What is the best video card I can install if I change the power supply

Right now the processor is i7 2600 which is still pretty fast around 8300 but the video card is a radeon 5770.
I would like to know could I go to a GTX 780 with the right power supply

Hi,
You want to put a Ferrari engine in a Volkswagen and expect to hit top speed?  It's not going to happen.
You need to size the hardware with your application requirements and then determine if your consumer level motherboard will meet your performance expectations.

  • What is the best Video Card I can get for an Early 2008 Mac Pro?

    What is the best Video Card I can get for an Early 2009 Mac Pro3,1?

    A 3,1 is "Early 2008" with DDR2 FBDIMMs, Intel 54xx Harpertown, and not 2009 Nehalem with DDR3.
    http://www.barefeats.com bench tests. A 3,1 does not improve as much due to its old PCIe 2.0 implementation for one thing.
    "Best" is hugely subjective. For what? cost versus performance and whether you need CUDA support or AMD - dual AMD's for FCP-X for instance.
    I think GTX 970 right now is close to "best".
    And of course shop here:

  • What is the best video card my computer can handle?

    Hi I  currently have this HP Desktop PC: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02636777&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&lang=en&product=505...
    I wanted to know what the best video card this computer can handle WITHOUT replacing the power supply.
    this computer has a power supply of 250W but I was told that it could handle a Radeon HD 5570 but the 5570 requires "Stream Processors: 400 Stream Processing Units " does that mean it requires 400W power supply?
    My questions:
    1) Can my HP PC handle the Radeon HD 5570?
    2) If it can't what is the best video card that my computer can handle that is BETTER than the one it comes with, NVIDA GeForce 6150 SE?

    Hi,
    I would recommend that you upgrade your power supply and not go against the video card manufacturer's recommendation.

  • What is the best video card for 3D?

    I'm getting a 2008 Mac Pro, will equip it with 10GB of RAM. What is the best video card for 3D rendering? I've read that the stock ATI 2600 card is woefully inadequate. I've also read that the NVIDIA 8800 card is better for gaming, and has caused some problems anyway. I can't spring for the top-end Quadra card that Apple offers. Are there good, cost-effective options for 3D work? Can I even get a video card on the open market that is not flashed by Apple?

    Basically there are only three options available:
    1. ATI 2600
    2. ATI 1900
    3. NVidia 8800
    The latter is the best of the three. See benchmark results at Bare Feats.
    You cannot use a video card not provided by Apple because they will not work with OS X or the hardware.

    A 15" mid-2009 MBP RAM specifications are: 204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM.
    As has been pointed out, OWC is an excellent source for Mac compatible RAM.  Crucial is another first rate source for Mac RAM.  RAM from either vendor will work just as well as any purchased from Apple with the bonus of being less expensive and having a lifetime guarantee.

    Hello, iBillyxD. 
    Thank you for the question.  The best way to avoid this behavior would be to delete the music video from your library.  You can always download it again free by accessing your previous purchases.  To delete and item in your iTunes library, select the item and hit delete on your keyboard.

  • Trying to import a .mov file made with gotomeeting - no problems in past yet says No importable files -None of the selected files or folders can be imported. Change the selection and try again.  re-recorded 3 times and still not accepting HELP

    Trying to import a .mov file made with gotomeeting - no problems in past doing this. After 3 attempts recording the hour long video and trying to upload it to iMovie, it says No importable files -None of the selected files or folders can be imported. Change the selection and try again. What could the reason be?

    After much research and troubleshooting, GoToMeeting replied with the final answer: We do not support the uploading of recordings to editing software. If you are having issues uploading a recording, unfortunately, we do not have tools or steps to resolve this. It is not a supported feature. I am sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you. 
    The no longer plan to support editing of recordings made with their software.  So, we are planning to find a new meeting provider.

  • TS1935 I have the video card model . What is the best video card for a 1.6GHz PowerPC G5 please?

    Hello
    What is the best (most modern and reliable) video card (AGP) which will work in a 1.6GHz PowerPC G5 (mid 2003)?
    I believe I have ATY,RV350, and according to the attached article, it may be causing video start up problems.
    Thank you

    Hi Adam,

    Though with no power loght & such, I'm not sure that is the problem or not... does the Hard drive(s) spin up?

