
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N8​2E16883107730
    I want to run Sony Movie Studio Platinum 12 these are the graphics card requirements
    Supported NVIDIA or AMD GPU:
    NVIDIA
    Requires a CUDA-enabled GPU and driver 270.xx or later.
    GeForce GPUs: GeForce GTX 4xx Series or higher (or GeForce GT 2xx Series or higher with driver 285.62 or later).
    Quadro GPUs: Quadro 600 or higher (or Quadro FX 1700 or higher with driver 285.62 or later).
    NVIDIA recommends NVIDIA Quadro for professional applications and recommends use of the latest boards based on the Fermi architecture.
    AMD/ATI
    Requires an OpenCL-enabled GPU and Catalyst driver 11.7 or later with a Radeon HD 57xx or higher GPU. If using a FirePro GPU, FirePro unified driver 8.85 or later is required.
    What would be my best upgrade option?  Im leaning Quadro 600 or higher but Im at my wits end trying to find what is compatible, whether I need to upgrade the 350w power supply.
    I would like to run dual monitors and have a little more than what I need.  I don't want to have to upgrade again for awhile I guess.
    Would the Quadro 600 be compatible?  That would take me from 512mb gpu to 1gb but a guy at Best Buy said it doesn't pay unless I go up to 2gb which takes me up to Quadro 2000D which is $250 more.  I would do that if it doesn't really pay to even get the 600.
    Sorry Im lost when it comes to this.  Any advice is greatly appreciated

    Quadros and FirePros are business cards, so quite expensive.
    A Geforce GT640 would have 2 Gb too and work with a 350W psu.
    Compare it with a Quadro FX 3700 or 3800 - it's one step before Q2000.

  • Search for a compatible Graphic card

    Hi,
    I had purchased a Desktop (Compaq Presario SR1921IL) in the year 2006.
    Configuration : PD-820(2.8GHz), 160GB SATA HDD, 256MB RAM, DVD Combo Drive, MODEM, FREE DOS.
    It has Ati Radeaon xpress 200 integrated graphic card.
    Later on I upgraded RAM from 256 to 1GB, and OS to Windoxs XP
    I was able 2 play games released before 2005-06 flawlessly but my graphic card (Ati Radeaon xpress 200) didnt support games relaesed after that.
    So now, I want to upgrade the graphic card for gaming purpose.  I understandd that even after updrading there will b limitations and I wont b able 2 play the latest games, still I would like 2 upgrade & push my CPU to the limitations.
    Plsss help me...
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Here are the specs for your Compaq Presario SR1921IL Desktop Computer. Based on the specs, this model should support the use of most v1.0, v1.1, and v2.0 PCIe x16 graphics cards. Examples of these cards can be found HERE. You may wish to stay away from any Radeon HD 5xxx model, as there are reports that these are incompatible with some older HP/Compaq models. You may also need to upgrade the power supply to meet the needs of your new video card depending on what you select.

    Native
    64-bit operating system support, multiprocessor utilization, and 
    OpenGL acceleration help you work faster, taking full advantage of your
    computer's power. Unmatched integration with other Adobe software 
    further streamlines your workflow.
    Of the three things mentioned (64-bit, multiprocessing, and OpenGL), two are hugely important and one is minor.
    > OpenGL—Interactive or OpenGL—Always On
    OpenGL
    mode provides high-quality previews that require less rendering time
    than other playback modes. OpenGL can also be used to speed up rendering
    to final output. OpenGL features in After Effects rely on OpenGL
    features of your video hardware.
    Yep. It can speed things up. Some. And at the expense of fidelity with the CPU renderer. The OpenGL-Interactive mode is the only one that most people use.

    what you're stating, or at least the part about OpenGl not being
    relevant to AE at all.
    I said that "OpenGL is not very relevant at all to After Effects", not that it isn't relevant at all.
    To use a car metaphor: If I wanted a car that went fast, I'd focus on horsepower, low-weight materials, and good tires first. Then, if I'd maxed all of those factors and still had some money left over, I might buy a spoiler for the back. But that wouldn't be my first area of focus.
    Graphics cards can be very expensive. I see far too many people spend all of their budget on this less-important item and neglect the less expensive and more important factors like extra RAM and a second fast hard disk. I'm trying to keep you from making the same mistake.
    BTW, the graphics card is much, much more important for Premiere Pro CS5. But that's a conversation for the Premiere Pro hardware forum.

  • Mac Pro 5,1 (mid 2012) compatible graphic cards

    Hello everyone.
    Which graphic cards are compatible with the Mac Pro 5,1 (mid 2012)?
    It came with an ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024MB but the card presented problem and now need replacing. Its a very hard-to-find model in my city, so might I have other possibilities?
    The thing is: the card is turning the computer off in the middle of an video editing process. The cooler is running very slowly... and it's working only with one monitor, displaying in 2 monitors is not possible anymore...
    Configuration:
    Mac Pro 5,1 (mid 2012)
    2x 2,4hz 6 core Intel Xeon
    32 GB DDR3
    OSX 10.9.4
    Thanks in advance!

    There are more card options if you look around then what is in that tip.
    Check out GeForce GTX 780 6G
    A few apps like FCP-X 10.1+ benefit from dual AMD cards. So depends what you use to edit.
    MacRumors forum, Netkas.org and others can guide you through extra PSU if needed and other concerns using PC cards.
