Help! EVGA GTX 680 Classified

[KaosuSoruja]

Just wondering if someone can answer my question. My question is if the EVGA GTX 680 Classified is compatible with Mountain Lion 10.8.2 (Note. I have Mountain Lion running on HD4000GFX), I've read 4GB cards aren't supported. I am running 3 Displays at 1080p, so the extra ram on the card is needed for surround gaming in Win 7. I'm still new to the hackintosh world, if there is another way I can go about doing this (i.e. different graphics card, dual graphics?) let me know!

Just for reference I have: Intel Core i3770k

Gigabyte X77-UD5H F14

8Gb Patriot Intel Extreme Edition Ram @ 1866Mhz

Seasonic 760watt PSU

OCZ Agility 240Gb SSD

Thanks in advance!

Probably. But unless you plan to overclock the card it is a waste of money and I am not even sure the EVBot would work in 10.8.x to be able to over-volt the card.

Thanks for the response, so would you suggest buying different card(s)? I'd like to overclock the card in Win 7 but I can go with out. Any example of cards the would suffice for my build?

I would go with just the 680 or the 680SC. The only difference is the Core clock speed and the price, and, IMHO, you would never know the difference.
I don't think the FTW+ is worth the extra $ even if it does have 4Gb of RAM. For most use anything over 2 Gb is wasted anyway.

Here is a review that will help put it into perspective: http://www.anandtech.com/show/6096/evga-geforce-gtx-680-classified-review
