Graphics card for Apple Cinema Display on windows 27 "

Hi Forum Hardware,

I just bought a new Apple 27 '' LED Cinema Display to my Windows computer. In South Africa, there seems to be no available adapters and the opinion I have of the internet seems to be that the evolution of my graphics card to one that has a 'mini display port' for the monitor is a better option than to an adapter.

You kindly me has helped build my windows computer a year ago and my understanding at the time was that the configuration must be balanced. Could you help me to choose a graphic card with a "mini display port" that complement my setup (or improve) and at the same time would have the necessary Mini display for the Apple monitor port. There are a few confusing information on the internet, which implies that the Apple 27 "monitor connection option, which I think might be true in the past, but the latter being only a mini display port.

, I use my computer mainly for video in Premiere Elements editing as well as stills edit in Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom 4. At some point, I can move to Premiere Pro.

I used a card nVidia GTX 560Ti with a Dell US2711 graphics 27 "monitor. I repeated the screen problems crashing and recovery. Error message read something like "nVidia has detected a problem and needs to close." Above all, he didn't plant the software, just the screen. I just got the graphics card drivers updated with a clean install and we hope that it can fix the problem that I intend to transfer the GTX 560Ti graphics card in another computer, but I feel worried for the next purchase of the graphics card. Is there any advantage to keep the 560Ti in my computer graphics card, but also the new graphics card with the mini display port? I remember that there is also integrated in my configuration graphics. I was wondering if the two graphics cards could have compatibility problems.

I read that these very high resolution screens, 2560 x 1440 pixels, gave some people problems slow down their computers. It would be a graphics card problem? I would rather err on the side of more power than less energy I spend a lot of time to video editing. Very frustrating if the computer is slow or crashes.

My Windows computer:

CPU: Sandy Bridge i7 - 2600K

Motherboard: GA-Z68XP-UD4

RAM: 4 x 4 GB DDR3 - 1600

PSU: Corsair Pro Gold AX850

CPU cooler: Cooler Master H212 EVO

Windows 7

The supplier declares that he has the following graphics cards which have ports mini display. I asked on nVidia cards, he said he didn't have any in stock. If none of the three below works well, it would be easier for me, but if you have any other suggestions that would be better, I'd rather hunt further for the cards. I live in the country but may order of the city. Or a map of lower end with mini display port, as well as my old card GTX 560Ti would be better?

In stock at the supplier:

MSI Twinfrozr OC 3 GB Ram R7950

ATI Radeon MSI OC 2 GB Ram R7870

Radion HD 7850

I would appreciate your help again.

Kind regards

Linda Collison

Linda,

With your i7 - 2600K, 16 GB of memory and I hope a good Setup, I suggest you:

  • GTX 660 it if you overclock the system to about 4.2 GHz and have at least 4 drives
  • GTX 660 if you overclock a little
  • GTX 650 it boost if you have disks of 3 or less and use the savings for an extra drive
  • GTX 650 it so you do not overclock and have records of 3 or less AND you usually export to the same dimensions as your source material, so there is no scaling.

If regularly you export to other dimensions of the image, i.e. 1920 x 1080 to DVD and scaling is still present, then go for the next best card, for example instead of a big boost GTX 650 it, look at the GTX 660.

As Alex said, it makes no sense to spend too much on a single component, when it is supported by other components. That's why these fucking directions.

I thought a lot about this kind of questions, since they pop up so much and I collect my thoughts on this for some sort of decision table, which allows people to choose the base system they use, the nature of their raw material, the kind of editing they do and exports they need. The problem, however, is to make all of these interdependent factors appear in a simulation of what if that makes sense to people. Don't forget, we're not Professor Eppes in Numb3rs, so (auto-regressive integrated moving average) ARIMA modeling with Cholesky decomposition is not feasible.

  • Can I connect a Macbook from 12 "to my old Apple Cinema Display 30 ''?

    I have a new 12 "MacBook that I cannot connect to my Thunderbolt display, but was hoping to connect it to my old Apple Cinema Display 30". So far, no luck, don't just wanted to ask if it was a popular race of crazy or maybe I was doing something wrong.

    The 30 "Cinema Display has a DVI port out, and so far I used it successfully with an old MacBook Air via an Apple Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter.

    Then I thought, 'I'll buy a USB - C for the Mini DisplayPort adapter!' thinking that I would be able to link 12 '' MacBook with USB - C to Mini DisplayPort adapter Apple Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter to Apple Cinema Display 30 ''.

    It does not work. I tried two different USB - C for the Mini DisplayPort adapters and two different Apple Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter, without success.

    If this work, or is it doomed to failure? And if it should work, what can I do better?

    Thank you

    Alan

    A single adapter would be the best bet. If you can find a C - USB to DVI, maybe that would work, assuming that the Cinema display does not use a DVI port updated the. Here is a sample of the Amazon.

  • How can I determine compatibility graphics card for a Pavilion P6-2378?

