Hi everyone,

I was trying to make the Titan Z works in my mac, and apparently it worked.
The mac started fine, but when I started the render the mac just turn off.

I think must be my psu that dont have enough power.

Is there someone using titan z with Mac pro 5.1 Mid 2012 ?

some tips ?

I saw this video, so I thought that would work.



and this pictures.
I would greatly appreciate it if anyone had some tips

Thanks thanks!


Mac pro 5.1 12 core 2.4ghz 64gb ram 2 quadro k5200 / OS 10.10.5

The picture shows two gpu's, but also a PSU on top of the computer,not being the standard psu.
So, what psu do you have and what other gpu besides the Titan Z do you have?
(I can Google to find out what the standard psu of a mac pro is, but you should find it in your specs)
Can you show a picture of your config?
Greetz,

hey, how do you connect the GPU to the macpro's psu?
there are only two 6-pin output from it and as i think the titan needs two 8-pin, doesn't it?

you can run a GTX970 or 980 without external psu in the macpro5,1 but unfortunately not the titan.

I use MacPo 2009 with one GTX Titan X and one GTX 680.
Both are working well.
The only thing what i did i buy a 2. Power adapter for the internal use.
Now the 680 is conected to internal apple Power Supply and the Titan X to the seperate power suply.
All works great and without any issue.

Hi rappet! Thanks for help and for sharing help too.

I am using just the default psu, but I figured out that I can Put a Psu with 1000w and connect until 2 titan Z. So I bought and then my mac will be similar to that of the photo I posted.

I' am waiting my new psu that is coming from the internet.
I will let you know about )

Sorry for the delay to answer it, I had a week with a big job here.

thanks vey much Rappet!

Hi Skoeth! Yes there are only two 6-pin, but I bought all the cables to connect and make it work.
The problem was that my default psu it didnt have enough power to put it up with the Titan Z that needs 350 w just for it.

But now I bought the New psu with 1000w that will be enough for 2 Titans Z.

Thanks for helping
