  • Mac Pro early 2009-7950 HIS Itceq Turbo / 3GB

    Hello

    I bought a GPU 7950 HIS Itceq Turbo / 3GB GDDR5. I tried with the Mac Pro early 2009 (10.9.5) and a 4K monitor, but it does not work perfectly.

    The DVI output is good, but the max resolution only 1080 p. If I use with cable MiniDisplay, and view the right side monitor scratches and horizontal 5 seconds noise appears on 60 Hz. The monitor works fine on 30 Hz. I tried SwitchResx app for the best refresh rate, best rate exceeded the 55 Hz, but the horizonte noise not.

    The other problem, the boot music played twice each time, so pluged the DVI. If the MiniDisplay cable was plugged music start playing around and he played with white screen. The only way to start if you connect the cable

    The seller never try it with a 4K monitor, so I do not know is the card works well.

    The 4 K is Acer BX320HK. It works very well with the MacBook Pro late 2013 (10.10.5) with Nvidia GeForce GT 750 M 2048 MB same MiniDisplay-Display cable.

    Is there someone who uses this card with MacPro and 4 k monitor?

    Thank you!

    The specifications of the card say:

    2560 x 1600 per display (DVI Dual-link)

    You use a dual-link cable?

    I can't find the manual so I don't know what input DVI resolution lets you get.

    I think the best would be a new installation of El Capitan on the new HD and reinstall the applications on the new HD, and then migrate the data and setting for the previous version of OSX. In this way the least unused stuff enters the new OSX version

  • Ask for help upgrade (Mac Pro early 2009 2x2.6 GHz Quad-Core)

    I am a videographer who has need to bring my Mac Pro from the dead. Cheesy with video files, but not parts of. My reading so far led me to look at in what follows. I'm looking for a better understanding of each of the following items and upgrades are beneficial and worth that may be too kill for a round of aging.

    1. Memory. I currently have 4x2gb or total of 8 GB of ram. I know this is ridiculous, I have not increased by at least 16 GB so far. However, I have read that memory can only help so much and that some of the items here are actual speed thrusters. How much memory is recommended for this configuration? Should I buy? http://www.Amazon.com/16GB-DDR3-1066-PC3-8500-1066Mhz-Apple/DP/B0098MLFJG/
    2. Solid State Drives. I currently have 3 disks internal thatrange of 500 GB to 2 TB. If I used that as my boot drive, where is the best place to install (see photo below)? I read of people installing in a Bay SATA HDD or SATA optical drive unused. I read good things about it. http://www.Amazon.com/Samsung-2-5-I...p/B00OBRE5UE/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top?IE=U TF8
    3. Video/graphics card. First of all, both mean the same thing? Are the belowonly of slots PCI Express 4 for this type of card? Also, can you have two installed? I have the NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 512 MB series. What is the best way to upgrade? My research so far has led me to the GeForce GTX680. Looks like I'll have to buy it was good. T7ZS http://www.Amazon.com/EVGA-GeForce-DisplayPort-Graphics-02G-P4-3682-KR/DP/B00C81
    4. Processor upgrade. I'm intimidated by it due to intensive installation and prices. What would be the next best bet - upgrade to 12-core? Where to buy?
    5. Firmware? I've seen videos and forums on (4.1 - I) (5.1) or (6.1). I don't really understand what that means. Should I be concerned?

    Thank you!

    -The fastest drive is a blade of base PCle SSD. Very very fast

    The SSD to 'Classic' Mac Pro training

    -The bus SATA on the Mac Pro is only SATA II (3 GB/s) and connected to the bus SAT SSD is therefore limited to speed SATA II, not the speed of current SATA III (6 Gbps) drives.

    -You can get cards PCle who accept the standard SATA SSD and who can get speeds of SATA III

    -You can install several graphics cards. I have my 2009 MP, I have the original GT120 in slot 2 and a 5770 PC card into slot 1 (slot width double only).

    A graphics for PC cards will not display anything while booting, as well as an installed PC card can be used for the Startup Option or special start-up as recovery mode.

    -J' would upgrade not processors. Frequently reading and writing to disk is the bottleneck.

    About the firmware, you can update the firmware of the 2009 to 2010 MP. Which allows the use of faster memory, using a processor six cores and audio mini displayport for the graphics card offline

    The ability to display resolution is also affected by the type and quality of connection mac and monitor cable (interfaces).

    For example, single-link DVI connection supports only up to 1920 x 1200.

    What cable do you use?

    I can't find any more recent discussions in responses since 2013 so thought Id ask again. These answers described an "ATI Radeon HD 5870 Graphics Upgrade Kit for Mac Pro (mid-2010 or early 2009)" which I think is no longer available.
