What to upgrade to from Nvidia Geforce 8600
I have a Gateway FX 530S
Intel core 2 quad CPU Q 6600 @ 2.40 GHz 2.30 GHz
memory RAM 4.GB
32-bit operating system
I play online games alot.... World of Warcraft
Current Graphic card: Nvidia Geforce 8600 gt
1024 x 768 monitor
windows Vista Home
I want to know the best to upgrade to that my system can handle in the price range up to 160.00
I disagree - I have a Q6600 and the GTX460 provided a significant improvement in visual quality (the ability to crank texture resolution and FSAA up in WoW) on a Q6600.
However only low-end GTX460s fall within the OP's price range. However, there are a number of cards that fall between the 8600 and the GTX460 in performance that would work for the OP.)
I'm not sure what the current "$100 workhorse" video card is these days. First it was the 8800GT, then it was the GT240, dunno what now.
The GTS450 seems to be in a fairly good price/performance sweet spot that should perform significantly better than the 8600GT.

Upgrade to new Nvidia GeForce 8600m GT
Anyone know if one can upgrade from the Radeon x1600 (in the former high end MacBook Pro) to the Nvidia GeForce 8600 GT (in the latest generation MacBook Pros just announced)?
Right now there is a serious problem with the drivers for the 8600 GT, so even if you could replace the logic board, you'd be going backwards as far as performance and stability are concerned.
I had the older MBP with the ATI graphics and had to replace it due to an accident. I now have the new MBP, which is a great machine until you try to use anything requiring Open GL support as the new card / driver combo under OS X totally blows.
I only wish I could replace my logic board with one containing the ATI chipset. -
"GPU enhancements/display driver" error with NVidia GeForce 8600 GTS
I am currently evaluating a demo of Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended. I am using a NVidia GeForce 8600 GTS video card. When I open the application, I get this error:
Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver, and has temporarily disables GPU enhancements. Check the video card manufacturer's website for the latest software.
GPU enhancements can be enabled in the Performance panel of Preferences.
Here's the thing - the NVidia graphics driver I'm using is current! It's version 195.62. And here are the specifications of my video card (which is about a few years old).
I am using Windows XP Home 32-bit SP3 with 2GB of DDR2 memory. Processor is AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+.
I've read over the functionality that this error message affects, and I'm not sure I understand it. If my video card is using its most current driver, what the heck am I to do? How badly will this handicap my Adobe Photoshop experience? (For reference, I plan on not doing that much using the 3D capabilities of Photoshop - but it may be interesting one day.)
Also, one bug I'm experiencing is that the Layers window is present, but its contents don't appear unless I click on it.
I'm not sure if I'm open to buying a new video card just to satisfy my Photoshop needs. Any help is much appreciated in overcoming this error and enabling FULLY-operational functionality of Photoshop CS4. Thanks!Here is a link that may help with old GPU's. Also ensure before you update the drivers that opengl is turned off otherwise PS will use the old drivers.

Video Card Upgrade - NVidia GeForce 8600 GT compatible with this PC?
I would like to upgrade my son's graphics card on his computer - an HP Pavilion D4100E with an AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3800+ 2.39 GHz running Windows XP. Can anyone tell me if the GeForce 8600 GT is compatible?
The new GT240 bridges the gap in performance between 9600gt and 9800gt, adds a couple of new features, and uses significantly less power than the 9800gt and may use less than a 9600gt (due to NVidia moving to a 40nm manufacturing process for that chip.)

What is upgrade price from elements 12 premiere elements 12
What is upgrade price of elements 12 to premiere elements 12
Sorry, but that's not how it works. Photoshop Elements is Adobe's consumer-grade version of Photoshop, its big photo editing program. Premiere Elements is not an upgraded version of PSE. It's the consumer-grade version of Premiere, Adobe's video-editing program. Sometimes the two programs (PSE and PRE) are sold together as a bundle.

