I have the x1 version of this card in my Unraid rig. It works well for workflow in VMs and as a "blind head" with a plug for a networked VM retro gaming rig. If you need a basic gpu in a simple build I highly recommend it. Added bonus? The tdp is 25W and it idles around 3-5W.

It will absolutely fit, but you're going to have fun connecting the display. Also keep in mind that display is probably 1024x768, so unless you want to mod in a new panel you're going to be running next gen hardware on a decades old screen (the M1 can push up to 6k). You may be able to find a...

I like Carbon Copy Cloner. It's effective, relatively quick, does a good job with block-by-block, and is free (though you should donate a little if you can, it's a great app).

Ok, so I haven't noticed any problems with this yet (including with CS5 apps), but ever since the 10.6.5 update I'm getting the CUDA update message. Problem is when I go to update, it tells me I have the most current driver. Is Nvidia just late with the new version? Also had to reinstall the...

Did you get the bt211 working? I have one and I can't seem to get the compy to identify it...

Even weirder--since installing the DSDT, the audio has been tinny. Still works and all but it sounds like...well, tinny. I don't know how else to put it. At this point I'm going to assume that the mobo is bad and is the root of most, if not all, of these problems.

It's gone way past that at this point; CMOS couldn't find two of the four RAM slots (definitely the slots, tried moving the sticks around and it kept only seeing slots 1 and 2). Tried going back to F10 and then F9 (which was the BIOS version I was using before the random reboots) and still...

Done and keeping an eye on it. It's happened one other time thus far; contacted Gigabyte and they suggested going back to bios F10, if it happens again I may do that. Also, and this is even odder, recently I've been getting strange memory errors; system profiler is reporting all 16gb (4X4)...

Nudge because it happened again a few days ago; the system just went black and then the computer rebooted and froze on the post screen. A forced reboot and everything was fine again. I'm leaning towards it being a problem with the mobo, but (aside from running memtest) is there any way to be sure?

Hi all--so I've had my hack running fine and dandy for months with no problems. This morning I came into work, booted up, and within 5 minutes the system froze. Rebooted, and this time lasted about 10-15 minutes before the computer rebooted itself. Have currently been up for about 30 minutes...

Hey Riptex, you saved my ass if that helps. Just posted a similar problem after searching around for a while and, on a whim, searched just for the error string and found this thread. I have 5 SSDs in my case (4 secondary and 1 primary). Not sure which is/was causing the problem, but I...

Well, in that case I can confirm that version F8 works with multi-beast, can't make a claim either way on F9, so try reflashing

Hmm, probably not worth it, I don't think it's ever advisable to flash backwards (except when it is, if you know what I mean, and I'm sure you do). But yeah, wonder if anyone else is having problems with F9. Maybe I'll go ahead and update the FW this weekend to see what happens...

F8. I just noticed F9 is out, and while I want the improved Turbo Boost benefit, I think I'll hold off until you get yours working before I update. ;) And yes, everything is working on mine; ethernet @ gigabit speeds, audio, video, even hardware RAID through the Marvell ports (though...

Re: MultiBeast 2.1.1 Appreciate the reply, but that's just a guide to installing multibeast (albeit a very thorough one, nice work on that). My problem is the multibeast installer itself is hanging, not a problem with an OSX install... EDIT: nevermind, it was a software conflict; on reboot...
