What is currently the best NVIDIA driver for a 560GTX-Ti Twin Frozr II OC ?

Hi, first time poster and noob here. Was just wondering, I've been reading complaints in some forums regarding poor performance (freezing, overheating etc.) of factory overclocked Nvidia cards when using the newest official drivers (280 onwards). Is there a specific driver currently recommended for my card?

The 280.XX drivers did cause problems with 560 TI cards. Not all were affected but the NVidia forum had a host of reported issues with those drivers. A lot of them were solved by reverting to the 275.33
Glad it works for you. 
In general don't change drivers unless a specific issue is being addressed by the driver.

  • What is currently the best hard drive upgrade for 2009 white mac book? (within reason! ;-) ) looking at Seagate momentus 7200 320gb and momentus XT

    hello people of the Apple community.
    There seems to be a lot of threads regarding some similar issues. Some of the questions seem a few years old so I thought I'd post a new thread. I have a white 2009 macbook and I need to upgrade the hard drive to I think 320gb - cant afford any more. Im looking for a good 320gb fast-ish drive.
    A few questions arise as Im not 100% clued up with the terminology
    1) Is sata 300 of any benefit? how do i check what mine currently uses?
    2) Cache size and spindle speed: is 16mb the standard? and does 7200rpm drain the battery quicker? what do most people go for?
    3) Pleeeese someone recommend something good! The more you look the more numbers and options come available!
    Im looking at the Seagate momentus range .. Is the XT range of any benefit on my machine?
    Thanks, Jeremy

    If I may, it seems uneconomical to spend any amount of $$ to upgrade a "long in the tooth" Macbook. Instead, why not a huge (say 1 TB) external drive for $100.00? And move some of the files from the internal to the external. It will require some "house keeping" to decide what files go where, but this could free up a lot space on the internal, and therefore boost performance as well. And when the long in the tooth finally dies, you will still have the external.

  • What's the best Hard Drive for TM? USB or FIrewire?

    What's the best Hard Drive for TM? USB 2.0 or FIrewire 400 or 800?
    Any recommendations would be great. Need about 1TB.

    The most recent is 1TB, and cost about the same as the previous one which was 500GB. The first d2 was only a little cheaper and was 60GB!
    Same experience here! They keep the price about the same but you get double the storage, so the price of storage has been going down big time! But now I find myself ******* after Drobo Hey, that editor whacked me for "l u s t i n g" that isn't foul language is it?

  • What is the best external drive for Macbook Pro?

    Migration Assistant is not moving files from my Macbook OS X 10.5.8 to My new Macbook Pro just purchased. Apple Support suggested I transfer thru an external drive. They suggested a 1 TB. They said it would be sufficient for migration and afterward for back up and storage of media and pics. What would be the best one for this purpose?
    Thank You

    Go to OWC and purchase a drive and an enclosure. Put it together yourself. Takes about five minutes and a screwdriver. Or you can purchase one already complete from them if you prefer.

  • What is the Best Hard Drive for a Powerbook Pismo 200 and best size for sto

    I have a Power book G3 Pismo 2000 which came with a 10 GB Hard Drive. It is almost full and I want to upgrade the Hard drive to a bigger and I do not know the best hard drive and what is the maximum space I will need? Can you recommend size and Manufacture?

    I bought a 80GB Toshiba for my Pismo. It seems to work well. I believe the largest drive that will be fully recognized is a 120GB drive.
    Here's a good place to see your options. Go to this web page at OWC and get a listing of your upgrade options for your Mac model.

    You can get the product models and specs, and shop around, but OWC has pretty good prices.

  • Whats the best portable drive for use with iMovie?

