Until Apple releases drivers it is unusable.
 
Are we still waiting on drivers from Apple for the other 7XXX cards? Or just the 7870. My request has to do with the 7770. Is support for cards with larger BIOS coming down the line for chimera/chameleon?

The drivers are there with the 10.8.3 being out now. You can actually get them work (check the recent articles) but it needs either an integrated graphics card or an already supported one to get through the installation process. So yeah... the only obstacle between us and a "smooth" install is the support for a lager BIOS.

Hope that happens soon.
