Question of AE threads/Mac Pro

Hi all, my company is considering the new Mac Pro to our Department. We under CC and intend to work locally on the built-in player. While I'm sure AE going to be faster than on our machines (first gene intel quad cores), I read that the AE does not benefit from multiple cores. We have fairly intensive AE and C4D works so it is a matter of concern. We would not spend a lot of money on the Mac Pro if it turns out that AE works the same speed on an iMac. Anyone can shed some light on this? Adobe plans to update AE so that it IS able to use multiple cores? Some software have done that recently (Apple Motion for example). Thanks much for any info!

> I have read that the AE does not benefit from multiple cores.

This is false.

  • Mac Pro 2013 become hot, not answer and stop.

    Hello

    I have a 2013 Pro Mac, I bought as used before 5 months and he was well, before 3 days, the weather was warm (approx. 28 °) and under normal conditions, use my Mac Pro start freezing and not answered every 15-30 Minutes and automatically stop or I have to disconnect the power cable.

    I started looking on the problem, I checked the bodies of the Mac Pro and I found it very hot, the fan worked but slow, I searched on Google on a tool or a command I can do the fan faster and I found an application called SMC FanControl, this app showing me that Mac temperature of 48 ° also with this app, I was able to turn the fan to Max speed, I heard the noise of the fan, it worked perfectly with this app. The Mac Pro early to work perfectly also with in normal and hard jobs.

    Yesterday, I decided to clean all of my Mac Pro material, maybe that this solves the problem, it was dirty, and I did as new as you can see in this picture:

    I also used for better CPU and GPU thermal compound I found on the market.

    BUT the problem came with the first video editing, 48 ° c, closing down and not be able to turn it on for 5 Minutes.

    The question is: why my Mac Pro not control the fan automatically? is it a software or a hardware problem? If the material someone we know exactly?

    Best regards

    Which component was 48 c?

    What was the hottest component?

    It's not hot at all.

    From now on my MP 2013 with base CPU, CPU ITPP and CPU sensors 1-4 are about 100 ° C and speed of 84CFan two GPU time 1750

  • The Mac Pro to buy - base 4 or 6 for Indesign, Illustrator, Photoshop CC

    Hey there, I'm new to this forum and I wanted to ask a question on the current Mac Pro.

    I am with the purchase of a new Mac Pro, but I honestly can't work if it's interesting to go to 4 or 6 core version.  I do not think that Illustrator CC takes advantage of multi-hearts, but I think possibly Indesign CC and certainly made photoshop CC.  I could be wrong completely well things may have changed.

    I'm a graphic designer and especially work in the press.  I create posters, brochures and event work sometimes large format.  Recently, I worked with files around the mark of 500 MB to 1 GB, in photoshop, indesign, and Illustrator, who is about as big as they get ever size wise.

    I'm not rendering or doing anything too crazy, especially to throw about 100 MB + files with all of these 3 applications open with multiple layers, possibly Office apps too in the word of the background, powerpoint etc.

    I have heard conflicting views on that and I hope to come to some kind of conclusion.  This question was asked before in the past, but without a final resolution.  Whenever I saw a mod Adobe join the conversation its usually a copy and pasted minimum spec link or something like that.  Not a clear jump off of the fence, comment "I would recommend this configuration, it is best for your workflow.

    I realize more ram would be nice... biggest SSD etc... but its more the actual base machine I am interested by picking, assistance are additional cores worth? bells and whistles can be added later and I have a good idea that has chosen here.

    Future proofing would be the reason to get the kernel 6. It won't be a big difference now with these specific applications. If you add multimedia video/motion against still only down the road then you would like the 6 core.

  • Mac Pro and Ram ECC, basic questions

    Hi all

    one of the reasons why I bought a mac pro opportunity was the ecc ram.

    When the motherboard firmware and os work perfectly together, ram ecc can not only detect the ram errors, they can be corrected completely transparent and invisible to the user.

    But other scenarios can be implemented too...

    -the system can cancel all user processes and stop the system immediately.

    -the system can say "(ram erreur détectée, décidez vous-même à un) continue, b) stop, c)..."

    -the system can correct the error of ram and continue, and perhaps somewhere in a "count of the errors of ram' system can be increased early warning"ram module xyz contains errors, please share.

    So my question: what will happen in a mac pro (2010/5.1, with 10.11.4) when a ram error is detected?

    Greetings from the Germany

    Chris

    If only some errors, then the user is not notified.

    However, if there are so many errors that they may not be correct which usually results in a kernel panic with many banks to report errors.