    I use iMovie on my macbook on my long commute to and from work. I have read that the best solution is to edit movies on an external drive and not the one on the mac.
    What is the minimum drive speed (rpm) and minimum transfer (firewire 400 ? usb 2?) for this to work.
    All the drives on the online apple store talk about transfering documents, photos and using them as backup devices and I am trying to be cautious about what I buy given a limited budget.
    For example is the "Iomega 160GB Portable Hard Drive with Dual Interface" suitable ?
    All advice gratefully received, thanks

    I haven't seen that point.
    I worked on my old iMac using just the hard drive for a while. Performance is not the issue, but space can be, which is why I moved to an external drive.
    Drive performance is complicated. If you have enough memory, your internal drive will probably have better performance than an external drive. The SATA bus is a lot faster than the FireWire or USB buses.
    On the other hand, if you are memory constrained and are using other i/o intensive applications at the same time, the external may perform better. You definitely want to avoid excessive swapping of your virtual memory while using iMovie or anything else. (and this is best handled by having sufficient RAM. I have 2GB.
    In iMovie 08, once you have your video imported into an event, you can edit away, because iMovie is just writing pointers in the project file to the source files in the EVENT. Disk performance is more critical on import (front end) and sharing or rendering (back-end), but internal drives are more than up to this task.
    Space is the issue. If you are shooting high definition footage, you can get event files of 20GB to 40GB+. That can eat up a laptop real quick.

  • What is the best external drive for my MBP using Bootcamp

    Here is what I would like to do.
    I have the latest MBP (5/2008) and I am using bootcamp with vista. I use my mac side and my vista side of the partition equally.
    I am finding it annoying that I am running out of drive space on both side of my computer.
    I am looking for an external drive that I can use with both vista and OS X. Do they exist? I am guessing any drive can be formated to work with one or the other but can any drive work with both at the same time?
    Ideally the drive would be a wifi drive and I can save off all my music and pictures to the external drive and it would be able to stream the music back to my notebook on either side of bootcamp.
    I would also like to plug the drive in and use it as an external drive when editing with final cut.
    I would also like to use the drive wirelessly for backups with OS X time machine.
    Is this asking too much from an external drive?
    What type of drives work well with OS X/ FCP and video storage? Does it have to be firewire or can it be USB2.0?
    Thanks for any help. I am asking because the 1TB apple time capsule is too expensive and will not work with vista.

    Edit Update:
    When I saw wireless-ly all I am really looking for is an drive that can also be used as a networked drive. The drive itself does not need wifi (might be nice) I just want to be able to be able to keep the drive away from my laptop (most of the time) and plug it into my router so it will show up as a networked drive for both all my computers on my home network.
    Thanks for any suggestion

  • What would be the best tablet/notebook for Photoshop CS4 or Photoshop Elements 10

    When we travel, I love to work with my pictures to create hard bound book pages as we go.  I have wanted a tablet/notebook that I can use a stylis pen to mark my selections but have no idea where to start.  I need a pretty powerful machine because some of my projects get rather large.   Size isn't so much a problem unless someone recommends the new Dell that is a bit too small.  That one is just too small and my eyesight isn't what it used to be.   Any suggestions would be very welcome.  We already have a laptop but I really want something that I can draw on the tablet to make my many layer selections.    I'm not all an expert when it comes to hardware.  I use both Elements 10 and CS4 on my Windows 7 64 bit machine and use them both but would probably only load Elements 10 on any new device I buy.  It's just easier and for what I'm doing, it's the best solution.

    I had a Wacom tablet that I used with my PC and really didn't like it.  I would much rather had an image on the tablet that I could draw around........and even though one of those exists, it's way out of my price range.   What I'm looking for is a larger version of the Dell Inspiron Duo (1090) 10.1" display 1366/768 touch screen convertible tablet.    It's easy to go from regular mode to touch screen mode by flipping the screen.   This one however has a screen that's just too small for me to use and the keyboard is way to tiny for my big hands.  I know I can call Dell and find out what they recommend but I had thought that some photoshop users had already encountered this and might just have an answer.
    As for the iPad, I have one of those and it's great for apps but not at all for playing around with photoshop or any of my other graphic packages.  I use it to grab my mail at wi-fi sites while we're on cruises where it doesn't cost an arm and leg for using the connection.   The price of a cup of coffee usually gets us enough time to download all of our mail and then head out touring.
    Thanks for taking the time to respond.

  • What would be the best network setup for me?

