Card Zotac video Mac Pro 1.1

Mac Pro 1.1 8 GB Ram Zotac GeForce 8800GT video card

I just bought a Zotac card to replace my 7300GT dead card. Installation, start the computer (can hear the chime) but nothing on the card. I've read about flashing video cards, but how can I do this without screen on my Mac?

Thank you

In general, you need a PC with windows.

  • ASUS USB 3.1 PCI card in the Mac Pro 4.1/5.1

    Hello

    As the proud owner of a Mac ro 4.1 (updated to 5.1 and 2 X of Hexa-Core Xeon X 5670 CPU) I "suffer" a restriction.

    And it is now old and really slow USB 2.0.

    I would like to add a PCI USB 3.1 and I spotted the ASUS USB 3.1 PCI card.

    Of course, this card is given only as compatible with Windows...

    But I've seen a few reports of people claiming to have inserted this card in their Mac and have used successfully with several devices.

    It seems that these reports are under "Yosemite".

    I was wondering if they are always good with El Capitan...

    I put the card in the Mac.

    It seems to be recognized by the Mac Pro.

    In fact looking at the system information, under "PCI" give "Expansion USB card".

    BUT:

    -No USB key I have insert mounts;

    -No USB stick plug mounts;

    -my mouse lights

    -the keyboard does not work...

    So I'm wondering if:

    -El Capitan has got rid of the first USB support 3.1 to Yosemite?

    - Or if my card can be default somehow?

    -If this behavior can be caused by updates, I made (Mac 4.1-5.1 online) + 8-Core CPU-online 12 Core CPU?

    If anyone would be able to help me, I would be eternally grateful :-)

    If so, the card can be sent to the seller...

    Kind regards.

    Hello there Penguiner.

    Looks like you bought the ASUS USB 3.1 PCI card and questions about its compatibility with your Mac Pro. The following Knowledge Base article speaks to the maps provided by Apple which have been tested and work with the Mac Pro:

    On the compatibility between Mac Pro-carte models graphics

    Since the ASUS card is not listed, the reference of the article could be a good recommendation to follow:

    This article applies only to video cards that originally shipped with a specified Mac Pro or upgrade kit have been offered by Apple. Similar maps that are not provided by Apple may have compatibility issues and you have to work with this card provider to confirm compatibility.

    Thank you for reaching out to the communities of Apple Support.

    Kind regards.

  • Vs CPU Ram graphic card upgrade for Mac pro performance?

    Just after the crossroads to aboard the cloud to Adobe and seeks help on CPU Ram vs graphics card GPU.

    Material:

    • MAC Pro (early 2009) 4.1 2.26 Ghzdual core 8, 23 grams (5 x 4 g sticks and sticks of 3 x 1 G), 4 x 1 TB 7200 RPM int. HD (1 scratch drive), (no windows don't things here)
    • Graphics card Ge Force GT120 Machine has 64-bit capability, but normally starts in 32- bit due to old still used 32-bit apps.
    • Watch CS6 AE activity monitor uses all 16 son, works in 64 bitsand seizes about 10 Gig of ram to operate in.

    Software:

    • Running OS x 10.6.8. (Snow leopard) with all updates.
    • All major video applications: creative cloud (also have studio FCP 3 installed but just move to Adobe now on video works)

    I really like this AE & body use all threads, made in the background (which results in NO crashes (so far)) because my old 120 GT video card apparently is more stifling that it worked in FX in FCP 7 & 4 Motion.

    1. Q - can someone point me in the direction of how Adobe got the device to use all the cores and threads and run it in 64-bit, but starts in 32 bit?

    In terms of performance, (rendered in particular) I know I should go to the Apple/ATI 5870 graphics card, but as a veterinarian of fixed-income securities disabled, $450 is hard to find. I evaluated cards flashes, including those of macvidcards on ebay, but for used cards which are flashed, it gives me pause, especially when they are about the same price as the new price of 5870.

    So I am struggling with trying to figure out that the best shot for the less $$$, where the issue of the title.

    1. Is it more effective for video FX works to add CPU ram or (gulp) to upgrade the video card to 5870 card?

    Example: I can add sticks of 3 x 4 G in place and place existing 3 x 1 G sticks of ram for less than $200 CPU. A new 5870 card is $ 450 Apple. Approach that annoys me that most make speed plant put VFX work in AE CS6 or P Pro CS6?

