HT4664 What is the best graphics card for FCPX?

In the nonstop anti-FCPX propaganda is an article of interest — posted 7/9/12 — comparing the benchmarks of FCPX and PP6.
http://www.streamingmedia.com/Producer/Articles/ReadArticle.aspx?ArticleID=83582 &PageNum=1
The system used was a 2 x 2.93 GHz Quad-Core Mac Pro from early 2009 running MacOS X version 10.7.4 with 12 GB of RAM and an NVIDIA Quadro FX 4800 graphics card with 1.5 GB of onboard RAM.
In most cases PP6 outperformed FCPX with this configuration. However, in the comments Ben Balser pointed out that FCP X's A/VFoundation engine wasn't ideal on the NVIDA card:
"Quadro is actually not the best card for FCP X's A/VFoundation engine, but great for CS6's Mercury engine, so the test is amazingly flawed right there. Try both on a 5780 card and watch things drastically change. I've done that test myself. Exporting to Compressor uses a MUCH more sophisticated encoding engine meant for higher level, professional transcoding, not simple outputs, which are faster using Export Media…"
Apple lists this card on its support page: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4664
So,
What is the best graphics card for FCPX?

Ben,
Thanks for chiming in on that article. It would be good to have a benchmark comparison with the two systems each with a preferred card.
I'm hoping to see some other comparisons on this thread. Also, some links to other articles about best practices and configurations.

What's the best graphics card without upgrading PSU?

I know the K430 JU has a wimpy 280 watt power supply. I don't want to go through hassle of replacing the PSU, due to I won't be able to have the front lights or the top speed shifter working.
However, I might be interested in getting a better graphics card. Considering the power supply, what's the best graphics card I could use that wouldn't make the system overheat?

Go here and enter your system details, followed by adding in a graphics card in the range you might like.
If the wattage is too high, keep decreasing the card specs until you get something that falls in the range of 200-240W.
After this, you must check the requirements of the card. Make sure that the +12V rail has enough amperage for your card. My 280W PSU has 18A on +12V.
It would be better if you upgrade the PSU to a good branded one, as it would be more hassle with a new video card that refused to run because of an inadequate power supply.Replacing the PSU is quite straightforward, and will save you a lot of problems in the long run.
The P9 connector is responsible for supplying power to the speedshifter. You could maybe find an adapter, but I'm not sure. By default, turbo is set to AUTO so you shouldn't notice any differences playing in game.

What's the best graphic card for FCP X and a Mac Pro (early) 2008?

I have a Radeon HD 3870 in my Mac Pro, it seems that I cannot use this configuration with Final Cut Pro X. Then what's the best graphic card for FCP X usable in a Mac Pro (early) 2008?
Thx,
Phil

You can get a 5770 radeon ATI MAC card
Avoid the 5770 cards on ebay and Amazon - many are black market or manipulated cards.
Buy it from Apple online store or B&H photo or Macconection
And in my case, I was able to sell my old 2600 XT card on ebay for $65 and put that money toward a 5770 card (Which was about $230 minus the $65)
I installed the 5770 in my early Mac Pro 2 x 2.8 and it works great

What is the best graphics card for me

i have a G5 dual 2.0Mhz (not intel).
i upgraded to an ati radeon 9800 with 256M of memory and performance did improve over my 9800 with 128M of memory. however, i am still experiencing some slow downs that i suspect are graphics-related. what is the BEST option for me?

Absolutely agree with Mike. My X800 is wonderful. I never really did A/B tests with the original 9600 but Aperture is very pleasant with the X800.

What is the best graphics card compatible with the original Mac Pro?

I have an original Mac Pro with dual 2.0GHz DC Xeons. It currently has a GeForce 7300. I would like to know the best Apple graphics card it can support, and the best "flashed" PC graphics card it can support. I would like to be able to play games, but it doesn't have to be on BEST settings. What are the best GPUs that are compatible with Mac Pro 1,1?
Thanks!!

You may have to work at getting the ATI HD5870 to work with a Rev 1.1 MacPro, but the 5770 should be fine. It's not as good a card as the 5870, but much faster than your original, and also a lot cheaper than the 5870! That said, neither is particularly cheap.
If you're techno savvy, you can have a much bigger choice, and can use a generic PC card and 'flash' it to work with the Mac. If you use Snow Leopard or Lion, you may get it to work straight off, as they have drivers that work on many of the PC cards.

