graphics card upgrade Mac Pro 1.1 late 2007
Hello,
I want to upgrade the graphics card in my quad core Xeon/2.66, 1.1, from the original GeForce 7300 GT 256mb (for use with PS CS6 and iMovie 11 etc). I have two possibilities: the Nvidia 8800 GT 512MB or the ATI Radeon HD 5770 1GB.
I understand that my machine can't utililise more than 512mb graphics card VRAM, so is there any point my considering the 1Gb HD 5770? - Would the 5770 give any noticeable improvement in performance over the 8800 GT, given the limitations of my Mac Pro?
Thanks for any help...BC