    Is there a manual or a list of compatible graphics cards for my Pavilion P6 2378 office? I have improved the power to 500 watts and try to install a Sapphire Radeon HD 7850 PCIe 3.0. It is buggy on startup because it takes about 45 seconds for the display to get a signal and Windows Media center does not open with the card, but does so with the removed card.

    Thank you for your response... P6-2378 is a desktop, not a laptop. I found the cause of the problem and it has to do with the settings that HP or Microsoft Wind8 in the WOODS with the parameter 'Secure Boot'. It must have the value 'Legacy Boot' for a different graphics card to work.

  • Try to connect 2007 Apple Cinema Display to the retina of MacBook Pro

    I'm trying to connect my MacBook Pro retina 2015 to my old Apple Cinema Display 2007. Apple recommended the purchase of the Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI. I connected everything except directly from monitor adding firewire cable.

    I can see the image of the bottom of my laptop, but it is. No feature and not an imitator of my laptop. I'm not 'super tech savvy' but need help. Any ideas what I am doing wrong? Thanks in advance.

    Looks like you have the display as extended desktop configuration. With this the second screen is like an extension of the first screen. For the use of several screens, see:

    It is similar to the other versions of OSX

  • How to connect mid 2000 Apple Cinema Display to all new MacBook Pro

    Hi all

    I have an old monitor Apple Cinema Display (probably around 2005/2006) and would like to connect it to my new MacBook Pro. I bought the cable I thought I needed but it wasn't the right one, so to avoid that happening again, please could someone advise which is the right cable to use.

    Thank you!

    I have no idea of what you purchased was not compatible.

    You will need an adapter of your Thunderbolt port for the cinema display.  I guess (since you don't specify the entries on the screen) that your cinema display has a DVI input then get something like these:

  • Apple Cinema Display with old Mac

    Hello! I was wondering, I have an apple Cinema Display with the famous ADC video plug. I also have a couple of old Mac without a monitor, for example a performa 6360 Powermac 6100 and Macintosh iicx and Iisi. Y at - it a video adapter to use the movie with these old Mac screen? is this possible?

    Thanks in advance!

    The main obstacle is that a screen ADC must get its power through an ADC port on the computer. The old Mac you list can only the power of their old school connectors.

    I remember this adapter:

  • Mac Pro, Apple Cinema display, no brightness control

    Hi, hope you can help me.

    I recently bought a (2nd hand) Mac Pro with an Apple Cinema Display 27 "monitor. El Capitan installed and fully implemented to date. For some reason my Apple keyboard brightness do not work and there is also no under display settings brightness adjustment. I read that some people had similar problems due to some bugs, but it was in 2013 with older versions of Mac OS.

    Does anyone know how I can control (mainly make it brighter) my movie screen? Right now the screen is too dark, and it is not suitable for video editing.

    My config is:

    OS X El Capitan (V 10.11.3)

    Mac Pro (end 2013) - 3 GHz 8 Core Intel Xeon E5

    64 GB 1866 Mhz DDR3 ECC

    GPU: AMD over-pants D700 6144 MB x 2

    PS as you can see in the picture there is no brightness adjustment that I can use.

    The screen is connected via thunderbolt.

    The brightness on the KB (F1 and F2) keys work?

  • Updated my graphics card for HP Pavilion Elite e9107c?

    Hi all

    I want to update my graphics card for my computer, I can barely run settings means on most games these days, I never upgraded a computer in front of either, this was pre-built.

    I am aware that the case is really small, but I'm not interested to buy a new computer/case. I want to just buy a graphics card and a power supply so I can run games like Guild Wars 2 and BF3 on medium-high settings. My computer can not handle same BF3 with resolution of 800 x 600, with windows, and graphic down, I get 10 frames per second at most out of it.

    Then I would ask, what is the best graphics card that can fit in my computer? And her appropriate food to go with it?

    TECHNICAL DATA:

    Computer name: HP Pavilion Elite e9107c

    Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200(2.33GHz)

    Graphics card: ATI Radeon HD 4350

    Power: 300W

    Motherboard:

    RAM: 8 GB

    32-bit operating system - Windows 7

    I am sure that all this is true, if I'm wrong, you can check online, its pre-built and I have not touched since.

    I don't know what my motherboard, is the one that comes with the computer, I found this out of a site, and I think it's good, I'm not too sure:

    Motherboard - PEGATRON CORPORATION / model: 1.01 Eureka3

    I know either the size of the card, or the power supply.

    Whatever it is it would help a lot! My computer is already 3 years old, and I can not play games like TF2 and Skyrim above 800 x 600 with the everything low-medium settings by getting 20 + FPS.

    Thanks in advance for the answers, I will add more information, if I listed those are not sufficient.

    Navibol,

    Looking at your specifications and the requirements of the games you listed, BF3 is most intense.

    (1) you must measure the length available. See here

    (2) I would recommend the EVGA GTX560 or GTX560Ti, see here

    3) the minimum POWER supply: 560 suggests a 450W power supply, the 560Ti suggests 500W PSU.

    I would say the Rosewill 630 or Corsair 600 . I'm the Rosewill this bias.

Maybe you are looking for
