What G4 AGP graphics card should I use for 20" acrylic display?

I bought a 20" acrylic cinema display on ebay.
I also got the apple DVI to ADC power adapter to hook it up to my G4 350 mhz AGP tower.
When turning on the computer, it would show the gray apple startt-up window with the rotating icon then go black.
Turns out the old ATI Rage 128 Pro card only supports up to 17" displays.
What cards would you suggest to get the 20" display up and running?

Hi-
Welcome to Discussions!
There are a few choices, many hard to find, but you can get the ATI Radeon 9000 or the GeForce2MX at the following:
http://hardcoremac.stores.yahoo.net/memory3.html
Both are 2x/4x AGP, and should work with no problems in your 350AGP tower, and drive the 20" display beautifully.
Note that they are used cards, but new are extremely rare, and carry a high price.

  • What kind of graphics card should i get to run final cut pro x on my 2008 mac pro?

    What kind of graphics card should i get to run final cut pro x on my 2008 mac pro?

    Hello Andres. I own an Early Mac Pro 2008, and have had the blessing of using both FCP X & Motion 5 for some time now. This is a pritty open question and it depends on your usage and the throughput nessesary to handle your work load. I can share what my set up is, & it may help you deside if this is enough power for you or help you move in another direction. Keep in mind that the buss speed and cpu are a big part of helping FCP X more so than the video card, although the video card does come into play here as well. Now if you are wanting to run Motion 5 as well, the video card is Almost Everything, and you need the biggest and best situation here that the throughput on this system will except. I'm running 14 gig of system ram, and the video card is an ATI Radeon 5870. For FCP X, running 1920x1280p footage optimised in pro-res 422, she can move along with some render time nessesary when dropping on the timeline, also filters, transistions, titles ex, have a bit of a laps time to render, but then she runs ok. This wait is not as much of a challenge with this set up as with Motion. I need a much bigger gpu on the video card for this app. Not sure if this computers throughput is really worth the upgrade. Beleive this though, Motion is demanding on using ALL you can give it. It is a Genious App, and it also calls for ALL THE POWER YOU CAN GIVE HER IN A VIDEO CARD. Conclution: if you are just starting which it sounds like, even a smaller video card than this can work For FCP X. Make sure you have at least 8 gig of cpu ram. 12 or more will help here. Also make sure the card is OpenCL compadible.....& this is in the thread above,,,,,,,,

  • What USB 3.0 card should I get for early 2009 Mac Pro so I can connect the Drobo 5D? They say get CalDigit or Sonnet. Anyone have preference or experience with reliability. Trying to find which is better.

    What USB 3.0 card should I get for early 2009 Mac Pro so I can connect the Drobo 5D? They say get CalDigit or Sonnet. Anyone have preference or experience with reliability with this. I am running Lion and Trying to find which is better as I know from experience not all cards are created equal. Thanks in advance for your help!

    High Point RocketU Quad USB 3.0 for Mac is working great for me. Had an issue with CD/DVD Drive which was resolved with most current driver downloaded from the support site.
    Running Moutain Lion on Early 2009, mirroring two Seagate Go Flex 2TB USB 3.0 Drives. Installed in Slot 4.
    Using it primarily with VMWare Fusion for Virtual Drives. Windows, Unbuntu and other OS running really well.
    HPT Support was responsive and very helpfull using the WEB Portal under the product page.
    I have some comments and a suggestion:
    Have you tried your setup with a SD/CF combo card reader (like the Lexar or Kingston FCR-H63)? Does the card appear on the desktop when first plugged in?
    Did you need to fool around with any kind of power issues in installing this card in the x4 PCIe slot of the MacPro?
    Suggestion. Have you tried one of the fixed in this article to cure the BT issues in MacPro 3,1?
    Good luck.

  • What lite client installation i should to use for OraOLEDB.Oracle

    I have code in VBScript and connection opens when i use oracle full installation, but when script is used on another client machine installation should be compact. What I should to use for it? I try ODAC xCopy but when i installed oledb with instant client i got "General run error" when script try to open connection. Also I registed manualy OraOleDB11.dll becouse it not registred by xcopy installation.
    strCon = "Provider=OraOLEDB.Oracle; Data Source=(DESCRIPTION =(ADDRESS_LIST =(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = hostname)(PORT = 1521)))(CONNECT_DATA =(SERVICE_NAME = serviceName)));User Id=userID;Password=passID;"
    Set objCon= CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
    objCon.Open strCon
    msgbox objCon.State

