Has there been an update for the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2048 MB for MacPro3.1 primo 2008?
I have had the MacPro restarts due to internal problems and the fault report going to Apple shows it is the N NVIDIA GeForce GTX creates the problems.
I am running Apple products like Aperture 3.5.1 iTunes 11 etc…
Besides the cresting the overall performance is SLOW

Dear Ms. Andersen:
Evga handles GeForce GTX 680 MX. Apple has nothing to do with it. However, I can try to help you a little bit
go here for Evga's Mac support: http://www.evga.com/support/download/default.aspx
This is one of those video cards that needs 2 power cables connected to the mother board for it to work propertly. It needs 195 watts of power, which  the PCI-E slot will not provide on its own. If you have the power cables connected up okay, then the only advice I can give you is to telephone EVGA and see about a possible replacement.  Apple's policy, as I understand it, is to replace same with same, even if you have the money and are willing to pay extra. This is a 3rd party video card and as such, Apple is not responsible for any problems wth it.  I don't understand either: based on my knowledge of Norwegian,  your screen size is 1280x800 and your bit depth  is 32 bit, and you have 2 gigs Vram, so you should have no problem.
maybe you have a bad card
good luck to you

  • NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX GPU support for the Mac

    When are you going to support GPU for the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX on the Mac in the new After Effects CC?
    Please also consider this a request as well.

    > When do you think us ATi Radeon card users will get a versionof AE that will use our GPU
    After Effects already uses ATI/AMD cards for GPU features, and has for years. The single exception is one feature: the GPU acceleration for the ray-traced 3D renderer.

  • My fan starts after shutdown why? iMac 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2048 MB

    Every tine I shutdown my iMac a fan at the rear starts up.  It is very noisy and only stops after I unplug.  When I plug power back in the fan starts again and stops after I power up the machine.  Can Aany one help please.

    Here are the proper specs for your model iMac.
    32 GB
    Memory Slots
    4 - 204-pin PC3-12800 (1600 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
    Nnot sure where you are located! but forget using Amazon and go right to the Crucial Memory site and use their memory selector to make sure you get the right memory.
    Depemding on where you are from Crucial has four international web locations.
    Also, I believe OWC (macsales.com) has international shipping and they have a few international resellers of the their RAM, too! You can call them toll free or by email to find out where to purchase their RAM, also.

  • NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2 gigs ram,  will it work with Mercury playback Engine for accelerate

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2 gigs ram,  will it work with adobe Mercury playback Engine for accelerated rendering for Premeire Pro cs6?

    I am a PC guy but, I have 6 work stations with CS6 but the wife wants a Mac so I am getting her an imac with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2 gigs ram. Do you think this video card in the mac will still be able to utilize the Adobe CS6 MPE?
    It's not formally supported by Adobe for GPU acceleration; however judging from the fact that the lesser GTX-650M is (with 6.02 update), and the end-user ability to enable support for unsupported cards in Adobe apps, it should work.

  • After effects and  NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 2048 MB

    I've installed the  NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 2048 MB on a Mac Pro 3,2 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon running OSX 10.9.4 but it seems AE doesn't take advantage of the new hardware and the CUDA technology. The ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024 MB mounted before, went for the same rendering times. Am I missing any setting in the software or isn't the graphic card the perfect choice for fastening my rendering processes?
    Ae obviously recognize the Nvidia and the CUDA settings should be ok....
    Any Idea?
    Andrea

    AE only takes advantage of CUDA for ray traced features, which is being phased out. To get the most out of your render times, invest in processing power and RAM. I upgraded to the Titan Black and noticed hardly any difference in my render times. Check out this response given by AE's Todd Kopriva on Sept 24, 2014 at Creative Cow: CUDA does not accelerate : Adobe After Effects

    New to the iMac and apple

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    If you aren't going to use your Mac for anything special (Final Cut, Aperture, Photoshop, games...), you don't need that graphic card and you will save money.
    Also, as it looks like you are going to buy the 27-inch iMac, I recommend you to buy the Mac with 8 GB of memory, and then, buy the memory that your iMac needs in OWC or Crucial (the iMac supports 32 GB of RAM) > http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/iMac/2012_27/DDR3L
    Doing this, you will save a lot of money. Also, it won't void the warranty of the Mac. If you need help installing the RAM, see > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5540

  • Does the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M with 4GB really make a difference

    I just bought 27inch late 2012 imac. 3.4ghz i7 32gb ram NVIDIA 680MX 2gb and Im currious does the 780M 4gb really make a difference. I do not play any games. I do have 2 27 lightening bolt displays. I do alot of video editing and photograph. I have all Adobe Products and Apple software but i cannot find any where that the GTX 780m with 4gb will be any better. All I can find is if you play games then 4gb is good.
    Any advice would be great!
    Thank you in advance,

    Certain applications such as Photoshop or Final Cut Pro will benefit from the higher video ram, however the GTX 680M is a very powerful card and the 2GB of ram that it comes with should be more than sufficient for most tasks.
    Only extremely large files/projects will truly benefit from having the 4GB or ram that the GTX 780M supplies.
    The 2013 iMac offers a performance boost over the 2012 version, however the increases in terms of CPU/GPU power are mostly modest.
    The Haswell architecture was designed with mobile use as the primary focus and so areas such as energy usage were the priority.
    The Nvidia 7XX graphics cards run on the same Kepler architecture as the 6XX cards, as with the Intel CPU the improvements are there but there is not a huge leap forward.

