Intel Mac :: 27" Quad Core I7 And A Sony VPL-CX5 Video Projector - Get Them To Work Together?

Jul 2, 2012

I've got a 27" iMac quad-core i7 running Lion and a Sony VPL-CX5 video projector.  The projector is no longer support by Sony and Lion doesn't have an included driver to make it recognize the projector as a display device.  I'm trying to find some sort of adaptor that the iMac will recognize as a display that will send a video or s-video (or even vga) signal to the projector.   

Info:
iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.4)

Intel Mac :: Gray Screen At Startup 27" 2.7GHz Quad-Core Intel Core I5

Apr 5, 2012

My one week old iMac 2.7GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i5. first started problems by not goping to sleep even when I forced it.

I shut it down using the shut off button and unplugging it from power for more than 5 munites.

I turned it back on, it does the usual startup chime and then gray screen. I have restarted twice from the shot off button and still getting the same result.

MacBook Pro :: Can Replace 13" Early 2011 Dual Core 2.3GHz Intel I5 With The Coming Ivy Bridge Quad Core

May 29, 2012

The ivy bridge processors are coming out soon (or may already be out). I have heard that macbook pro 13" models might be able to use the new processers due to their lower energy useage. I presume that I will be able to take my mac to an apple store and have it installed. Is this information true?

IMac :: Which One Is Better/an 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Or An 2.8 GHz Intel Quad Core?

Dec 18, 2009

first, I didn�t know if this thread should be here or in Buying Tips, but anyway. My doubt is about the brand new 27� iMac�s processor, If I should buy a more GHz one, but with only two cores, or should I buy little bit less GHz one, but with four cores.

It really worth pay $200 more? It really worth the four cores? My main needs are run CS4, some Final Cut, maybe Logic Studio, and switch between different OS's (OS X, Windows, and Linux). I think even a 21.5� model would be more than enough, but I just wonder If Quad Core gonna give me more power (I hope so).

PowerPC :: How Quad G5 Slow Than Intel Core 2 Duo

Jun 26, 2009

I have always been interested in getting a G5, ever since they came out. I might be able to nag a Quad G5 for very cheap, but I have a question. I know that an Intel Core 2 Duo is faster than a G5, but how is it faster than the Quad? What exactly makes the Intel faster than the G5? I am looking at the Apple specs of the Quad and to me, it looks like a really solid computer, especially for 2005.

2 Dual Core 2.5GHz PowerPC Processors
1MB Cache Per Core (4MB Total)
FSB 1.25GHz Per Proc
Up to 16GB DDR2 PC2-4200

So, what makes the G5 Quad, or even Dual Core/Dual Proc G5's so weak?

I have just switched to a 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon Mac Pro and I have a Minolta slide scanner that is connected to the Mac by FireWire 400. Now this Mac no longer has a  FireWire 400 connection, only FW 800. Is there a way to still use the scanner, some adapter maybe?

Mac Pro :: 2 X 2.8 GHz Quad Core Intel Xeon Memory Upgrade?

Oct 7, 2008

I would like to upgrade the memory on my mac pro to 8gb (4 x 2gb) plus the original 2gb (2 x 1gb) that comes standard for a total of 10gb. I have looked on [URL] and the prices range from $198.99 to $799.99 for 8gb (4 x 2gb) kits. The Omni Technologies Optival is mighty tempting at $198.99 and I see that OWC has 8gb for $269. What do you recommend? Is Optival any good? The reason I an adding 8gb is for multi-tasking video/audio etc.

IMac :: Is The Quad Core I7 Faster Than The 2008 Octo-Core Mac Pro?

Oct 22, 2009

So the older Mac Pro's from 2008 have 2 2.8ghz Quad Core Intel Xeon processors, without hyperthreading, for a total of 8 cores, and the top of the line iMac has a Quar Core i7 2,8ghz with hyperthreading for a total of 8 (virtual) cores.

With the ghz being the same but less "real" cores, but probably newer CPU architecture, which CPU will actually be faster?

MacBook Pro :: Quad Core Versus Dual Core?

Jan 8, 2011

Just in case Apple surprise us with a Sandybridge Quad core, and even if they don't I was wondering the following.