    There are two configsets by default. Configset 1 is
    for synchronization and Configset 0 is used by
    provisioning (again, these are default settings).
    You cannot have two odisrv (Provisioning and Synch)
    with the same instance #.
    So, instance 1 could be Provisioning and instance 2
    could be Synch.
    Have you setup your synchronization mapping files?
    I would suggest you use the DIPTester utility to
    setup the synch. It might also be helpful to post the
    commands and the odisrv* logs (not the full dump, but
    the last snippet).Well I was trying to use ConfigSet 1 for synchronization but it either wouldn't let me because of how it is designed or I had screwed it up at that point since I didn't know what numbers to use for anything and it prevented me from using Set1 because of that. In the end I created a ConfigSet 2 and was able to get another instance of ODISRV running with that. That finally got the sync working on a scheduled basis. I'm now trying to get SSO working between OID and ADS and it seems that OID is too stupid to know that a user exists. I log onto the Windows PC into the domain and attempt to go to http://ssoServer.com:7778/pls/portal and login and I get an authorization denied message.
    I have debugging turned on as much as I can and the defaultIsland log file (forget the full filename but its an OC4J file in $ORACLE_HOME\opmn\logs directory). It says that I was denied access because the user could not be found and yet I see the user in the directory tree and it comes back in a search as well. The krbprinicipalname, uid, and orclcommonprinicipalname (I think that's what it's called) are all the same ([email protected]) and the orclusersearchbase is set to dc=mycompany,dc=com so I don't know why the account can't be found.
    ANy ideas on that issue?

  • What graphics card should I get for video editing?

    I recently purchased a G5 2.3ghz,Canon GL2 camcorder and Final Cut Express HD. Does any one have any suggestions on a good graphics card? I was thinking of buying a radeon 9800pro or would I be better off with the Radeon X800 XT.

    Hi,
    Firstly the card may work properly and the monitor may go to sleep after 1 hr or the power option (even it does not have battery) may turn the screen off after 1 hour. What is the model of your machine actually, for example the following link shows one model (HP TouchSmart 610-1150y):
       http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&​lc=en&docname=c02861058#N155
    Upgrading/replacing video card on AIO machines is relative simpler than on laptops BUT finding the RIGHT card could be very difficult.

    In simple words the problems is that your mainboard is too old and don't have PCI-E slot...
    Read the replies which you have above 1st..
    As mates and MSI Tech as well notified you can't use PCI-E VGAs into your board...
    You need a AGP one, here is examples of VGA's that can use:
    Ati: (few good choices)
    Radeon X1950PRO: http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=proddesc&prod_no=1146&maincat_no=130&cat2_no=137
    RX1650PRO-TD512: http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=proddesc&prod_no=1145&maincat_no=130&cat2_no=137
    Nvidia: http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=prodpage2&maincat_no=130&cat2_no=136&cat3_no=139
    At all you can use any AGP VGA... Just make sure that your PSU is powerfull enough.

  • What type of memory card should I purchase for my iMac (late 2009)?

    I'd like to increase the memory on my computer, as I'm running some pretty hefty programs (Parallels with Quicken, CS6, and some architecture drafting softwares) that really bog down the processing response time. I believe that I have two slots in the back of my machine, to add memory to, but have no clue what to purchase.  I'd love to know what type of memory card I should purchase (or how to find out), in addition to the best place to buy it.
    Thank you for your feedback!
    Specs:
    iMac: 27-inch, late 2009
    Running: OSX Mountain Lion (10.8)
    Processor: 3.06GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory (existing): 4GB 1067MHz DDR3
    Graphics: ATI Radeon HD 4670 256 MB

    Great idea! Thanks.

  • What kind of graphic card do I need for second screen?

    I have a Mac Pro with GTX 680 card that outputs to a 27" Cinema Display and 42" TV. The TV screen is a few frames of, so I understand I need a separate videocard for the TV so I can adjust this with frame offset in FCP.
    What kind of card is suitable for this? There is 30m distance from Mac to TV, is this too long for HDMI cable?

    I don't know.  My experience with Aja IO card is that's it's more complicated configuring it (at least with fcp7).  I have a friend with a macpro and every time we need to use it, it requires playing around with control panel and the view settings within fcp.  Maybe operator error.  The BlackMagic just usually works although I found with Avid Media Composer 7, if you tried to load material that didn't match the project settings, you could not get the project to every play out through the intensity.  You'd have to create a new project and open your existing bins in the new project.  Took me a while to figure out what was going on. 
    Aja's support is supposedly much better, but I did get answers via email from blackmagic with the avid issue.  Took a few days, but they did come thru. 

  • What kind of SD card should I use?

    Just to make sure, could somebody tell me which cards are compatible?

