cpu

So I have a G5 quad and it boots ok, then the fans start to get pretty loud (I don’t believe full speed but I would say faster than it should be, but then after a couple of minutes, it freezes up and goes to sleep (sometimes it just freezes on what ever screen your on). I checked the LCS and it...

So I recently bought the new base 2019 MBP and while I didn't buy it for games or the sort I do enjoy the occasional league of legends and such. When I tried LoL on the Mac it was super smooth with high fps but the cpu was a constant 90 degrees celsius with fans at 100%. Is this harmful to the...

OK, so this is a crazy, off the wall idea... but what if it was possible to design and implement a replacement PCB that would fit the standard CPU tray and heat sink of a classic Mac Pro 5,1? If you don't mind me summarizing 557 pages and over a million page views from the "Waiting for Mac Pro...

I have an early 2009 8 core Mac Pro 4.1 (details attached) and I'm looking to make it quicker. I've just installed 4x 4GB 1066MHZ DDR3 ECC RAM (My mac is ECC enabled) and I've left 4x 2GB ram in from before (they are all made by Kingston). I've also got the OS on an SSD. My geek bench score is...

Hello, I just upgraded my processors to dual Xeon X5690's. It seems that CPU A is running about 10 degrees hotter than CPU B. Is this normal? Sadly, I never looked at the temps before upgrading the CPUs. Thanks! BTW. My system is a 5,1

Hi, sorry for the double post, maybe some readers will only get it here Hi everyone, new to this forum. Mac pro 2009 mono cpu (stock mono 2,66) updated to 5.1, high sierra with bootrom MP51.0089.B00 BootROM CPU update fail !! Trying to install a x5675 bought on ebay After cpu change and new...

Hi, I need some guides on purchasing a MacBook Pro. I am an Aerospace engineering student, will use the laptop to do (A) assignment, (B) research or maybe some (C) 3D modelling. The 3D modelling software I used before was CATIA V5, which is available on window only. I don’t mind to use computer...

Sorry for the vague question, but what benefits can we actually see by having an iOS device with Apple's A-series chips (A11, A12, upcoming A13) which have the neural engine? I'm still on an A9 iPhone, so I don't yet have neural engines in my CPU. What am I actually missing, and from which apps?

Dear all, I'm using Intel Power Gadget to monitor my CPU temperature under load (I'm doing some 3d rendering at low resolution and quality). Intel power gadget is marking a temperature of 82 celsius for the CPU. It seems too high for me. Can you please confirm or tell me what's your...

Is there any method to get the CPU temperatures in iStat Menus? I can read the GPU and SSD temperature but not the temperatures of the CPU cores. I have downloaded the iStat Menus from the website and bought a license, so i'm running the fully functional version (instead of the limited App store...

It is not a part to be overloaded in Logic, but I saw the CPU state, when I saw the overload coming up 2 X 3.46 6Core = 12core , 24Thread But My Logic CPU Work only 7.... is it Wrong? also i Put 8GB Ram x4 ( 1,2,5,6 Slot) but 5 Slot is Dead and i tried put 2,3,6,7 Slot , 7 Slot Is Dead what...

Hi all! So I've got an old 21.5" 2011 iMac that I'm looking to upgrade. My current 2012 15" cMBP is on its way out and I don't trust it'll last for a few projects I'm recording. I'm going to upgrade the hard-drive to an SSD and max the RAM to 32GB, however I was also looking to upgrade the...

Hello, my iMac is crashing all the time and all the error reports point at CPU core #3. I would like to test disabling it. All the options I found only limit number of cores in use, but I haven't found an option to disable just a specific CPU core. Is there any way to do this? thanks!

Hi fellow users, I am looking to buy a new iMac in the next month or two. Now that Apple has refreshed the iMac lineup with 6-core CPUs, I was thinking of getting rid of my "old" base MacBook Pro 2016 (w/o TouchBar) and an external monitor and getting the new iMac instead with some money to be...

Hi there I've got an A1502 MacBook Pro 13" late 2013 (MBP 11,1; ME867LL/A) which I got secondhand. It's got the 2.8GHz i7 4558U, 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD. Thing is; it runs hot. All the time. Idle temps fluctuate between 65°C and 99°C most of the times. I changed out the thermal paste twice...

Simple question.

Hi, I'm experimenting with de-lidding a pair of (5677) processors for a Mac Pro I have. I decided to experiment with the "vice method" on an old processor I had left over from another upgrade. The de lidding with the vice went really smoothly....the top seemed to slide over a bit at first and...

Hi, I'm in the process of upgrading a Mac Pro 2009 (already flashed to 5,1) with 2 x 2.26 Quad core Xenon processors. I'm upgrading to the X5677 processors (which I know have to be de-lidded or spaced with washers etc.)...BUT I've read that I need a "Dual Xenon" processor...... so my question...

I can confirm the 8 core Xeon E5-2667 V2 (not provided by Apple) is the best CPU for Mac Pro 6.1. - Both single-core and multi-core performance is better than in the 12 cores CPU provided by Apple: 4135/27254 vs 3369/27076. - compared to the new iMac Pro with 8 cores, single-core and...