  • What is the best video card for an Early 2008 Mac Pro

    I have an early mac pro with a solid state drive. I use Adobe CC 2014. The old video card is not working. I loaded Yosemite and have bad problems using Prem Pro CC.
    Any suggestions on the most suitable video card?

    We love it when people want us to guess what video card and other items you have .... price is no object of course right.... and you want CUDA? so that means a GTX this time instead of what you have (5770 upgrade? no, the original 2600XT that really should have been ditched long ago).
    Yosemite also makes more demands on the GPU.
    The GTX 680 Mac Edition EVGA would be the first, though people are using even newer graphic cards in the Nvidia line.
    New Nvidia GTX 970 and 980 - cMP?  (  1 2 3 4 5 6)

  • 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.

  • Which one is the best video card?

    greetings!
    i want to buy a new video card but now i have not the money for a quadro card that is the best for the after effects and other video editing software. i want an opinion...which are the characteristics in the new video card that i should notice for after effects?
    a high value engine clock or memory clock?
    high value in Unified Shader Processors?
    i m thinking about ati 's hd 3870....have anyone use this card with good results?

    Well, don't get me wrong, but that's one of those "ask 100 different people, get 100 different answers" questions. As long as we are talking After Effects or other Adobe products, the most important considerations are:
    Q: Does the card provide enough video RAM to run on large monitors/ dual monitors without loosing any acceleration functions?
    A: Yes, if it has 512 MB or more, it ius usually safe to say that it even will run perfect on dual 24" screens or very large 32" single screens.
    Q: Which applications use acceleration and what kind of acceleration?
    A: AE --> interface, 3D compositions, MediaCore (footage handling) some effects, Encoding MPEG with Adobe Media Encoder; Encore --> Preview window, transcoding; Premiere --> interface drawing, MediaCore, Clip viewers, some effects; Photoshop --> 3D (to a very minor exctent), video layers.
    Q: How does it affect my choice of graphics card and what features do they use?
    A: All of them use primarily custom pixel shader magic, so to answer your question: more pipelines (ALUs) = more joy. The use of vast amounts of video RAM (beyond drawing the UI) would only have relevance for AE if you are working with many large layers in OpenGL mode or Photoshop with massive 3D objects.
    The rest is pretty much of no consequence. A lot of those functions are not perfectly realtime, so overclocked processors will go unnoticed. Memory transfer speed might be a minor concern, but that's mainly relevant for AE's 3D to load and unload the "textures" and Photoshop. However, unless you are doing this all the time, you will never notice it, either.
    Most current consumer cards support Adobe products well enough to make it a "safe" buy, so unless you are running other, more resource hungry apps that may need a special environment and optimized drivers you should be happy. The only warning I can give is to be wary with any GeForce 8800 models, as they are prone to problems. The ATI card you are eyeing sounds reasonably powerful, so it should work.

  • What is the best video card that will physically fit in my hp all-in-one...

    I have an HP 23" b010 all in one desktop, which only came with the onboard graphic processor, but has a PCI express bus I would like to install a graphics card on, but I know little of what will actually fit in the weird all-in-one slim body, plus run with this processor...AMD E2-1800 APU 1.7ghz , so, there has to be somebody out there that knows about this stuff...would love to be up and running within two weeks for the release of Simcity 5. Thanks in advance for your responses! 

    Hi,
    Based on the following specs, there is no room for you to put a video card internally.  The PCIe slot may only fit a wireless card.

  • What is the best video card to edit uncompressed .avi digibeta files.

    I just digitised my digibeta footage into uncompressed .avi video files.
    I just would like to know what will be the best way to edit using FCP.
    What video card do I need? What are the best specs that i need to have on a mac pro or a mac book pro.
    How is it possible?
    Thx,

    Why .avi?
    Final Cut Pro works with QuickTime .mov files.
    The video card in your MacBook Pro will be fine. The way to avoid rendering is to make sure that your Easy Setup and Sequence Settings match your source material.

  • 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.
    View Solution.

    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.
