Which graphics card is needed for CS3 to run on a new laptop?

Hi - I'm shopping for a new laptop and would like to install my CS3 software onto it. At the moment I've decided on a customized HP 8570P with these specifications:
1600x900 display
700 GB disk drive
2 main memory slots with one 8 MB SIMM for now with the option to increase to 16MB in the future.
My question is: should I go with the Intel HD Graphics 4000 card or the AMD Radeon HD 7570M? I plan to upgrade to CS6 in about 6 months but would really like to get CS3 up and running on the new laptop before then. The programs I use most are illustrator and photoshop. Thanks in advance for your help

I agree with Chris.
While Intel makes good chips, their video driver support has been historically weak. Now, with greater concentration on the graphics chips, things might improve. However, until there are many reports of such support, I would stay away from embedded Intel graphics chips personally.
ATI/AMD and nVidia do a very good job, with new drivers almost every month for current OS's and cards.
Good luck,
Hunt

KumuRay3 I would recommend posting to each of the different Adobe point products forums. This way you can benefit from users with everyday real world experience and their suggestions. The forums you will want to post to is as follows:

Which graphics cards are recommended for Final Cut Pro X?

I'm in the process of downloading Final Cut Pro X and I'm truly exited.
I have a 2008 Mac Pro with 8GB of memory and am going to order 8GB more.
Now I'm looking to upgrade my graphics card. This card also should support Adobe After Effects.
Thanks

Get a PC ATI 5870 or 6870 for little money and install MacBook Pro 2011 graphics update.
Works out of the box from 10.6.7 on.
Visit netkas.org forums for more info.

Which graphic card is best for running illustrator (an Intel Iris Pro or Nvedia)?

I am thinking on buying a new machine for carrying on my job. Uptill now i was working on windows with an iGPU and i was facing problems in rendering effects or generating previews in Adobe Illustrator. Now i am looking for a good dedicated GPU which can easily take its load. I do moderately heavy works (average file size 150mb).

No, its not a dedicated GPU. But still will it able to do the job? i am thinking of buying a 15" macbook.
The 15"retina version has these three options for graphics
-Intel iris graphics
-intel Iris pro graphics
-intel iris pro graphics + nvidia GeForce GT750m
The later two are kinda out of budget and i also think that these are way more than what i be actually needing. So, will Intel iris graphic be fine or i should look for some other machine (Dell or ASUS) with NVIDIA graphics since apple has no options for NVIDIA in lower versions.

gfxcardstatus - http://codykrieger.com/gfxCardStatus/

Which graphics card do I need?

I'm ready to buy a 3GHz Mac Pro, but am confused as to whether the default 7300 graphics card is enough for my purposes, or if I need to spend more for the X1900.
First off...I never play games on my Mac, and have no desire to ever run Windows on it either...hopefully that will simplify things
Here is what I do have and use:
- a single 30" cinema display
- will be installing 8gb of memory in the Pro
- use Photoshop heavily...including extrememly large files from scanned large format film
- only real video-intensive thing I do is watching the occasional DVD movie
- do a lot of work with large audio files
- general web surfing and iLife application useage
...does anything on that list scream out for an X1900, or will I be just fine with the default 7300? I'm quickly reaching the limit on my budget for this, and it would be real nice to not have to worry about this upgrade. Appreciate any advice!
I had been planning on holding off on this til Adobe releases CS3, but I got to play around with CS2 on another Pro recently, and I think it will be plenty fast enough for now.
Mac Pro Mac OS X (10.4.7)

I had the 7300 card and upgraded to an X1900. I only notice the difference playing games (especially in Windows), or using Motion or Second Life. The speed difference in 3D apps compared to the 7300 is basically extraordinary. I had no idea video cards went that fast!
In every other non-3D app (or limited 3D app, like FCP, the OS, etc.) the 7300 is more than fine.
I have played with both configurations, so I say this from experience.
All of that said, I heavily question the 3 GHz model where money is limited. Here's why:
I had the 3GHZ model and now have the 2.66.
The 13% speed difference is not really noticable, even in intensive work like FCP. The 2.66 is still incredibly fast. I'd advise only the 3.0 where "time is money", literally.
I saved over $1000 by returning my defective 3.0 model [bad hard drive bays] and upgrading a 2.66 model with my own RAM, drives, etc. $1000! For no noticable real-world speed decline, and a marginal at best decline on benchmarks.
That money I saved I was able to add AppleCare, additional HD, upgrade the RAM and/or video card. I saved a LOT of money.
I'd put all that money to RAM if I was in your shoes... I have 4GB now and it makes a huge difference over even 2GB.

Which Graphics Card for a 40 inch HDTV LCD or Plasma Monitor for the best

Which Graphics Card for a 40 inch HDTV LCD or Plasma Monitor for the best value and price?
Hi, I was wondering if I replace my current standard graphics card for a MacPro Early 2008 for a graphics card for a 40" HDTV, which was is the best for the price and value? My current card when used with such a large monitor/ TV isn't very good, I think? So thinking of updating...

This sounds like a price match question. Without knowing all the details, it sounds like a yes for the Westinghouse, but I would encourage you to read the price match policy link here:
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Help-Topics/Bestbuy.com-Price-Match-Guarantee/pcmcat204400050011.c?id=pc...
If all you care about is 1080p definition and an HDMI input at a $300 price point then this tv should suit your needs. (As a bonus it has 120Hz refresh for smoother action scenes.)http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Westinghouse+-+40%26%2334%3B+Class+-+LCD+-+1080p+-+120Hz+-+HDTV/5772998....