What's the best graphic card i can update my 1.8Ghz G5 to?

Any advice on the best graphic card i could update too (AGP x8 slot i think)? I've had a hard time finding out my available wattage on my power supply (not listed in About This Mac menu). The ATI Radeon X1900 looks good but i can't find any compatability sites for my Mac. I'm thinking around the $200-300 dollar range. I need something to help me get by while i save up for a new mac next year...I need to be able to run all the latest Final Cut & Motion apps. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks.

Best graphic card for your model is the nVidia Geforce 6800 Ultra DDL which is plenty fast for Aperture and Motion and can support two 30" displays.
Second best option is the ATI X800 XT for Power Mac G5 and the 6800 Ultra GT model - both of these can drive only one 30" display.
Forget about the ATI 9600 XT and 9800 XT. I've upgraded from the ATI 9600 to the Geforce 6800 Ultra and I'm glad to have even found one on the market. My scrolling and viewing thru large photos don't lag and I don't have to wait for things to be rendered.
With the price point you are budgeting, I doubt you will find one on the market. I ordered from We Love Macs an ATI X800 two weeks ago and they led me to believe they had one in stock when I spoke to a person. Then when my order went thru I was told they only have it on order and cannot tell me exactly when. In fact I also have on order until now from JR.com another X800 for months already and all they do is just say my order is delayed.
I gave up and bought from eBay instead. The way these cards are even available for our extinct model, I doubt they will produce more.
The cards above are getting rare and unless they find a boatload hiding somewhere all along they will never go down in price. So if you keep holding off like I did, all I saw was prices going up.
eBay has one on sale right now for the Geforce 6800 Ultra DDL for USD400. With only one on sale, I don't think it will last long at that price. When that's gone, you can go the WeLoveMacs route for the same card which they are selling for USD799.95.

What is the best Graphic Card Option for me?

I have a first generation Quad Core Mac Pro with a Radeon X1900XT with dual DVI Connections for my two older Apple 24" LCD Displays. I want the best card to run Adobe CS5 and support dual DVI for my 2 monitors. I was told maybe the ATI 4870 or 5770. What would be the best card for CS5 and Final Cut Studio?

300 dollars.. 250 for the backplane board(661-5706), and for the single processor tray(661-5707) - your price may vary.. I got mine for 50 dollars.
so, for 300 dollars.. you can make your 2009 mac pro into a 2010.. and yes, you can use the same existing processors.. the good news is that 1333 mhz memory works with the following processors in the new board: W3570, W3580(High end 3.33 2009 mac pro quad which was 1400.00 extra as a configure to order on apple's store from a 2.66 quad-core at 2499.99), and finally the W3680.
I am running still my w3580 with now 8GB of DDR3 1333 mhz memory.. it was 1066, but i got 1333 for a great price..
If you want to know more information about this, please send me a private email.
I can help you if you want..
Please note: if you have the 4870 HD Apple version, and not pc flashed, the sensor reading is too high for the 2010's firmware... you will need the GT120 or the 5770 graphics card.. 5870 is not going to be available for sometime and there is rumor from AMD themselves stating the card might be EOL..

What is the best design tablet with stylus to have an easy interface with Adobe Photoshop?

What is best design tablet with stylus for use with Adobe Photoshop for this holiday seasons offering 2013?
I am trying to find a tablet with good stylus to work with Adobe Design products primarily Photoshop. I would like one that worked in layers with photoshop.
The folks a Wacom don't even answer the phone just a recorded message go to the web site with questions. Not a good sign for a company. So what is a good design tablets for pressure sensitive stylus? Will wacom cintiq tablet interface well with Apple Imac IOS 10.8?
I love my Samsung note 3 but it will not easily transfer images to apple Imac 10.8.
Please help me find tablets with good adobe design interface? Just tell me which way to jump. It is easier to leave Apple for PC or Android than to abandon Adobe knowledge. The products have to work together.
Does wacom Cintiq not embrace an easy interface with Apple Imac IOS 10.8 latest software. Wacom seems to be championing Windows 8 as a companion to their tablet interface.
Can an Ipad deliver good layered designs using adobe software design programs and a stylus?
What should I buy for an Adobe design tablet with pressure sensitive stylus for ths Holiday Season?
Should i wait until next year?
Will the tablet work in Photoshop layers?