    Sorry, I'm more than a little fuzzy on this, but hoping a kind soul will lead the way.

    For After Effects, more RAM is better. For Premiere Pro, an improved GPU is more important. In addition, you might consider spending money even on an SSD, which is beneficial for both (for caches).

  • Main problems to upgrade the graphics card in my Mac Pro in 2006.

    I am trying to upgrade the graphics card OEM in my Mac Pro 2006 to a Radeon HD 4870 1 GB graphics card.  I have big problems.  The previous owner recommended that my BONES 10.7.5 uninstalling and reinstalling.  I don't know how to do this.  The Apple website was no help with this issue.  The previous owner gave me a lot of procedures I've ever done before, including removing and re-creation of my RAM and using a Kext troubleshooting application.  Any suggestions you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

    a 4870 with 1 GB of VRAM is not a real Mac card (who had only 512 MB of VRAM). Unlikely to show an image until the login screen, if ever. Unless the seller has a 100% guaranteed working procedure to get this working, I recommend you return for a refund - it is not likely to work in your Mac.

    A true 5770 Mac or 5870 is the best approach for a 2006 or 2007 Mac Pro, because they are known to work with everything except movies under copyright, and your Mac is stuck in the 32-bit kernel and pre - 10.7.5 MacOS.

  • Expansion card Thunderbolt for Mac Pro desktop

    Desktop Mac Pro with OS 10.11.3.

    I plan to replace my popular BU external hard drive with a 6 TB of Raid drive.  The office is not equipped with a Thunderbolt port and would therefore add an expansion card Thunderbolt.  Any suggestions?

    Having a large number of drives 1 TB is a mess, but I do not understand there are some misgivings and other limitations as the Thunderbolt expansion card insertion location.

    I would like to add an expansion card Thunderbolt.

    It is not now, nor will there EVER be a ThunderBolt expansion card. Only computers who left the factory equipped ThunderBolt (or in the case of some systems of ASUS, compatible ThunderBolt) can use ThunderBolt.

    Intel controls custom chips, that you would need, and they don't want a ThunderBolt expansion card. Detective Conan.

  • Subsystem video Mac Pro question

    I just tried to install ESXi on a MacPro 2012 and everything seems fine until after installation.  As the system boots, I get the following error:

    Multiboot cannot configure the video subsystem.

    I heard that there is a problem of resolution, but my screen is already in 1280 x 800.
    Any ideas that I would like this thing to start.

    Have you checked if ESXi has actually started?  It seems that 'Multiboot couldn't configure the video subsystem' is just a warning , and it should continue trying to boot the operating system (without additional updates to the screen) without worrying.  There is no guarantee that it will manage to boot the OS, but it looks like he'll try to do...  You may need to connect another monitor to get it configured (for example if you want to enable SSH), but after that he don't have a monitor at all.  (WARNING: I've never tried!)

    See you soon,.

  • How to upgrade the graphics card (gtx 770 or 980) on Mac Pro 3.1 (2008)?

    Hey,.

    I am looking to update my graphics card on my Mac Pro 3.1 - I currently have a GTX 660ti but I was looking to upgrade to a GTX 770 or, if possible GTX980.

    I have a few questions (GTX 770):

    • Power required: I found a tutorial , but I'm still not sure if the GTX 770 will draw too much power from the PSU?  The TDU is 230w and there are a lot of online chat on do not go above 225w.  I also noticed that my mac pro 3.1 is about 980w - so I'm confused as to why the limit of 225w has been mentioned (something to do with the power being driven by pci slots?)
    • Wiring: The gtx 770 has 1 x 6 pin and 1 x 8-pin connectors.  What/how should I connect to these terminals?  The tutorial mentions buying a Y 2 x 6-pin connector.  Is anyone able to confirm this?
    • Experience: Are confirmed cases of the GTX 770 works on a mac pro 3.1?

    Finally - I wonder about a 770GTX since I.  What is the best card (for games) that confirmed cases of work with the 2008 3.1 mac pro?

    Any help is appreciated and thanks in advance.

    The location PCle supplies 75 watts max. Each of the two connectors on the system board each supply 75 watts max.

    So, you can get 225 watts which for me is pretty close to 230 watts.

  • Illustrator crashes after installation of Nvidia GTX 970 in MAC Pro

    Hi all

    Please notify this problem, it would be a great help.

    in a cheese grater old mac pro as you and it is a festival of crash in .ai and I would be interested to know if you are also experiencing photoshop bail out completely if you try 'resize' an image?