How to set up set which NIC card to use for multicast?..

 I just downloaded Rolling Patch 1 for WLS6.0SP2.
 While reading the README file it says
 " ISSUE 42518: Provided a way to set which NIC card to use for multicast traffic
 Can anyone tell me how to set this?. on my WebApplication server it has two NIC
 cards and I want to use the NICcard which is being used to talk to internal network
 for multicast messages.
 One more thing,
 Can anyone one tell how to search for bugs (ISSUES) in weblogic. I am looking
 place where I enter ISSUE number and should get the detailed description of bug/issue
 etc..
 Thanks for helping,
 Nilesh


 Thanks Kumar, I'll try this.
 Does this -Dweblogic.interfaceAddress used only for multicast. Or this is also
 used to talk to AdminServer?.
 The other problem I am facing is when I restart the AdminServer in recovery mode
 it's not finding my WebApp servers, because my webapp servers are on public network
 and my admin (management) server is on private network.
 please look at http://newsgroups.bea.com/cgi-bin/dnewsweb?cmd=article&group=weblogic.developer.interest.management&item=1217&utag=
 , for more details about my problem.
 Thanks,
 Nilesh

Which graphics card will my MBP be using in bootcamp?

Hey guys I'm considering installing bootcamp on my MBP. It has Intel HD4000 and Nvidia gt 650m. I was wondering which graphics card it would be using in bootcamp. THanks

Windows will only use your dedicated graphic card, in this case, the NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M, because the integrated graphic card can't be used (there are problems with the GPU switch in Windows).
After installing Windows, install the most recent driver for your GPU from the NVIDIA site > http://www.nvidia.com

What kind of wireless card I need for my Power Mac G5 (late 2005) Dual 2 GH

hi there,
I have for sometime now a "Power Mac G5 (late 2005) Dual 2 GHz PowerPC G5", and recently I have been thinking to get an Airport extreme wireless card with a bluetooth on it, which could work on my machine.
I have already try to deal with apple representatives and Apple sales people to give me a hand on the matter and so far is been a nightmare to approach this guys, tired of wasting time and effort, so that is way I am posting a topic on this section to see if you guys could give a hand on the matter.
All what I would like to know is what kind of wireless card I need for my Power Mac G5 (late 2005) Dual 2 GHz PowerPC G5 (version 10.4.11) and where I could buy one on line to install myself.
This is the mac unit I have.
Dual 2 GHz PowerPC G5.
Hardware Overview:
Machine Name: Power Mac G5
Machine Model: PowerMac11,2
CPU Type: PowerPC G5 (1.1)
Number Of CPUs: 2
CPU Speed: 2 GHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 1 MB
Memory: 4.5 GB
Bus Speed: 1 GHz
Boot ROM Version: 5.2.7f1
Thanks for you time.
regards
Toyko koyko

You're welcome. Funny how Apple works isn't it? If it's any consolation, that Airport/Bluetooth card doesn't show up on the Apple U.S. store either. I don't think they ever intended it to be a user installable part, so perhaps that's why they don't offer it for sale. Do you have any Apple Authorized Service providers in your area? I'd think they'd be able to order the card as a replacement part.
Can you give a little more detail or a link to the gadget you're referring to? It sounds like a USB dongle to enable Wi-Fi, but that must be a third party solution, since I don't believe Apple ever offered something like that.

Which graphics card with a new 24"?

I come to the all-wise gurus of the Apple Discussion board seeking knowledge and direction. <lol>
Now that I have the formalities out of the way:
I am considering a new 24" iMac and am wondering which graphics card I should get. What are the advantages/disadvantages between the standard "ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO graphics processor with 256MB of GDDR3 memory" or the "NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS graphics processor with 512MB of GDDR3 memory"?
I will use the mac primarily for home use, creating DVDs, working with iPhoto (only hobbyist) and the like. I would also like to have the ability to extend the desktop by hooking up a mini-DVI adapter and an external monitor eventually. I might run a PC emulation app or BootCamp, but I don't know that I'll be a "gamer".
Thanks in advance for any advice.
-Bret

My two cents is that if you can afford it, go with the upgraded card. You never know where your interest will take you and, while I love my 24" iMac (late 07 model), I do lament about the fact that you can't really upgrade components such as the video card or the hard drive. You can solve the hard drive issue with external storage but you are basically stuck with the video card that you get at the time of order.
I know, not really sage advice but that's my take on it. By the way, the 24" rocks so whichever way you go you will enjoy!

How can i edit psd files in PS touch or which software/app i need for androiud tablet (newest tablet)

how can i edit psd files in PS touch or which software/app i need for androiud tablet (newest tablet) @samsung

You can import PSD files into Photoshop Touch but the PSD file will be flattened. (The original, of course, will remain untouched; PS Touch just copies it upon import.) I imagine this was done as a failsafe measure since PS Touch has no support for masks or adjustment layers (not to mention that PS Touch only has support for about 12 layers).

Which is the software needed for an installation on a production server

Hi,
which is the software needed for an installation on a production server (windows 2008) of Forms/Reports 11g ?
I mean the old 10g stand alone forms and report service but un 11g release ..
Regards

For application deployments (production), you will need the following software. The same is true for a design-time environment.
1. Weblogic Server 10.3.2
2. Fusion Middleware 11.1.1.2
See my update in the following:
Re: Some FORMS quesion...
All products are contained within the Fusion Middleware (Forms, Reports, Portal, Discoverer) distribution. This includes Builders, Runtime components, HTTP Server, Web Cache, etc. During the installation process, you choose which you want to install.
