XW6600 + GTX 760?

Hello

I have a question:

Short version:

760 GTX graphics card will work with XW6600?

Long version:

I have XW6600, 16 GB RAM, 1 x E5440, 2 x Velociraptor 300 GB, DVD, Asus EAH6850, STD 650W PSU - which works perfectly. I want to replace by a more powerful gfx card, my favorite (best bang for males) is GTX 760 from NVidia (so that the CPU can bottleneck of the machine, I intend to keep this card when I'll be possibly replace XW6600, maybe I could go SLI then).

650w is theoretically more than enough for such a card, but since we have only a 6pin to the power, we need another 6-pin (or 8-pin) from somewhere, probably with Molex adapter. Now Let's read XW6600 REPAIR:

+ 12 v - D - line used by PCIe 6pin to the and storage - maximum continuos current 12.5 A (page 8), which gives to 150W. Suppose that a margin of 25W for 2 x HDD + DVD, he left port PCIe 125W + 75W, amounts to 200W.

Theoretically, GTX760 a TDP of 170W, but all the factory manufacturer overclock their cards, + 15% more power is typical, sometimes even more. If a card can draw 195W or more - close enough to the limit. Is it safe?

Alternative: as I have only a single CPU, and I won't have to have another, perhaps I can mod the PSU? I want to tell Exchange line + 12VCPU1 (17.5 A) with + 12 v V - D: this would provide (non-existent) CPU1 with a power Max. 12.5 A (instead of A 17.5) and the PCIe and storage with a maximum of 17.5 A (instead of 12.5 A), which should give me a lot of reserve.

Do you think that it is safe (it obviously requires a weld, I'm pretty confident I can do it right)?

Short version:

Yes...

Long version:

A PCIe video card will draw a maximum of 75W PCIe slot and the rest by auxiliary power of graphics card connectors. Normally a connector 2 x 3 will provide another 75W and a connector 2 x 4 will provide another 150W. Thus, if a graphics card requires 300W, that is provided by the slot PCIe connector 2 75W 75W x 3 and 150W to connector 2 x 4... I think that 300 w is the maximum power available for graphics according to PCIe slides/specs I've seen...

Now if your graphics card manufacturer indicates the card will draw a max of 170W, then you need 75W of the PCIe slot and the remaining 95W of connector power supply a 2 x 4 or auxiliary power of TWO 2 connectors x 3...

Note that a 6 pin auxiliary power connector (2 x 3) is not supposed to provide 150W safely, only 75W max safely can be provided only by one such connector...

If your + 12V - D line can provide safe of 150W, 25W is currently used by your HARD and the ODD drive, then you should be able to wire in auxiliary power of TWO 2 x 3 connectors in this line. Of course, please make sure that you don't go adding more devices to this line since you can then override this line of power supply...

Now, if your power supply provides a 650W and the graphics card needs of 170W, then you must make sure the rest of your system in the remaining 480W power budget. In other words, the CPU (80W each), memory, hard disks (2x6W each), raid cards (25W), mobo (?) (W), ODD (6W?) and all other equipment connected to the mobo (including usb devices powered by the mobo) must not consume more than 480W... or you weird questions that occur...

So as long as you stay in the + 12 V - D power power limit in the limit of total power from the PSU, everything should be OK.

In your case, 480W seems like it enough power to the connected equipment, so add a GTX760 should be OK on a budget of power...

But I don't know if xw6600 supported by GTX760 so do not be surprised if questions pop up... As a clue, if the system does not start, suspect a smbus between motherboard questions and... possible map using nail polish on the pins of smbus graphics card may solve the problem or BIOS legacy support adjustment can solve the problem on later UEFI systems...

Oh and "caveat emptor", you should proceed with these mods... in other words, don't blame me not if FRY you your system...

Good luck..

    Hi random34,

    Did you uninstall the previous graphics driver before starting your PC with GTX card?

    This map requires an 8 pin and one 6-pin. Check your power connections.

    Try to start in safe mode. Press F8 repeatedly at start. Uninstall the incorrect drivers if applicable. Install the graphics drivers from Nvidia.

    Some recent graphics cards require the UEFI BIOS.

  • NVIDIA GTX 760 come to Office XPS range?

  • GeForce® GTX 760 30-bit color display?

    Hello! I searched a lot but couldn't find a clear answer. Is it possible to output 10-bit (10 bits per channel) of an ASUS GeForce® GTX 760 color DirectCU II?

    or do I need a Nvidia Quadro for whom?

    Thanks in advance!