    I am planning a network system for my medical practise. The network will comprise a Macbook Pro(myself) , an Imac(receptionist) and a Macbook for occassional admin use.
    I need some advice as to the best way to store the shared data. I will be using Filemaker Pro and will be storing patient appointments, demographics as well as clinical info, visit notes and investigations.
    I am considering 3 possible setups
    Have shared database on the Imac, backed up by a 500 gigabyte hard disk, or possibly a time capsule, using Time machine.
    Have an ethernet hard disk for storage, but then I probably would need to have a different backup system.
    Use a mac mini as a file server.
    Or use an altogether different setup.
    I would appreciate suggestions.
    Thank you
    ajdk

    Hi ajdk-
    Then it comes down to your morals and how carefully you want or need to protect patient confidentiality. Your basic network concept should work.
    As a start, storing any patient data with regular business data and emails is asking for a security breach.
    Make sure to back up your back ups and store said backup securely in a media-rated fire proof vault.

  • What is the best optical drive for MacPro (early 2008) ?

    I am having my MacPro optical drive repaired but I wish to add a new one in the second bay.
    I have come to know that the Apple Store does not sell it separetely and do not know what to buy.
    Suggestions?
    Thank you.

    Mac Pro 3,1 also has two extra SATA ports, easy enough to run a cable from one or both of them to the optical drive bays. But if you want to use the connectors that are already in the optical drive bays get one of these:
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007589%2060000370 5&IsNodeId=1&name=IDE
    Or get a SATA drive. I put a Blue Ray drive in so I can burn data to those, I have an LG
    WH12LS38 that was plug and play (I think I had to order a SATA cable for it).

  • What's the best Hard Drive for my iPad 4?

  • I was wondering what is currently the best antivirus, best internet security suite and best malware, spyware programs?

    I know that some believe we don't it, other do. So what is the truth?

    If you have a problem with malware, it is because you gave the malware permission to run.
    Like KT said, all you really need is the current version of OS X, and a grain of common sense.
    Don't fall for web pages that tell you you NEED to install their software to be safe.

  • With 2008 - What would be the 'best practice' approach for giving a principal access to system views

    I want to setup a job that runs a few select statements from several system management views such as those listed below.  Its basically going to gather various metrics about the server, a few different databases and jobs.
    msdb.dbo.sysjobs
    msdb.dbo.sysjobhistory
    sys.dm_db_missing_index_groups
    sys.dm_db_missing_index_group_stats
    sys.dm_db_missing_index_details
    sys.databases
    sys.dm_exec_query_stats
    sys.dm_exec_sql_text
    sys.dm_exec_query_plan
    dbo.sysfiles
    sys.indexes
    sys.objects
    So, there a number of instance-level permissions that are needed, mainly VIEW SERVER STATE
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms186717.aspx
    Granting these permissions to a single login seems like introducing a maintenance headache for later.  What about a server role?
    Correct me if Im wrong, but this is a new feature of 2012 and above, the ability to create user-defined server roles.
    Prior to version 2012, I will just have to settle for granting these instance-level permissions to individual logins.  There wont be many logins that need this kind of permissions, but id rather assign them at a role level then add logins to that role.
     Then again, there is little point in creating a seperate role if there is only 1...and maybe 2 logins that might need this role?
    New for 2012
    http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2699/sql-server-user-defined-server-roles/

    Just as any Active Directory Administrator will tell you you should indeed stick to the rule - "user in role- permissions to role" - in AD terms "A-G/DL-P. And since this is very much possible since SQL Server 2012 why not just do that. You
    lose nothing if you don't ever change that one single user. In the end you would only expect roles to have permissions and save some time when searching for permission problems.
    i.e.
    USE [master]
    GO
    CREATE SERVER ROLE [role_ServerMonitorUsers]
    GO
    GRANT VIEW SERVER STATE TO [role_ServerMonitorUsers]
    GO
    ALTER SERVER ROLE [role_ServerMonitorUsers]
    ADD MEMBER [Bob]
    GO
    In security standardization is just as much key as in administration in general. So even if it does not really matter, it may matter in the long run. :)