    Sometimes errors are detected during the self-test on startup and a few times it will be diagnosed led illuminated by the stick of bad memory. Also if you open System Profiler/About this Mac and go to the part of the memory, it does not say OK

  • Mac Pro 2009 4.1 works question

    I have a Mac Pro 2009 4.1.  I had a problem of power upward.  I press power and then button more nothing.  Then a click.  This same thing happens repeatedly. When I cut the power (on my surge protector) and be able to turn it back on, then the machine starts.  Constantly, the Mac does not start unless I cut the power to her and then turn it on.  I realized that maybe it's a switch of some kind or food?  Any suggestion is appreciated!  Thanks in advance!

    I had these symptoms with a Mac Pro 2010 5.1. The Apple Store has been working on it and found the battery button was well below the voltage specifications (it was the original battery). This was replaced and I asked that the power supply be replaced too just in case as he approached the end of Apple support. Works since.

    The battery is a BR2032 if a CR2032 should work in a pinch. You can check here for the 2009 workshop manual which has instructions for the replacement.

  • Mac Pro CPU and GPU upgrades

    Hello, I am looking to buy a Mac Pro 2008 and had a few questions. 1. I found I can pass of say a 2 X 2.80 GHz 2 x 3.0 GHz CPU, but I looked up a few processors (from my MacBook Air i5 2013) and one very well like i5 Core 6600 k in guides and found compared to my only MacBook, it is barely faster , but compared to the 6600 k, is pretty lame. So I would like to know if I can put a more modern, faster CPU in the Mac Pro. 2. I saw you pass GPU also through multiple models of Mac Pro, but a similar question, wondering if I can swap in a GPU more modern. I'd be by accepting a list of compatible CPU / GPU if it works.

    Thank you!

  • Memory ECC on 3.1 Mac Pro compatibility

    Hi guys, I have a feeling that I already know the answer, but I have a question of compatibility memory re: my Mac Pro 2008 of 3.1.

    Specifications are:

    CPU - 2 x 2.8 Quad

    MEM - 8 GB (4 x 2 GB) DDR2 800 MHz

    Graphics - ATI Radeon HD 5000 1024 MB

    Boot disk - 240 GB SSD.

    Today, I bought a Mac Pro (2 x Dual 2.66) 2007 with 16 GB of ram, but it's ram DDR2 at 667 MHz.
    I bought it mainly for the memory, but it is slower than my memory...

    So, I have the following questions:

    1. I guess I can't use both the 667 and 800 in a computer memory sticks?

    2 - my MP (3.1 2008) would perform better with 8GB 800 MHz or 16GB 667 MHz?

    Is there a noticeable difference in performance based on the speed of the memory?

    3. is there a recommended application to test the memory and cpu as well? I'd like also to know if my CPU is "in good health".

    It would make the evaluation tests of memory?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello, here is a link to a discussion on Macrumors mix different speed RAM on the 3.1, it's from 2013

    You have gray original install disks for the 3.1, if you have the second drive should be the HardwareTest of the Apple.

    Once in the optical Bay restart by pressing the command + D keys, I think it tells you about the disc, it should start after

    a little time and then you will be able to run the tests.

  • Upgrade Mac Pro 3.1 2016

    Hello

    y at - it a favorable upgrade I can give my Mac Pro 3.1?

    so far I've always been running OS X 10.5.8

    I had to install 10.7 on a pny cs1111 ssd that I need to fix my old system, which worked.

    I had problems with upgrade of equipment due to software that I wasn't ready to upgrade, because it worked very well (which was not supposed to change).

    I read through many threads, but could not yet conclude what options to take advantage of, for the upgrade of my Mac Pro.

    SSD are safe to use now? Fact sorting am function work.

    Another question, I upgrade, I use a yamaha 01 x, which seems to run 32-bit. Found the button hold 3 and 2 the solutions for this, which is very good for me, rather than invest in getting even an equivalent sound device.

    Logic Pro seems to be evolving all the way, I'm still working on OS X 10.7, which I am trying to use because of the TRIM function I need to run the DSS, as far as I figured out.

    I read also on the most recent raid card technology that might just make my i / o really fast, but then again I live in Germany and I can't seem to find the mini das extension cable here in stores, to actually connect it right.

    I read most of the threads upgrade, do not give conclusion, if the upgrade actually working stable for more long, which is my goal.

    I want my Mac to become more course (trying to find the best bad solution too) and more fast.

    BTW. I have especially aktually work with Adobe cs products and Logic Pro.

    I hope that it is still logical. And I'll answer any question that might help my quest, in case I forgot to mention the necessary details.

    Maybe there are threads, I missed, so please post a link if you know. Most of them were who says now. I would get a solution from 2016, if the whole thing is.

  • iMac times 5K vs Mac Pro which is best for export and rendering?

    I am looking for a new machine edition and I'm debating between the new 5K iMac or Mac Pro.  I'm looking for something that will allow me to save time on exports of compression.

