Hi Y'all,
Well got me old 2006 mac pro 1.1 running El Capitan 10.11.1
I have a Flashed ATI Radeon HD 5870 1024 MB running fine.
Info is a bit thin on the ground but wondering if a GTX card* would now work, say a:
Gigabyte Nvidia Gtx 960 Gaming PCI-E Graphics Card
Presumably after installing new drivers? hmm wonder if it would fit!
I'm aware that there may be a bottleneck with the old mac, but maybe it would perform better?
Anyone done this kinda thing?
*I'm thinking i can stagger payments for a Hackintosh and make use of the bits as they come.
