Power consumption is good for these cards. The driver support is now coming out for 5700/5700XT and Radeon 5800+ cards will come to market later in 2020 I think. Maybe someone else can chip in here on this thread but long term investment wise you maybe better off with those dual xeons to upgrade to Catalina and go Radeon 5000X series. 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.\ There'll be plenty of reasons to install El Capitan on older Macs even if you don't get the benefit of Metal support: Features like Split View, an improved Spotlight, improved Safari, Mail and Notes, easier to use Mission Control and much more.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. It's worth noting that Apple has not posted system requirements for El Capitan on its web site yet, though right now the developer beta runs on all Macs that were compatible with OS X Yosemite when it came out last year - that includes Macs that were manufactured in 2008. Intel's integrated graphics hardware is used extensively throughout the Mac product line, while discrete Nvidia and AMD graphics processors are used on some systems like some 15-inch MacBook Pros, higher-end iMacs and the Mac Pro. That includes graphics hardware made by Intel, Nvidia and AMD.
