Metal-GPU for Mac Pro 3,1 (2008)

I'ld like to replace my original graphic card HD2600XT!
Any recommended Metal-GPU that perfectly work on my Mac Pro 3,1 (2008) ?
Appreciate in advance 😊
Mac Pro
Alright n😊👍🏻
Question marked as
It would make basically no difference except Metal.
A like I said, go with the GTX680.
Even though it’s around $150-300 USD, It’s a great buy.
Any of us users online would be able to help you (support wise) with that card because many people use that card for the 3,1.

I see! Haha!
That's right, compatible card with flash ready always most welcomed!
$60 means Flashed unit? Then, it's quite cheap!
Non flashed. From a PC.
The drivers are built in the OS, just stick the card in and off I went.
Hi Guys! I found a Flashed-Dell GT640 for around USD 83. What do you think?
Not heard of that one being offered for use in MacPros before, i'd be a bit wary.
Can you post a link to the page you saw it.
Hmm... That's right! But I think it just look like Asus Version ? I don't have the link but picture, Yes! Here you go...
Ok well as long as you can return it no questions asked if you don't find it suits your needs.
And does this person offer a guarantee.
I doubt you will notice any performance change, what do you do with your mac.
I have no idea if the GT 640 was a popular choice of card fro the MP 3.1.
Haha. Ok!
So, the price Ok? If yes,then I probably will give it a shot!
Haha.,ya !
Please do suggest Better Choice!
Thanks
Hahaha 😂
We keep the Legendary Machines running, why they wanna ban us? We have to find a way out since they stop support, wasn't it? Still, those machines weren't cheap, how can we just simply set aside and throw another dollars for new one? Unless the old one is dead!
Btw, thanks for your suggestion, I'm really appreciate!🙏
Hmm...seems GTX 680 quite popular for Old Mac Pro! But I'm curious whether there is Mac Version in the market? Or, FLASH is a must?
So my post doesn’t get banned again,
Im only gonna say that the NVIDIA GTX 680 is your best bet!
Regards,
Christian
I got a GTX 680 for my MP 3.1, Mac Edition.