    I tried several other drivers of web that improved things but always authorized random crashes,

    so...

    the only solution that I found (and that's a total of "fix" as abel to get one with some work again finally!) is to disable the gpu acceleration in preferences (not only temporarily using the rocket button or the Preview on CPU option in the menu (, but a STOP appropriate in the Preferences section, same "fix" has been used in Pshop to make it usable as.))

    I was worried that it would mean a totally unnecessary 'upgrade', but coming from a 1 GB card, everything seems still to be a lot better and faster despite disabling the GPU acceleration, perhaps simply because the operating system and all other open applications (not adobe) are able to use the GPU at least partially? and which allows a little more resources elsewhere. Anyway, this isn't a total waste, and I can now work on files that have been previously direction buy me a new imac instead of the mac pro upgrade one last time... (which turns out to be a blessing, because it seems to imac users have problems too).

    the 'upgrade' was essentially a downgrade effect for me in the aftermath, as even though it have 4 x the power of the previous card, Adobe have totally ruined the options found in the application, which means that what was once a system (even with 1 GB) which was capable of an overview of the 'real time' virtually no matter what if you waited so that it runs through a reading of frame by frame 'green line '. , has now turned into an application that can only run previews in real time by jumping the executives, it's a joke...

    hope get you it sorted, and I hope that nvidia will give us more options driver soon?

    or adobe could remedy the situation! Ha ha, that's a good joke to put end to now I think...

  • CUDA hardware in a mac pro

    I am considering buying a 'nvidia gtx-285' card for my mac pro 2008. I have one "NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT 512 MB GDDR3" card. I have a lot of questions about how interesting this update would be:

    1. the cuda technology would give me the possibility of reading Canon 7 d (50mps avchd video) smoothly in CS4? With my current graphics card CS4 chokes on it, and I export files proxy mpeg 2 to edit with.

    2. others may tell me their experience with CS5, cuda card and work with avchd video broadband?

    3. what should I do with my old card? Both are in my mac pro? Having more old one here too would disable use of cuda in the first technology? I could say first to only use the card cuda and ignore it?

    1. the cuda technology would give me the possibility of reading Canon 7 d (50mps avchd video) smoothly in CS4? With my current graphics card CS4 chokes on it, and I export files proxy mpeg 2 to edit with.

    The GPU acceleration isn't a feature of CS5, CS4.  Also check to make sure that your Mac turn he would support.  You need a Mac Pro which is a 3.1 or 4.1.  I have a Mac Pro 2008, and if you look in the System Profiler, it is a 2.1, which means that it will not support a graphic card compatible nvidia CUDA.

    2. others may tell me their experience with CS5, cuda card and work with avchd video broadband?

    It works very well.  the GPU accelerated effects, does not the decoding of the video.  If you put CS5 on your existing Mac Pro, you will get two-thirds of the Mercury Playback without the GPU engine.  Because the CS5 native 64-bit, you will see a big difference in performance.

    3. what should I do with my old card? Both are in my mac pro? Having more old one here too would disable use of cuda in the first technology? I could say first to only use the card cuda and ignore it?

  • Defective video on Mac Pro Intel card?, help!

    Hi all, my Mac Pro Intel crashed at recentpy. At the start, it appears that the SSD drive had failed completely. Since I replaced the drive however at startup, I now feared vertical lines. What is a graphics card problem? I have tested the monitor and it works fine on other machines. The machine hangs at startup and I tried a number of different ways starting in diagnostics etc. The video in the machine card is a Geforce.

    Sounds very like the graphics card has disappeared.

    which he was.

    in a rather more psychedelic way. still, it lasted 7 years when it was supposed to give up almost immediately.

    a lot of options out there if you don't mind is not to have the screen of "boot".

    Hello

    I'm certinaly not an engineer who can comment on how applications are written and how can hearts of processor they can write effectly, but there has been a lot of comments to the Mac Pro (new), and to answer your question, based on what I read, there were comments that the 8 basic model is good for video editing - not too , nor too little.

    Being an editor, I'd always put my money to get the best graphics cards and the largest amount of RAM that you can afford.  For work, we've been specing on new models and it was the 'formula' we follow.  With the exception of the RAM, sounds like once you buy, your clerks to the material with the new machines.

    I found the review below to be a great resource that can help answer your question.
