2012 mac pro

For months, I've had a perfectly working system using current OCLP, Ventura and Catalina. The other day, I started up as normal in Ventura and it locked at the Apple Logo. I reset the NVRam from the OC boot picker. It still wouldn't boot Ventura. It also wouldn't even see the external USB I...

I have a 5,1 that was having issues that i still haven’t been able to figure out. I decided to buy a replacement backplane since all of my other components were tested and deemed fine. I installed the backplane last night and now the tower will power on but doesn’t chime or boot. I have tried...

Hey guys. I'm very new to this, so please bare with me. I own a 2012 Mac Pro and as I was doing some work on Adobe Auditions, the computer started acting up. I restarted it, and upon booting it just turned off. I've tried rebooting in recovery mode - no luck. I took out all storage and backup...

I've got a 2012 Mac Pro with an NVIDIA GTX 780 3GB graphics card, so Metal 2 is supported (on the graphics card end). Trial copy of Pixelmator Pro works just fine. However, I cannot purchase a license from the App Store because the computer hardware is not on the supported list. Any...

Hey, guys! So I currently own a MacBook Pro 15" from late 2011 (w/ the optical drive). It's got a 2.2 GHZ Intel Core i7 with 8GB of memory and an Intel HD Graphics card. I've also got a 1TB SATA Disk. I'm wanting to switch to a lighter laptop, but still want to save my money. So I was...

I've got a 2012 Mac Pro, 3.2 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon with 12 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 RAM. Will adding more RAM get me increased speed? Currently I have 2 2 GB modules and 2 4 GB modules. I was thinking of swapping the 2 GB modules out for 8 GB ones to give me a total of 24 GB. When I check out the...

Hi, I damaged my mac book pro (mid 2012) with wine. I have not noticed that wine was damaging it, so the mac turn off itself and never turn on again. I did some photo that shows the LDVS connector and one IC (INA213) damaged from the liquid. Battery and others parts seems ok. I am able to...

Yes, I read the Nvidia FAQ thread, so please don't flame me... Can't seem to find a definitive answer whether the NVS 510 (Kepler) will work in a Mac Pro 5,1 - or alternately the Quadro K1200 or the M2000 (Maxwell). System: Stock Mac Pro 5,1 on latest El Capitan My needs are: A low...

Hi, The Radeon 5870 that came in my Mid 2012 Mac Pro is becoming outdated. I'm wondering if it's possible to upgrade the GPU to a Sapphire Radeon NITRO R9 380X. I'm mostly using the Mac Pro to play games in Windows 10 through Bootcamp, so if sacrificing macOS compatibility is necessary to...
