->> Just a question for those of you who have upgraded the Video Card in your Mac Pro. Do you find the fan on the X1900XT to be excessively loud?
I have read that some people have replaced this fan with something called the Accelero X2. Did anybody here try this? I'd love to hear your thoughts about doing this before I pursue it myself.
I have to say, I am very impressed with my speed increases so far. It would take up to a minute for a folder of 1200+ images to open up in Photo Mechanic on my iMac G5. It takes less than 5 seconds with my MacPro. And, when batch processing in Photoshop, actions that would take 30-40 seconds in CS on the iMac G5 take about 10-15 seconds on the MacPro. (And, I only have 1GB of RAM so far!) |
