You want to do 4K video you are going to put a heavy load on your system.
There is a lot of info out there on graphics cards for MP5.1.Ģ25W is about the limit without doing any kind of mods to power supply of MP5.1.Įven a Radeon RX590 is around 235W so if u put your system under extreme stress it may shut down or you might fry your motherboard. I saw a You Tube video this morning where a guy had installed a VEGA RX VEGA 64 and was discussing Benchmarks in comparison to the RX580 and it was extremely impressive, but I didn't realise it was very power hungry so maybe I need to check the Power Supply I am currently using which is the standard supply as installed by Apple from new. I have seen the RX580 used and many people like that card, but was wondering if for a few pounds more if there was anything slightly better than the RX580. I have recently upgraded my MAC Pro 2009 from 4.1 to 5.1 by installing 2X Intel XEON 5680 3.33 Ghz processors and 64GB of 1333 RAM which work perfectly up to MAC OS Sierra, but to take advantage of 4K/60 editing I really do need to move to at least High Sierra or Mojave which will both work fine with my AVID Editing Software.īut of course I need to upgrade the Graphics Card to be "Metal" compatible.\ I hope this no one here minds, I will try to explain this so that you may understand.Hi, that is an interesting point being "Power Hungry", I am a video editor using AVID Media Composer and want to move up to full 4K/60 editing. You will select the drive you want to boot next, and when you restart/reboot, it will boot the drive you have selected and/or changed to. That generally takes 30 - 90 seconds depending on other hardware in your system.ģ) As the OS is loading, it reaches a point where it starts loading the video card (GPU) drivers, then suddenly a signal is sent to the screen, and you see the Apple LOGO and a loading Progress BarĤ) Once loading is finished, you see the login screen, or the full desktop (depending on how you have previously configured the login settings).ĥ) You navigate into the Settings Menus, and select the Icon for “Startup Disk”.Ħ) Startup Disk will show you all the boot drives in your system (see post# 10) and you can change drives from there. The OS is loading but there is no video output just yet. With a PC type METAL card like the RX580 it works something like this.ġ) You press the power button and wait for the Chime.Ģ) macOS starts to load, but you see nothing but a black screen. No one here minds, I will try to explain this so that you may understand.