  • Does the NVIDIA GeForce GTX Titan X work with the newest AE CC version?

    Hello
    I would like to know if I can use the GeForce GTX Titan X for the newest AE CC version? On the system requirements Page (2014) for ray-traced 3D renderer, the GTX Titan is mentioned, but not the Titan X. Is the Titan X also working? Who can help me.
    I would like to run it on a HP z640 (Windows) Computer.
    THX for all the help.
    Tom

    Sorry for my earlier typo. I meant the Porsche 918 Spyder.
    To determine when to use the Titan X, use a rough rule of thumb like this formula:
    MIN (N, 1.5) x (physical cores/CPU) x (clock speed), where N is the number of CPU's.
    Your example with dual E5-2643v3 results in: 1.5 x 6 x 3.4 = 30.6
    With dual E5-2697v3, the result is: 1.5 x 14 x 2.6 = 54.6
    WIth a single i7-5960, overclocked to 4.5, the result is: 1 x 8 x 4.5 = 36
    When the result is < 40, it is highly doubtful the Titan X can be used to full potential, when the result is between 40 - 50, it may occasionally be used to full potential, when the result is > 50, it is very likely to be a very good choice.
    This statement assumes that memory is at least 64 GB and the disk setup is very fast on all volumes with transfer rates in excess of 800 MB/s.

  • Is the nvidia geforce gtx 860m compatible to latest premiere?

    is it compatible to gpu acceleration?

    Absolutely if it has at least 1 GB of dedicated video RAM, you will  have to help it become available as it is not current listed in the tested file (cuda_supported_cards.txt) that is in CC 2014.  All you have to do is either delete the file or add it to it.  There are many versions of this GPU so the performance depends on what you really have.  Some version have 1152 cores or some have only 640.  Clock speeds vary and amounts of VRAM also.  So your question cannot be answered without a lot more detail but in general I would say yes.  I looked at several laptops that all would work..

  • Updating drivers for Nvidia Geforce GTX 460m in Qosmio X505-Q896

    I have been trying to update the GTX 460m driver from ver. 259.12 to the newest version 260.99. This newer driver is needed to make an older video game(Final Fantasy 11) playable. It has been available on Nvidia's site for some time now but is still not available on Toshiba's site for some reason. Simply downloading from the Nvidia website and running the file gets me this message "The graphics driver could not find compatible graphics hardware". It got me scratching my head because this model laptop has that specific graphics card.
    I called Toshiba support and they told me that because the kind of GTX 460m in this computer is specifically made for Toshiba the driver update is not supported. That doesn't make any sense to me.  Why wouldn't a driver specifically made for the Nvidia Geforce GTX 460m not be compatible with a Nvidia Geforce GTX 460m?
    This was in the notes on the driver download page from Nvidia. "Notebooks supporting Hybrid Power technology with Intel chipsets are not supported by this release." Could this be the problem? I have no idea if this laptop has Hybrid power or intel chipsets. It also downloaded the file into international instead of the english folder. I am at my wits end. I just want to play a game.
    Is there a way around this ?
    I put another post similiar to this one in the driver forum but didn't really get any help. I am hoping for a little more exposure and that's why this is in the general forums.

    ShawnWiseman,
    This is a known issue with Nvidia GPUs - not just the Qosmio.
    Go here:
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/w​indows_7-hardware/display-driver-stopped-respondin​...
    I have a Qosmio X505-Q870 and can tell you that the stuff discussed at the link I provided did NOT resolve my issue.
    It will, however, give you some background and leave you with the conclusion that 'you are not alone' with the problem.
    I have seen posts around the web that suggest re-applying thermal paste to the CPU and GPU along with cleaning the cooling fans will resolve this issue.
    I have also seen posts stating that the GPU will have to be replaced . . .
    Take your pick!
    I believe it IS heat-related . . .
    What I did was remove the bottom covers from my machine and sit it on top of a Coolermaster NotePal X3 laptop cooler and it resolved the issue . . .
    Good Luck!

  • Nvidia GeForce GTX 485M GPU - Anyone Used It?

    I'm about to pull the trigger on a new Sager laptop for CS5.5 MC.
    I have the options for the Nvidia GeForce GTX 485M GPU with 2GB GDDR5 Video Memory, or the Nvidia Quadro FX 3800M Graphics with 1GB DDR3 Video Memory. The difference is ~ US$500, and pays for a bunch of other options.
    Unless it has just been updated, the GTX 485M is not directly supported for hardware MPE, but I assume that by applying the hack for that card, it should work. Does anyone have experience with that less-expensive card?
    My old workstation (soon to be replaced too), has a Quadro FX-4500, which has been a stout card for years, however was crazy expensive, and I never have really put it to the test, considering what I do.
    If I have to go with the FX 3800M, then so be it, but I'd rather buy more toys.
    Thanks for your observations and thoughts,
    Hunt
    PS - I know that Sager's biggest market is the gaming world, but it is getting harder to get a top-level laptop without SLI for dual-nVidia cards/chips, or Crossfire for the ATI/AMD. As soon as I take delivery, Adobe will probably announce that PrPro NOW fully supports SLI, but I'll live with it.

    Hey, it would not be the first time, that I was the "new kid on the block," with something, but not lately...
    Will probably go with it, and then run the Benchmark, just to get it listed. The Quadros are nice, BUT not sure that the laptop would really benefit from one, and especially to the tune of + US $ 500.
    Thanks,
    Hunt
