Upgrade Graphics Card to Open CL

Have a Mac Pro early 2008 w/ ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT's - Need Open CL for FCPX can mine be upgraded? What should I buy?

The apple version of the ATI Radeon 5770 will work in your machine so long as you are using 10.6.4 or greater.
For reference see some of the google hits for "5770 in 2008 mac pro".

    Hi:
    Unfortunately in most of today's notebooks (including yours), the graphics cannot be upgraded.
    I looked at the service manual for your notebook, and there aren't even any other motherboards with better graphics available.
    You can try the latest drivers from AMD to see if that helps, any but you can't do anything with the hardware.

    Hi:
    Graphics adapters cannot be upgraded simply. 
    You would need to replace the motherboard with one that would have better graphics (if one exists for your model).
    This would cost as much as buying a new notebook, so it is probably not a good idea to undertake such an endeavor.

  • What upgrade graphic card do i need for a early 2008 mac pro

    I have a early 2008 Mac Pro.  ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256 MB is what i have now.  What is a good upgrade graphic card to get.

    The GTX 780 6GB runs fine on the dual PCIe internal power cables -- as does the GTX 680 and Radeon HD 7950. The same can't be said of the GTX TITAN or GTX 780 Ti or Radeon R9 280X -- all of which require an auxiliary power feed to avoid a nasty power down of your tower at the worst moment when too much wattage is demanded of the Mac Pro's factory power supply.
    Did I mention that the GTX 780 with 6GB of GDDR5 matches the 6GB of GDDR5 in the TITAN?
    The one fallacy to my 'sweet spot' award has to do with OpenCL. In case you hadn't noticed, the AMD Radeon GPUs smoked the NVIDIA GeForce GPUs running Photoshop's OpenCL accelerated Iris Blur filter and rendering LuxMark's OpenCL accelerated Room scene.
    - http://www.barefeats.com
    So depends on budget, whether you want a PC card for less but no "early EFI boot screen" prior to drivers loading, and what apps and needs you have.
    The one thing for sure is that 2600XT should have been retired ages ago and even more so with 10.8.3 and above, it could be trouble or just... PITA/POS.

  • Upgrading graphic card on HP DC 8300 CMT

    Dear HP,
    I try to upgrade graphic card, on HP DC 8300 CMT (Intel® Core™ i7-3770 Processor, Intel HD Graphics 4000 )
    with Nvidia Asus GeForce GTX 650 Ti.
    As stock power supply doesnt meet requirements, I installed an additional  FSP Group Booster X5 450W.
    Once I turn PC on, it reboots 3 times, and eventually it continues to use onboard graphic and windows 7 loads as usual .
    like if new graphic card is not present. (not detected by windows)
    Bios version is latest and particular option  for disableing integrated graphic is grayed out- not accessible.
    Is there any explanation why this happens ?
    On DC 8100 sff It automaticaly disabled onboard graphic, altough it was low consumption Radeon HD 7750 Low Profile card, and there was no any problem.
    Regards.

  • Upgrading graphics card & power supply in a new P6674y

    I just purchased a new Hp 6674y computer and wanted to upgrade the video card.  Reading here on the forums I got some good ideas for video cards for comparable computers to mine and also found out the power supply is going to need to be upgraded also.  My question is, can anyone tell me if there is a specific size, type or model of power supply that my particular model MUST use?  Or can I get a "standard" ATX 12v 600w or so, and replace it.  Also will an EVGA Nvidia GTX 460 graphics card fit into this case?  Thanks in advance for the help!

    Hi,
    A standard size ATX will fit.  I am using the GTX 460 1 GB in one of my PCs (e9280t) which has nearly the same cabinet as your PC.  I bought a Corsair HX 650 but there are other choices.

  • Upgrading Graphics Card on T400 Laptop?

    Hi,
    I'm just wondering if it is possible to upgrade the Graphics Card on my T400 Laptop. I opened up Device Manager, went to Display Adapters, and it's a pretty weak (so I hear) Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family. I would like to upgrade this, because of many different reasons. (One of which includes sometimes having my computer "black out" for a second, then say that some sort of display thing has failed but recovered, and images/videos loading slow, etc..., as well as the main problem of whenever I load something that is graphics heavy, whether it be some imaging assignment or a video game, I hear my computer working extra-hard and a "clicking" noise comes from my computer I think, and I feel like it's because my graphics card is not "good" enough, and I might as well upgrade it if possible).
    So yeah, I was just wondering if it is possible to upgrade the Graphics Card on my T400 Lenovo Laptop, and where to buy a new one (if possible).
    Thanks!

    'evening.
    there's no "graphics card", per se, in your machine. it's all surface-mount soldered to the planar. even in the case of models that feature switchable graphics, the discrete gpu is soldered (vs socketed) to the planar. so, there's no upgrading that way, sorry.