1 ) During sustained use in 3D gaming does a Quadcore with lower clock speeds beat a dual core with higher clock speeds.

2) Can the quoted turbo speeds be achieved in sustained use (ie 3D gaming where maximal load can be applied for a couple of hours).

i7-2630QM
Base Frequency 2.0GHz
Max SC Turbo 2.9GHz
Max DC Turbo 2.8GHz
Max QC Turbo 2.6GHz

i7-2620M

Max SC Turbo 3.4GHz
Max DC Turbo 3.2GHz

IMac :: Quad Core I5 OR Base Model Core I3?

Jul 28, 2010

I know other threads exist, but they don't have responses specific to me so what's the harm in one more?

So, I am going to be selling my late 2008 15" MacBook Pro this week to get a new 27" iMac and I just need some legitimate advice from those "in the know" on processors.

I plan on having this iMac for about 3 years to do the following tasks:

1.) Record and edit HD cable (1080i) from an Elgato EyeTV HD - will include some encoding of 2+ hour sports game recordings

2.) Some light editing of 720p iPhone 4 clips in iMovie

3.) Surf the web, iTunes, iPhoto, Mail, and all the other standard stuff

Assuming budget is an issue, would you recommend me spending the extra money for a Quad Core i5 iMac or would I be ok based on the info above just going with the base Dual Core i3 model?

Like, will there be a considerable difference in the two machines (factoring in processor and graphics card) that will really be worth the extra $300 - $400 for 3 years of use?

Mac Pro :: 3.2GHz Quad Core Versus 3.33GHz 6 Core?

Aug 10, 2010

I'm one of the many many people who are juggling mac pro options in my head.

is the 3.33GHz Westmere worth the extra 640? Probably not, but now much faster will be it? 20%....30%?

I think I'm set on either of these two options, mainly using FCP and photoshop and a bit of motion. maybe a bit of gaming

Also I can max out them four RAM slots and get a 5870 with the extra cash.

Hardware :: Quad Core I5 2.66 Versus Core I3 3.06?

Oct 7, 2010

As I see the new Speedmark 6.5 test scores come out, I''m taken back somewhat.

I'm buying an iMac for my office which is used for internet, email, heavy excel and word. I like to get 4 to 5 years out of my computer so I'm switching to an iMac. That being said I'm buying a refurbished unit, but am wondering if it's worth the extra 4-500 bucks to upgrade from the 3.06 Core i3 to the 2.66 Quad-core i5??

Mac Pro :: Quad Core Vs. 8 Core For Compressor Speed?

Feb 2, 2010

I have a Macbook Pro Core Duo that I use Compressor and it literally takes forever to compress FCP files. I know an upgrade to a Mac Pro would make the compression go faster and I know the 8 Core would make it go extremely fast, but can I do just as good with a Quad Core 2.66ghz. Would that cut my compression time down? An 8 core is a little out of my price range, but i'm pulling toward a Quad Core.

Mac Pro :: Quad Core Versus Dual 6 Core?

Jun 8, 2010

So I was talking to my friend about the new MPs and that they should have two 6 core processors in it.

I plan on getting one for rendering scenes with Maya and doing stuff on AE, FCP, and the CS5 master collection. We were talking about his computer, which is one quad core processor.

He was saying that render times on Maya wouldn't be very different when comparing a quad core versus two hexa cores. I don't agree with him but would like someone elses opinion on this.

MacBook Pro :: Sony Data Projector Doesn't Display Desktop?

I love my MacBook Pro -it's used all the time in schools, without hassle.

However, when I try to connect to a Sony VPL ES1 data projector, the screen resizes (normal and OK) but the data projector shows a completely different desktop image and I can't see a cursor.

Presume this is a bug, but is there a work-around I'm missing?

Mac Pro :: Upgrade Base Dual 2.4GHz Quad Core To Dual 2.93GHz Hex Core

Oct 3, 2010

I'm just going to order a new Mac Pro and noticed that it was slightly cheaper to order the base dual processor model and buy the 2.93GHz hex cores myself. A couple of questions arise:

Will my AppleCare still be valid or will I have to keep the 2.4GHz Xeons if I need to return it to Apple for any reason?

Is there market for the 2.4GHz processors?

Can I upgrade to the 3.33GHz processors or will this not work?
