Mac Pro:: Which Graphics Card For 1,1 Is Best Jun 17, 2009 I have two issues with my present X1900: it's not going to be OpenGL compliant come September, and more pressingly on a day to day basis, for some reason Eve Online, the game I'm rather addicted to, doesn't like me using two video cards - a stock GeForce 7300 and the Radeon. Many PC 'only' graphics cards work fine in OS X, and they are usually less expensive than the mac version. There's also more choices (gtx 660ti works for example). With a PC video card you will not get BOOTUP screens without EFI, but once you are booted, you are golden. Its because the Card is 2.5 GB ram and Mac OS turn off open gl on ram above 2 GB.There is a fix and its in the works. The Only thing i would like to have from Nvidia card is the Cuda Core, for Blackmagic Davinci Resolve. Custom Workstations, External graphics card (eGPU) for Apple MacBook, Mac mini, iMac. EGPU for Mac. EGFX USB-C GPU Dock. HERE is a video of a guy installing a PC card without a boot screen on a Mac Pro 2008. PC cards offer more choices than Mac edition cards and prices are usually lower and having better performances.

Hey all,
I got a 2*Quadcore 3.2ghz 2008 Mac Pro (for free!) recently and I've done a few upgrades to it. I gave it 12GB RAM, a SSD and a few USB 3.0 ports.
Next up is a Graphics Card. There's no compatibility list online that I can find and googling hasn't helped me a whole pile to be honest. I'm struggling to find people conclusively saying 'Yes. The Nvidia blah blah 100% works.'

I'm looking to get a fairly decent card because it'll be used for 3D modelling / visualisation.
I'm looking at an Asus Nvidia GeForce GTX 780 3GB or an MSI Geforce GTX 970. They're pretty affordable and there's a few available on a local classifieds site here so it'd be nice if they worked.

From what I'm reading Nvidia cards draw less power than ATI so I should go in that direction anyway? Is that correct?
Will these work or will I have to go for a slightly older card than these? Would you be able to recommend me some cards so I can have a google and do a bit more research? Microsoft surface pro.
Thanks
Best all in one wireless color laser printer for mac. PS. I'm aware that if I used an unflashed card I won't get a boot screen but it's ok. I'll keep the old GFX card to hand if I do need it.
Edit: I'm running El Capitan if that makes a difference :)

The concept of the menu is used to provide a standard hierarchical browsing experience. This allows you to navigate your disk with only a few moves of the mouse without clicks, double clicks, selections, etc.. This mechanism comes in really handy when you just need a random file somewhere in your disk.
Filegazer has unique feature that distinguishes it from any other tool, Finder included, lays in its preview capabilities. Forget about miniatures, thumbnails, or poor file representations. Filegazer provides a rich preview for any major file types such as images, text documents, audio and video files, web pages and more.
