Windows compatible video card for OSX?
I have a windows PC with an ATI All-In-Wonder 9600XT card that i put in it a few years back. I was wondering if this card is compatible with my PPC Powermac G5 Dual 2.7 machine to add on as a second video card. It's only purpose would be for me to import analog video into FCP so I can edit VHS footage. Also, if the TV tuner worked, that would be pretty sweet, but its not that important. Can someone help me????
"was wondering if this card is compatible with my PPC Powermac G5"
Sorry, but no. The card must have been specifically built for Macs.

Windows 8 video card for hp8440p
HI I am using windows 8.1 64bit version in my laptop hp8440p, it contain built in nvidea graphics card, but it is not supported by my laptop.. so please give me a link to download the video card for my laptop....
Hello @ajithtechboy .
To get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial product. You can do this at Commercial Forums.
Even though this is a Commercial product, Try uninstall the Device in device manager, restarting the computer and try going to right click on your graphic adapter and updating the driver. It should update and install the correct driver for Windows 8.1.
Did you check to make sure your system would work with Windows 8.1?
Thanks

Compatible video cards for my Mac Pro
Hi,
I have the first generation MacPro. It came with the Nvidia GeForce 7300 GT and that just died on me.
I called someone around here I can buy from, but it's going to cost me about $550.00 through him. He'd suggested I go third party but couldn't really elaborate on what that meant.
I don't mind paying, I just want to check my options first and see if I can do better in terms of cost. Does anyone know of compatible cards I might be able to use for this machine?
Thanks for any suggestions.
-VincentHi Vincent,
I've just upgraded my Mac Pro 2,1 to the ATI 4870.
Couldn't be happier. Fast & Quiet, only problem is it runs hot. Great timing as it's fantastic for playing Steam games at unreal resolutions and levels of quality. I've upgraded from the 8800GT which will absolutely stump your 7300GT if you can get one.
I've done a review on my blog (see link below). Also a few other upgrades on my Mac Pro such as SSD , Blu-ray and RAID all enhancing the machine to such an extent that it benchmarks faster than the new i7 iMacs according to CineBench.
Anyway good luck with the upgrade.

Compatible video cards for k9n6sgm-v
Hello guys,
i need help. i know that the vga test results supplied on the support page of k9n6sgm-v were up to GF7950 only. what i want to know if it can support graphic cards like geforce series 8 or 9, or its ati counterpart. ive read other forums that says Gf 8600Gt runs fine. how about 9400 GT super?Quote from: veeceetor on 22-May-09, 10:22:04
Earlier today i went out to check 9400GT, but they run out of stocks. How unlucky for me. they said they have 9500gt, will that card be still okay? thanks.. i have a 500w 5v/30a 12v/16a ...
Like Mike said, that PSU is unable to power modern systems.
You can just wait until it blows, if you are lucky it will only kill itself....but I have seen entire systems blown to pieces.
Get something decent with 30A @ 12V (single rail) before trying to add any card at all. -
Dual Monitor video cards for HP Pro 3400
I am looking to add a 2nd monitor to my HP Pro 3400 MT and want to make sure I get a video card that will not have any compatibility issues. I'm not doing any gaming so I don't think I need anything super fancy and I would prefer not to have to upgrade the power supply.
So my questions are:
Is the HP Pro 3400 MT compatible witha PCI Express 3.0 card? 2.1 ?
How much power draw from the video card would require me to upgrade the power supply (my PC is stock, no added peripherals). Is there a way for me to determine how much is being currently (no pun intended) drawn?
Are there any drawbacks to usnig the built-in video card for 1 monitor and a new, single-ouput card for the other (vs a dual-output card) ?
Anything else I need to consider when deciding on a new video card?
Thanks.Hi,

I have CC and while attempting Light Effects, the Light Effects Layer will appear in the layers panel, but the option bar will not appear and neither will the Properties panel. All my preferences are set correct, and my computer has a compatible video card and RAM. Please help!
I tried to delete the layer attempt again. I am in a Photoshop class, but the work is all online, so all my teacher is going to do is send me to this site. I am trying to edit a photo for this class, and without this working, i go to filter>render>light effects. the bar and panel will pop up for about 2 seconds, then disappear. How do i get the options bar and properties panel to display?I was about to suggest resetting LE from the Workspace drop-down top right corner, but if you can't see the Options Bar, I guess that is not going to happen. The normal Tool reset is grey out for LE, so it might be a case of resetting Preferences.