    Actually Yes, Geforce cards can produce 10-bit color via HDMi and displayport. However they are supported only with applications that use DirectX for the API. Support 10-bit color Quadro via Open GL. Adobe uses Open GL, so you would need a Quadro card for 10-bit with Adobe on video cards. However, you can get a map of IO as a card Aja or Blackmagic card and get 10 bit color overview this way which is what I would say since these that a gross result of enforcement and the color space is not performed by the operating system or the video driver.

  • GPU GTX 760 not more supported?

    6/CC first version (2015.0/6.0), my Nvidia GTX 760 is supported GPU acceleration in Lightroom.

    In each updates after, GPU acceleration is unsupported.

    I changed nothing in my installation, and I have to go back to the old version.

    This situation is unacceptable, to say the least!


    Here's my config (I tried with or without Web Nvidia and Cuda drivers):

    Mac OS X 10.11.3

    Intel 3.4 GHz I5 processor

    8 GB RAM

    SSD for the primary drive

    NVIDIA GTX 760 4 GB (2 GB is the minimum to run LR)

    OS X Drivers: 10.8.14 310.42.15f01

    CUDA: 7.5.25

    How do you know you have later?

    I'm not an expert on Mac computer, or I am an expert with this particular graphics card. I read that sometimes, one must be sure that you have the latest driver, sometimes he takes back the driver to a previous version. Perhaps someone who knows more about Macs and more info on this card to shut up.

  • Quadro k4000 vs GTX 760. only one for AE

    I have 2 computers and planning to mix them together as possible. I built a PC with quadro k4000 last year because I graduated as a 3D animator, I intend to work as a facilitator and I also have another PC with GTX 760. and now, I am currently working as a video editor. So here are my questions:

    -k4000 and gtx 760 which we could do better in AE and Pr?

    -J' read some articles said: "quadro and gtx can consolidate upward in a PC. is it really possible? because some people said yes and some people said no and some people said yes but do not work together blah blah. I really want to know about it, because now I have these 2 GPU. and if YES. can you show me how do?

    There are two my PC specs:

    Processor: core i7 3820 3.66 hz

    RAM: 16 GB

    SSD 128 gb

    HARD DRIVE 3 TB

    Motherboard: Asus P9X79 PRO

    VGA: asus GTX 760

    Another is:

    Core i7 - 3930 K 3.20 GHz processor

    RAM: 32GB

    SSD: the 256 gb

    HARD drive: 3 TB x 2

    Motherboard: ASRock X 79 Extreme6

    VGA: quadro k4000

    Can someone help me build these 2 PC in only 1 PC possible?

    Yes, they will work together if you install the right driver. Use the Quadro for output and map of 760GTX like the GPU acceleration.

  • Mounting 4 k RED in CS6 files, means SLI help in reading and publishing? (GeForce GTX - 760 vcard)

    I just bought a card GeForce GTX-760 and noticed great improvements for video playback on my old card.

    I want to start edition RED 4 k files and be able to read in 4 k, currently I can get smooth playback in the resolution of 1/2, but thought if I bought a 2nd card and used SLI I'd be able to get 4 k for playback on my system... would this work?

    I have done the research for this, but could not find much on the use of SLI in first CS6...

    Short of getting a rocket RED, how could achieve smooth RED 4 k playback and editing in CS6?

    Thank you all!

    AZA

    With CS6, you are limited to a SINGLE video card.

    With CC, SLI does not help. See Page Tweakers - what video card use?

    A second video card can help marginally with CC only, , but the only thing that really helps is more cores, more cache L3 and higher clock speed memory.

    Hello

    Looks like an amazing system. I'd go with the GTX 760 4 GB. I have same system specs and recently ordered the GTX760. Almost, I went with the 660Ti, but noticed that the 760 plays better in benchmarks and not much higher in price. Of course the 760 is excessive now, but in a few months you want to that you had that extra power. I don't like having to upgrade to often. The 760 goes for about 279.00 4 GB and 2 GB 249.99. http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/GeForce-GTX-760-Review-gk104, 3542 - 17.html

    I recently bought a new graphics card, the power and the case to my p40 pavilion in.

    Move the computer to the new case went very well, I installed a new PSU to power the 760 gtx.

    Also: nothing blew up, which is nice.

    But after the installation of the card and all wrap, start the computer fails. The message appears but freezes, the access to the contents of the bios while the card is installed with internal graph is impossible.

    My question is: Y at - it no way to update the BIOS that can solve this problem?

    Thanks in advance