    Typical editing session:

    Adobe first Pro CC mixed with some compositions after effects CC.  Export via Media encode.

    -90 minutes of film Pro Res 422

    -Simple fades chained between songs

    -Green Screen to inlay

    -Light color correction

    -Graphic non-animation on screen

    -Possibility of some sequences of 4K (no more than 5 minutes)

    -Sequences linked to the external hard drive - exports going to the same drive. (Work of thunderbolt flow - see question below)

    When I edit the rough cuts for the approval of the customer, I would be compressed in H.264 format for easier time download and playback via the cloud service (Vimeo, Dropbox or car) sharing

    Which of these machines will be most effective in rendering, export and compression?

    When I say effective, I mean, the Mac Pro will save an hour or two in the export of time me?  From what I understand, they are almost identical.  Mac Pro can accelerate a little with 12-cores, but the processor is slower on the 12-core.

    PS - someone has a suggestion of confidence on a Thunderbolt 2 hard drive to edit out of?

    Ryan

    Yes IE reading using 1 disk as media and exported to a separate drive will be faster export. Time of export of the AE exceed normally until the time of the export of first if the comps are something more basic. So if this time receiver is something your tent to relieve the cores/threads are making a difference in the RAM. The drive Bay 4 will give you redundancy and protection of data. If losing a days worth of work is not a big deal separated readers are very good. If this isn't the case, then you may want to consider the Bay 4 after all.

  • Mac Pro-connect on two private subnets

    CNA Pro... running Leopard OSX 10.5,5 with 8Gig memory on-board.

    Running VMWare Fusion 2 with update.

    Need to run across two private subnets...

    10.0.10.XX (en0) IP static set of works DNS etc. for host OSX Mac Pro applications running as FCPro/Protools etc.

    192.168.1.xx (en1) static The IP address defined for comments that XP Professional will host a few apps like Autocad and Mathcad etc must log on Win2k domain as well...

    These are statically assigned IP addresses , as they will be all the time, persistent connections.

    Added 'second virtual network' adapter... both the value "bridged mode".

    Have tried the 'bridge' mode to try to achieve connectivity direct en1 interface across XP Pro. assign a static IP "virtual adapter 2 '...

    (Checked that this scenario seems to work very well on an iMAC, I place last week... opens a session on the Win2K domain... everything works but only single NIC)

    Dave Parsons excellent scripts have tried... VMWare should give the guy a medal! hire a consultant at the same time.

    I have a little more Mac Pro to put in place...

    Question...

    How can I configure vmnet 0, 1 and 8 to work correctly with en1 in bridged mode, if it isn't the right strategy?

    So if I want to add an other "guest" for example machine Linux how could I get it to connect properly on to en0?

    My apologies if this question may seem simple. Just think VMWare should be a simple and easy task...

    Could do the same thing with routers Cisco/ACL etc., then fill the two subnets with material, but that's not the point is it!

    Any assistance received with gratitude and once more a big thank you to Dave Parsons and everyone that make VMWare a "pleasant" experience

    FWIW, I have no problem to use VM@Work Tokamak 2.0.0 to fill two different virtual networks for the 2 network cards physical on my Mac which are on different subnets and have connectivity across two subnets of in Virtual Machines.

    It sounds like you haven't read fully the 'Tokamak.pdf VM@Work' in the or the document Advanced Networking Configuration - Tokamak Networking Scripts for VMware Fusion .  The reason I say it's you haven't mentioned nowhere in this thread that you have changed the configuration the target Virtual Machine's .vmx file to support the changes you made to the virtual network using VM@Work Tokamak 2.0.0 VMware.

    In other words do you have added/changed the .vmx as well? (See 4.0 change comments VMX file in the documentation.)

    Convention:

    .gift Ethernet (n) = 'TRUE '.

    Ethernet (n) .connectionType = "custom".

    Ethernet (n) .vnet = 'VMnet (n).

    Example:

    ethernet0. Present = 'TRUE '.

    ethernet0. ConnectionType = "custom".

    ethernet0.VNET = "VMnet0.

    Ethernet1. Present = 'TRUE '.

    Ethernet1. ConnectionType = "custom".

    Ethernet1.VNET = "VMnet2.

    If you have done this then in order to resolve this problem you must validate out ifconfig from the Host and ifconfig or ipconfig/all (depending on guest operating system) out of comments and the .vmx config file target VMS to begin with. (It is recommended that you redirect the output to a file on disk and then archive and attach the requested information to a reply post vs just copy and paste in reply.)

    Also why are you fill vmnet1 and vmnet8?  Personally, I recommend to leave the default value for the Type of network for vmnet1 and vmnet8 and add additional vmnet for additional bridged network.

Maybe you are looking for