What to upgrade to from OS X 10.5.8 on macbook?
Hello,
I am currently running OS X 10.5.8 on my macbook, and need to upgrade the software to run the new version of itunes (and a graphics tablet which I have just bought which doesn't work on anything below 10.6 :/) Which version is the next one up for me to upgrade to and where would I get it from, I live in the U.K? Also, would I need to back up any of files? This would be the first time I've done anything like this and I'm not really a technically minded person! =)
Many Thanks,
simon1305Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mavericks if your computer meets the requirements.
Snow Leopard General Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
2. 1GB of memory
3. 5GB of available disk space
4. DVD drive for installation
5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
fees may apply.
6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
terms apply.
Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mavericks
To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Lion, or Mountain Lion installed. Purchase and download Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
Model Identifier 5,1 or later
3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?
See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
Lion System Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
or Xeon processor
2. 2GB of memory
3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
4. 7GB of available space
5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Before upgrading you should do the following:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
Make a backup of the computer by cloning it:
Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
1. Open Disk Utility in the Utilities folder.
2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag
it to the Destination entry field.
5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
the Source entry field.
6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means an external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive. -
Upgrading GPU From Nvidia 840m To Gtx 850m
Can I Upgarde My GPU CPU : 5th Gen I7 5500u 2.4ghz tB upto 3.0ghzRam : 8gb Exandable To 16gb (1600mhz)
, Hello and thanks for posting on the HP support forums. The answer to your question is no. The gpu is built into the motherboard. If you want a system where you have a chance to upgrade your video and other components you will want to look into a desktop. Thanks again for posting and have a great day.

PS CC 2014, how do I enable nvidia GeForce 765M GPU on Alienware 17 after latest upgrade?
Have tried DDU in Safe Mode, for both Nvidia (with reinstall), and Intel 4600 removal. Am using the Dell nvidia version, since latest upgrade direct from nvidia will not install.
Getting GPU acceleration seems to be a problem with every upgrade!I think you may be lucky for Photoshop is known to have problems when there are two different GPU installed and both enabled
Photoshop CC and CC 2014 GPU FAQ
Are you using more than one video card?
Multiple video adapters can cause problems with GPU-accelerated or enabled features in Photoshop. It's best to connect two (or more) monitors into one video adapter. If you have to use more than one video adapter, make sure that they are the same make and model.
Otherwise, crashes and other problems can occur in Photoshop.
Note: Using more than one video adapter does not enhance Photoshop's performance. -
AME CS5.5 Hanging at 75% & Drive Update for NVIDIA GeForce GTX-470
Hello,
I am having problems with AME CS5.5 hanging as well. I was wondering if somone from Adobe can tell me if the latest Driver upgrade for my NVIDIA GeForce GTX 470 card of 285.62 is safe/recomended for Adobe CS5.5 Premiere/AME/Encore/After Effects programs. I do not want to cause any additional issues with my Adobe related issues. My present driver is 280.26...Thanks, SteveI installed the update after creating a restore point.
I guess it's safe, but the behavior is the same. I still have the hanging issue.
I hope that this bug gets fixed soon., -

*THANKS !!!*According to your G5 specification the ATI Radeon 9800 XT with 256MB of DDR SDRAM will work.
+(Notice that there are few models of 9800 i.e.: 9800 64MB, 9800 128MB, 9800 Pro Mac Edition, and some of them are for the older computers)+
But the fastest card for your computer is Nvidia 6800 Ultra DDL or ATI X800XT.
The ATI you can find here:
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/ATI%20Technologies/100435338OB/
6800, usually is much more expensive and not easy to find.

Hi, I need to get advise on what to upgrade to from 10.5.8.? Is it Snow Leopard ?
Thanks !G5 and G4 processors are at the end of the line if they are at 10.5.8.
If you have an Intel processor, 10.6.8 is possible if you follow these tips:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2455
If you have a newer Intel processor, read this about updating to 10.7 or later:

Photoshop CC not detect nVidia GeForce GTX 680 after driver upgrade (Windows 8 64-bit)
i just upgraded the driver for my nVidia GeForce 680 graphics card from the nVidia website. the specifications are shown below. Photoshop CC now says that it can't detect my graphics card. does anyone know the solution to this problem?
nVidia verstion 327.23 WHQL
release date: Sept 9, 2013
operating system: windows 8 64-bit
will adobe have to issue an update to photoshop CC to fix the problem?hey chris,
thx for relplying. i appreciat it. here is what happened. i did an update through microsoft and downloaded a driver for nVidia. somehow that download caused PS CC to stop recognizing my GTX 680. i'm not sure why. subsequent to that, i went to nVidia's website and downloaded the current driver. i still found that PS CC didn't "see" my graphics card. that is when i wrote this post. after i posted this i rebooted my computer and found that everything now works fine. PS CC now recognizes my GeForce GTX 680 with no problems.