  • Upgrading graphics card of m8530f

    I am looking to upgrade my graphics card and power supply in order to play Final Fantasy XIV and need some suggestions.  Doesn't have to be top of the line but a bit better than minimum recommendations.  The FFXIV Graphics Card Matrix is located [url=http://www.ffxivcore.com/wiki/Graphics_Card_Matrix]here for reference.[/url]

    I would suggest that you not chose an ATI 5xxx video card as there have been posts stating the the user could not get the  card to work.
    Look at the NVIDIA GTX 460 1GB with 256 bit data path.  You'll need a 500-500 watt PSU to support the video card.

  • Problem with upgrading Graphics Card from GTX 635 to GTX 960

    Greetings,
    I'm new to upgrading hardware in computers but have decided that I wanted to upgrade my graphics card in my HP Envy 700 - 329 (Nvidia GTX 635) to an Nvidia GTX 635. The only problem is I have never opened a computer and have no idea what cable to put where or how to take my old Graphics Card out to put my new one in, and I'm very worried because I might mess up.  Is there any video tutorial/ guide out there that is convinient to my desktop for me to upgrade?
    Thanks,
    Marwan
    P.S. Is the space in the Envy 700-329 large enough for the GTX 960?

    Hi there 
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums! It is a great place to find the help you need, both from other users, HP experts and other support personnel. I understand that you are looking at upgrading your internal video adapter from a Nvidia GTX 635 to a Nvidia GTX 690. I am happy to help with this. FIrst thing, you must be aware of before you buy any video adapter upgrade, is the power requirements of the card, the recommended minimum output for the computer's power supply,  the size of the card, the required expansion slot type, and the type of power connectors that must be available for the card from your system power supply. Starting with a comparison of the card you have with the one you are thinking to install:GeForce GT 635 (OEM) Specifications - www.geforce.comBus Support - PCI-E 3.0 Height 2.731 inchesLength 5.70 inchesslotWidth SingleMaximum Graphics Card Power (W)  35W GeForce GTX 690 Specifications - www.geforce.comBus Support - PCI Express 3.0Height 4.776 inchesLength 11.0 inchesslotWidth Dual-slotMaximum Graphics Card Power (W)               300WMinimum System Power Requirement (W) 650WSupplementary Power Connectors                Two 8-pin Your computer has the following:
    Power Supply Internal Total wattage: 460W  - too lowDimensions: 150mm x 140mm x 86mm (5.9 x 5.5 x 3.4 inches) I have highlighted the items you will need to be aware of in red, before trying to install this card. Because the stock power supply is 460W, it will also need to be replaced, because the card requires that your power supply meet a minimum output of 650W, and that power supply needs to also have two 8-pin supplementary power connectors. I included the dimensions of your current power supply so you have a guide to the type of space you have and form of the power supply to help with finding something that will fit in that space. Also I highlighted the fact that the card you are looking at is significantly larger in all dimensions, so you can make sure it will fit inside the case or have an idea of what cabling may need to be moved, and because it is a dual-slot width, it may block another slot on your main board. Because of all of these issues you may want to consider talking to a local computer tech or a tech savvy friend to help you with this, and maybe save some money as well. I did not include the instructions on how to replace the card itself, because of the other issues, which you will need to check on first. I hope this helps, or does not confuse the matter more, but reading your post I realized you were probably not aware of these little roadblocks.

  • Pavilion p6-2185ef - PC won't boot when upgrading graphic card

    Hello,
    I recently tried to upgrade my graphic card to a 760GTX (I also upgraded the power supply)
    When I try to boot my computer with the new graphic card (all powered up including those pci express slots), everything is going OK, until the boot get stuck to the screen where I can press escape to access the bios.
    And from there, I can't do anything. The PC won't boot any further, and I can't even access the BIOS when pressing escape (which usually works).
    Since I don't reach the OS booting part, I don't think this comes from windows.
    I tried to disable the PCI security in the BIOS, but then it seems that the displays is switch to the motherboard (even when I use the former graphic card (which still works fine)
    I tried to upgrade the BIOS, it changed nothing.
    I'm welcome to any suggestions on how to solve this issue.

    Hi,
    The NVIDIA GTX 760 will not work in a PC with a version 7 BIOS.
    Open up the Run window and enter: MSINFO32
    Verify your BIOS level.  It should be a version 7 BIOS.
    There are some specific MSI NVIDIA GTX models that should work.

