GPU Upgrade for Mac Pro 1,1 running Windows 10 Hi, I'm running a Mac Pro 1,1 with 14GB of RAM and an 8 core Xeon X5355. In terms of GPU I have the stock 7300GT for boot and a Quadro NVS 295. The 295 is not exactly a gaming GPU so I was hoping to upgrade the machine. Since I'm running Windows and I have the stock GPU I do not need a flashed GPU. Power was more my concern. I have been thinking of a GT 1030 or a 1650 OC as they do not need external power. Is there a way to get external power to a more powerful GPU, can I buy a new power supply? Ive seen six pins on the motherboard but I thought it was sketchy as its not directly coming from the PSU

Mac Pro 3,1 Gtx 760 I have a Mac Pro 3,1 (early 2008) and the graphics card (8800 gt) stopped working and I’ve been looking for a new one. I found a Gtx 760 on Amazon and I was wondering if this would work natively with El Capitan (OS X 10.11). Many thanks!

Honestly, this card looks used, look at the outside and all... And part of the card is all faded..

I’d go for the more popular choice,