Support for windows 10 FREE UPGRADE for E Machines EL1358G WITH NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE NForce 30
i have an emachines EL1358g-51w that came with a NVIDIA GeForce 6450SE NForce 30 ( i believe motherboard ) and i went to upgrade my current windows 7 home basic to the new Windows 10 free upgrade ( which microsoft indicated that i was eligible for the free upgrade one month or so ago ) ..... on sunday i went to upgrade through microsoft now microsoft indicates " the display manufacturer ( emachines/acer ) hasn't made your display compatible with windows 10. check with the manufacturer for support "i went to the nvidia websight ...they indicate see emachines .... i went to the emachines websight ...they indicate see the acer websight ...the acer websight ( per their live agent ) indicates i have to wait until ACER does the update for my specific computer ...DOES ANYONE KNOW WHEN THIS UPDATE WILL BE AVAILABLE ...
mrtease3,
I do not see your unit listed as an eligible model that eMachines will be posting drivers for Windows 10. The drivers that we have posted on our support site are what we have qualified for the system, and based on the age of the unit there will not be newer ones uploaded. If you want to remove the installed graphics driver and try to install one directly from NVidia you can see if that will resolve it for you. -
On Mountain Lion :
It happens to turn of my monitor in different situations. Sometimes i believe i have my graphic video broken ! In my town i don't have Apple doctors so i dont risk to go to a service non authorized from apple !
For example there was a day when it turns off when a simply pinch with thumb and 3 fingers for launchbad ...and the opperating sistem it should be restart from power button ! That was when i had Mountain lion 10.7.5 update
Other situation was with photoshop cs6, cs5, cs4 30 days trial versions ...i couldn't buy any versions so i decided to test a earlier versions that can match with my sistem requirements. In all of this three situations my display had turned off after opening a image or photo or 3d graphics in photoshop...anyway sadness.
Other situation : One day i was simply relaxing surfing facebook and ...than i've just simply open an advertising link ...and on that page i was waiting to load a video that used another player than flash player of youtube. Even two seconds didn't stayed open and trust me it turned off my display once again !
After Mountain Lion :
I told my story to to someone who holds an MacBook Pro i5 etc. and he told me to test the new mavericks maybe it's something broken in my operating system.... and believe me after 2 days of happiness with OS X MAVERICKS , last night my computer restarted because of a problem, and 2 hours ago again....why ? i don't know ! Maybe Video RAM or maybe Memory RAM or Maybe simple conflicts between Trial Photoshop and OS X or maybe my macbook it's 2 old...or i don't know ....for how much i used this mac it should run as an mustang ! MacBook Pro i7 Mid 2010 HDD 500 , 4 GB of DDR 3 , Intel built in Graphic 288 and an NVIDIA GE FORCE 512 , 15 inch display monitor , 283 real cicle counts ( my mac was used as an iphone while charging and using battery) ...i don't know what to do ! Please help !
The Operating System shoes me everytime this error !

Thunderbolt Bus:Mid-2010 15" MacBook Pros - the bad NVIDIA GPU
If you're having frequent kernel panics with your 15" mid-2010, or intermittent screen problems, the problem is, more than likely, the faulty NVIDIA GPU found in a number of those machines.
Here's just a sample of a kernel panic log that points to the faulty NVIDIA card:
Kernel Extensions in backtrace (with dependencies):
com.apple.GeForce(6.4.0)@0x82ac4000->0x82b7afff
dependency: com.apple.NVDAResman(6.4.0)@0x834a0000
dependency: com.apple.iokit.IONDRVSupport(2.2.1)@0x82fd3000
dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily(2.6.5)@0x7a802000

com.apple.nvidia.nv50hal(6.4.0)@0x83c05000->0x84019fff
dependency: com.apple.NVDAResman(6.4.0)@0x834a0000
com.apple.NVDAResman(6.4.0)@0x834a0000->0x8378dfff
dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily(2.6.5)@0x7a802000
dependency: com.apple.iokit.IONDRVSupport(2.2.1)@0x82fd3000
dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOGraphicsFamily(2.2.1)@0x8301b000
Here's the "official" Apple take on the issue - but the very real kernel panics need not be preceded by 'Intermittent black screen or loss of video'... in fact, you might not experience any video problems at all. Although video problems can certainly be a portent of things to come…
So what can you do? Print out a copy of your kernel panic and a copy of the Knowledge Base article and take them, along with your machine, to your local Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. The unfortunate thing is that many people have passed the “three years from date of purchase” now and Apple is not honoring the free logic board replacement for many users. Some dealers seem to be making some exceptions for those past the three year mark, but don’t count on it…
Good luck,
Clinton