    Thank you! I was using a 64 gig I bought on eBay, and it wouldn't work. I thought it was because it was exFat (you know like it still had to be FAT, not exFAT),  but I believe the card was just defective (the files I copied to it kept disappearing). Well, I am going to be able to return the card, and I just wanted to make sure I was buying the right kind.

  • What file type and codec should I use for creating a file to send to have an HDCAM copy made

    I'm prepping to take a video file of my film into a tape dubbing house to have an HDCAM copy of my project made. I'm using a PC, so Apple ProRes is not an option. What file type, codec, and settings do you recommend?
    I was considering MXF, but the highest quality codec is XDCAM 50, which only does up to 50Mbps (I think). I believe HDCAM works at 140Mbps, so I would rather not give them a file that's compressed to almost 1/3rd that, especially since the source is a 5K 5120x2560 project. DPX maybe? I've never exported DPX before because it's not an option on my copy of CS6 - maybe that has to be downloaded separately? I was considering a Quicktim in H.264 at 140Mbps, but I think that would mean some serious rendering for the tape house. I would like to be able to offer them a few different options and see what they prefer, but this is an area where my knowledge runs thin. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. I'm hoping there's an industry standard that I can stick to.

    DPX maybe? I've never exported DPX before because it's not an option on my copy of CS6 - maybe that has to be downloaded separately?
    Your CS6 'Format' dropdown list should include DPX:
    Among the options you listed, DPX would be my choice.
    Be certain the dupe house can accept these files before proceeding.

  • What kind of screen protector should I use for my iPhone 6? Should I use one?

    I'm looking for a screen protector for my brand new baby. To my dismay, it's hard to find one that "fits" because of the curved edges. I have ocd, not to mention that what isn't covered by a screen protector are usually crucial areas. Can anyone recommend anything? I always use a screen protector because I'm super paranoid. I throw my phone in my purse a lot where I feel like it will come in contact with one too many things that can scratch it. I don't have a ton of money to spend, sorry I'm a college student. Also, I don't like glass protectors. If I need one I'm looking for a film. Thanks in advance from a new iPhone 6 parent!

    I have an iPhone 6 Plus but I thought I would try to help you out!! I use the Zagg Glass Invisible shield and I must say at first I loved it! It feels smooth and accepts input super well! It doesn't, however, go all the way to the edge of the screen which is weird, I agree. I've only had it for about a month now and its already chipped on the top edge by the speaker and its super annoying!! They will replace it for free but I'm not sure that I want another one that chipped so easily.
    I've heard great things about the iloome screen mate and it goes all the way to the edge of the screen and covers the curved part. I know you said you don't like glass protectors but those are the best and if you get a good one you pretty much only need to replace it once a year so you pay a bit more up front but it lasts a lot better than just film ones. Hope that helps!!!!!

  • What is the best card I can use for my MSI K9A2 CF Motherboard

    I have been trying to read some threads, but I cannot find out any info on what would be the best card for my MSI K9a2 CF ver 1 motherboard. I would like to up grade but I don't want to buy a new system.
    I was thinking about the an Nvidia 460GT 768mb
    MSI K9A2 CF motherboard
    AMD Phenom X4 940
    Corsair XMS 6400 4gb
    Corsair 750 watt power supply

    Quote from: scottyb70 on 20-November-10, 23:21:53
    My question is my Corsair has only one 12v rail at 60 amps. The MSI says it requires two. I don't think my powersupply would be able to handle this card?
     That refers to 2 PCIe 6 pin power connectors not +12V rails on the PSU.
     TX750W~PCI-Express Connector, 4 x 6+2-Pin

  • What version of airport utility should I use for my airport express if I'm running Mountain Lion?, What version of airport utility should I use for my airport express if I'm running Mountain Lion?

    I can't configure my airport express because I get a message stating I need to run an older version of airport utility to support itk but when I try and install the older version, I get a message stating it can't be installed because it isn't supported.  Help!

    Unfortunately, Apple did not include support for older AirPort devices in the recent "upgrade" to Mountain Lion. A few conversations with Apple Support indicate that Apple has no plans to change this going forward.
    If you have another Mac there running Lion or Snow Leopard...or even a PC...you can use that device to administer the older AirPort Express.
    If that is not possilble....and you have been using Time Machine for backups of your Mac....you can try to go back in time to locate the earlier version of AirPort Utility and restore it to the desktop. Then, simply move the AirPort Utility application into the Utilites folder and will co-exist with AirPort Utility for Mountain Lion.
    Apple does not support this type of thing of course, so you will be on your own if you want to try an "unsupported" procedure like this.