  • Upgrade Graphics card in MacBook Pro 15" 2.2GHz Early 2011

    Hi,
    I'm new to the forums so please don't comment saying that this has already been posted.
    Anyway, I Have a MacBook Pro 15" 2.2GHz Early 2011 and would like to play games using Dolphin. I have been using Dolphin for about 3 months but I have to scale my resolution down to 720p for it to run smoothly. So I was wondering if I could upgrade my graphics card to something that could support this on a 1440 by 900 or at least a 1280 by 800.
    Edit: Due do other answers, I now realise that it is not possible to change the graphics card but is there any other way of making it fast enough.
            Thanks again.
    Thanks in advance,

    Hi Aaron, Two kinds of people in the world, Tool users and tool builders. In this case, the prior responses to the question presume to know you, they are in a context that stereotype the entire reading audience as only able to consume a shrink wrapped utter non tech end user answer.
    Responses fail to ask before they answer follow up questions. They fail to set any boundaries of what you or the audience would consider acceptable and worse pass off (with scorn for your asking it) your question as either foolish or as factually materially not technologically possible.
    When in reality, it’s just is not your question which is in error, it appears to be the experience of or the presuming of the posters which have limited the material factual discussion of options.
    No one asked you if your goal was to get it done with a technicians help or to purchase a completed finished end user installable bits and make it work yourself. No one asked if you had some, none, extensive or access to technicians who do soldering.
    The three respondent’s are likely correct in guessing, most people (in general) can't go buy and solder if their lives depended on it.  However what the posters did, almost appears intended to confuse or conflate the experience with soldering with it with not being possible, rational, reasonable or desirable.
    I don’t know you or the other posters, but I value the question and you more than to dismiss it by answering conveniently based on my assumptions about you.
    So out of the box thinking is required, to counter the dismissive one liners .."its soldered in, suck it up and buy new".
    Please consider http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technological_evolution
    Soldering irons have been around for over 4,000 years. Up until the late 1800s they were all heated by open flame or burning coals.
    1894
    The American Electrical Heater Company of Detroit Michigan begins manufacturing electric soldering irons. Shortly after the American Beauty® line of soldering irons appears.
    1921
    Ernst Sachs (Germany) claims to have developed the first electric soldering iron for industry (see note below) and ERSA begins commercial production of a 200 watt electric soldering iron.  [More Details]
    Note: I have found an advertisement from 1898 in an issue of "The Electrical Engineer" Vol. XXIV showing a drawing and description of the American Electrical Heater Company's electric soldering iron which pre dates Ernst Sachs electric soldering iron by 23 years.
    1926
    In December of 1926 William Alferink files for a U.S. patent for a "Combined Holder and Automatic Circuit Breaker for Electric Soldering Irons" (first soldering station?). On July third, 1928 the patent is granted.
    1946
    Carl E. Weller is granted a patent for his instant heat soldering gun and starts production as the Weller Manufacturing Company in Easton Pennsylvania where he manufactures the first "Speedy Iron" instant heat soldering gun.
    1949
    The American Beauty "Temperature Regulating Stands" are sold to control the temperature of electric soldering irons.
    1951
    WEN Products is founded and manufacturers their own instant heat soldering iron.
    1954
    Weller sues WEN Products over soldering gun patent infringement.
    Court finds in Weller's favor. [More Details]
    1960
    Weller is granted a patent for the "Magnastat" soldering iron which controls the iron's temperature through the use of a temperature sensitive magnetic tip.
    1967
    Weller begins manufacturing it's W-TCP soldering station with a "Magnastat" iron.
    1970
    Weller Manufacturing Company is sold to Cooper Industries.
    Reference: http://www.stevenjohnson.com/soldering/history.htm
    So the actual fundamental concern is not soldering, soldering has been around for a while, finding a technician is not the issue. Then the issue would seem to me to be, "will a card fit"?
    If the card fits, it can be soldered in. That’s the bottom line. An expert might take an hour to solder it, An expert might charge $90 - $250 an hour. A person with more than a little experience will appear as an expert to you. Ask for and check references, BBB to reduce your learning curve. Establish a maximum price, Establish criteria with your expert that make it acceptable to agree in advance in writing to only pay a fixed max amount on successful completion.
    Does anyone have a reference of it being done?
    Does anyone know a contact company that would take the job?
    Does anyone know specific parts (have a URL?) that should or are known to work?
    Milestones
    – Feasibility confirmation
    – Locate engineering soldering expertise
    – Return here and post your experience.
    Notes:
    If Apple had Nvidia reduce or reshape the display card specifically to fit the MacBook Pro you’re out of luck however if the MBP card was not customized by Apple then any modern mobile Nvidia board may work if you can find a tech to solder it in.
    If Apple changed the already small mobile card form to custom fit the MBP then you’re going to have no luck.
      Glad to clear that up for everyone with some material relevant facts for the adults

    Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    Try one of the below MSI specific model graphics cards.  They may or may not work in your PC but if they do then it's about the best that you can do without also replacing the power supply. These cards come with a switch to allow the card to work with legacy and UEFI mode BIOS PCs.  Know what the return policy is before your PC.