Best video card for G4 tower?
What's the best video card for my G4 tower without breaking the bank?
I have the dual 500nhz, 2GB ram, OSX 10.4.
I currently have a nVidia Gforce64mb with a small fan.No you're OK...
There is DVI-I, DVD-D, & DVI-A, DVI-I contains both DVI-A & DVI-D, HDMI uses DVD-D, (Digital), so it can connect to DVI-I or DVD-D.
Those 4 holes are only used for DVI-A, (analog). -
Choosing a video card for 1st gen (1,1) mac pro
Hey all,
Buying a video card for my mac pro to upgrade from the stock 256mb nvidia, and have narrowed it to these three cards.
ATI X1900 XT
Nvidia 8800GT
ATI 4870
I know to make sure I buy the versions compatible with my generation mac pro etc, but they're all relatively close in price (within $100), so barring comparison in that area, which of these cards are the best? Or are they all pretty equal? I know very little about video cards.
Also, as an aside, does the ATI 4890HD work with 1st gen mac pros? I've seen ebay auctions claiming they do, but I know better than to take them at face value.I wouldn't touch the X1900 overpriced and old.
The 8800GT is hard to find but can be on ebay even for 1st gen
ATI 4870 from Apple is safe bet. -
Which video card for Aperture and dual monitors?
I have a G5 dual 2.0 with a GeForce FX 5200 video card that is driving one 23" Cinema display. I need to upgrade my card per the specs to run Aperture. I have also been thinking of getting a second 23" display. Can someone recommend the best video card for me. I know very little about video cards and have been reading a lot this morning. Thanks,
DaveHi Dave;
No. PCIx and PCIe or PCI Express are not the same thing.
PCIx is an extended or slight sped up version of PCI. While PCIe is a switched bus structure instead.
Hence they are not the same. That is what all of the big news is about Apple has made the leap over to PCI Express.

ATI 5770 1GB Video Card For Mac Pro dvi hdmi cable
I am sending video signal over a 50FT HDMI To DVI from my Mac Pro (3,1) via ATI 5770 1GB Video Card For Mac Pro (5.0 GT/s) (181062917108) and I cannot get a constant signal to my TV. The signal stays on for a few seconds or several hours or my TV (Samsung) says there is no signal or I get just a gray static screen.
I never had a problem before with my previous video card the 512MB nVidia GeForce 8800GT with a 25ft long cable. Any ideas people?A cable of about 5 meters (16 ft) can be manufactured to Category 1 specifications easily and inexpensively by using 28 AWG (0.081 mm²) conductors.[114] With better quality construction and materials, including 24 AWG (0.205 mm²) conductors, an HDMI cable can reach lengths of up to 15 meters (49 ft).[114]
from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDMI
You may need a higher-quality cable or a lower resolution for your display to make this work without an HDMI Repeater. -
Imac 24 inch compatible video cards
What are compatible video cards to update to? I want to use imovie 10. But it needs something from this list
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4664?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_USWelcome to Apple Support Communities
From what we know, your 24-inch iMac has got a replaceable GPU, so you can replace it if you want, and users say it can be replaced by a NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS, which is supported by iMovie 10.0.
Apple won't help you do that, so you have to get the GPU yourself and install it yourself -
Hi,
I am trying to help a friend whose graphics card has bust.
The old one was an ATI RADEON 9800 PRO-(256MB)-MAC EDITION.
I've been looking on ebay and it seems a lot cheaper to get a Mac ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128mb Video Card For G4/G5.
Can I just swap them over? The connectors are not identical according to the photographs.
Thanks.I'd like to thank everyone for all the really useful information in this thread. It helped me solve a similar problem, which I'll describe here briefly in case it helps someone else.
I have a 2004/5 dual 2 Ghz PowerPC G5 and an Apple Cinema HD display linked, as I later found out, with the now defunct ADC connector. The display suddenly started to look like that scene in The Matrix, when code falls like rain down the screen, and I worked out I needed to replace my Radeon 9800 pro video card (I discovered the board was blue when I removed a thick layer of dust).
I took japamac's excellent advice and bought a Geforce 6800 Ultra from the linked eBay seller in Hong Kong, who delivered it extremely quickly, along with the cables to plug it into the DVD drive power source and a CD with installation instructions. It was only then that I realised the card had two DVI connectors and my display needed ADC (I hadn't understood the difference).
eBay came to the rescue again with a seller who had a secondhand DVI to ADC adapter, which Apple produced when it phased out ADC about six years ago but no longer sells. It has its own power supply and looks like a large version of the Mac laptop power cables - and has added signifcantly to the pile of spaghetti under my desk.
Installing the Geforce 6800 Ultra is fiddly, and a bit scary if you're not used to delving into the insides of a Mac, but the instructions were clear and illustrated with useful photos. The video cable has four connectors. Two fit into the end of the card, the other two (linked in a Y shape) form a bridge between the DVD/superdrive and its power cable. You have to remove the DVD drive, unplug it, and then plug one of the two Y video card connectors into the DVD power cable and the other into the DVD drive itself. Then you replace the DVD drive, plug the two remaining cable connectors to the video card and ease it into the old card's AGP slot.
Finally, with the G5 reassembled, plug the adapter's DVI connection into the back of the card, plug the Cinema Display ADC cable into the adapter block, plug the adapter's USB cable into the G5 (this enables the the USB ports on the back of the display to work), and power up.
At the time of writing, the display has been up and running for a couple of hours and all seems fine.
Thanks again everyone for all your help and advice. If it wasn't for communities like this, it would be virtually impossible to solve problems with old but still serviceable Macs. -

Hi,
The answer is no way you can add a video card on your laptop. Actually nearly all laptops including many which have dedicated video cards.