To be honest, I don't understand how the Linux bonding mode can work without anything configured the other end.
My understanding of 'bonding' comes from Multilink PPP (MLP) where the data stream is chopped up and split across two (or more) circuits. At the other end, a similar MLP-enabled device reforms the data stream from the multiple circuits, maintaining packet order. But this requires MLP-enabled 'bonding' devices at each end.
Perhaps you could help me better understand the Linux bonding...

If the firewalls operate in the same fashion as Cisco ASAs, then the inter-firewall link doesn't carry traffic. It's for failover detection and HTTP replication only. But like I said, I'm not familiar with this vendor's products.

What is the Best Graphics Card for G4 Gigabit Ethernet?

Hi, i use my trusty g4 dual 450 at the moment and i cant help but feel sorry for it.
I think it could do with a bit more ZING
I was looking though some of the graphics card upgrades avalable and i want to make sure i get the best
that i can get for it. I thought the ATI Radeon 9800 pro with 128mb vram was the best i could do but lately
i found better ones that would supposedly work with it.
Can anybody help out a die-hard G4 fan and say whats the best my mac can handle?
Oh yea, I want to see if i can manage to play minecraft well/desently on my mac
and i have my eyes on some 1.6 ghz and 1.8 ghz processors on ebay to help do this, think its a good idea?

What is the best graphics card for my Powermac G5

Hello every1 @ discussions.apple.com!
I am thinking about upgrading my Graphics card. Currently I have a radeon 9600 in My powermac G5 (early 2005 2.3 ghz dual), it works fine but its a bit slow and drops frames on anything HD. I have been looking around and the best card that i will not need to flash/format to work would probably be a NVIDIA GeForce 6800 GT DDL (I really dont want to have to flash the card as it seems like a slightly complicated process and i would like to keep within all the manufacturers warranties).My main goal is to obtain the best card possible for HD video editing or viewing. I was wondering if there where any superior cards available for my mac that would serve those purposes better.
Many thanks in advance.
All the best.
Dc

The performance differences vary by software in use.
Some software runs better with a Geforce, other with a Radeon.
The Radeon cards will do better with games, but the Geforce will likely do better with 3D and pro apps.
http://www.barefeats.com/radx800.html
As far as viewing HD, any one of the cards will give additional horsepower.
I use a Geforce 6800 GT and a Radeon X800 and I don't see any difference between the two with regard to handling video.
Of course, the two cards do much better than the Radeon 9800 series or other offerings OEM.
After that, it's all up to the CPU, free space on the boot drive and RAM.
Oh, yes, one other benefit of the Geforce is two DVI ports.
The OEM Radeon cards each have one ADC, one DVI.

Best for what? If you like to do video/games, yes. If you only do some e-mail/chat/internet, then it's overkill.

What are the best graphics available for the Macbook Pro 13"

I am 13 years old and I am looking at a Macbook Pro.
I am between the 15" and 13". The only thing stopping me from going straight to the 13" is the graphics. I hear they aren't that good. Is there anyway to get the graphics from the 15" and 17" or just any graphics that are better than the 13" ones"?
I will be using it mainly for movies and games, but i am not a huge gamer and I dont expext the very best.

Thanks
But the reason i like the 13" better is because i find the 15" to big for my liking.
Are the graphics that bad? Will i notice it?

What is the best graphics card that can fit in the hp p7-1003w?

The card that came with my CPU. the ATI Radeon HD 4200 is too weak to run the demanding games such as Arma 2, so I need a good graphics card that would fit and balance my motherboard, so the videocard and the graphics card could keep up with one another.
This question was solved.

CHHeinrich, welcome to the forum.
Before you can upgrade the video, you will have to upgrade the power supply unit (PSU). The existing PSU is only 250W. The newer mid-level video cards require a minimum of 400W to run properly. I normally recommend at least 500W. This will allow for some future upgrades. I like Corsair and OCZ PSU's. Here is a PSU that will work. I suggest measuring the existing PSU and comparing the measurements to the one that you choose.
Now, you can't use integrated video when a dedicated video card is installed. So, you don't have to worry about one keeping up with the other. I like XFX, EVGA, Sapphire and PNY in that order. Here is a video card that should give you a good performance boost. You should stay under 9" in length to assure that the card fits into the space provided. Always read the Customer Reviews on any products that you buy to see what the users have to say about them.
If you decide not to go with my recommendations, these two components will give you a good idea of what you need.

The ATI should be more powerful, but not by too much. However, the ATI card consumes more power than the Intel. The choice depends on how necessary graphical power is to you.
