Anyone using the Ati Graphics Card 5770 with a Mac Pro 2.93Ghz (2009)
I would like to upgrade my stock Geforce Gt 120 cards in my Mac Pro 2.93Ghz 8 core (early 2009) to the Ati 5770 card which will be connected to 2 Apple 27inch Retina Displays.
I am aware that Apple states that the 5770 card is not compatible with the 2009 model but I have also read that Barefeats say this is not true and will work on the 2009 machines.
Having read numerous reports from people having problems when using the 5770 in there 2009 models such a faster fan speeds and excessive noise I really don't know what to do?....
Can anyone chime in with their experience and recommendations on the 5770 and also what Mac Pro model and OS version was used?.
I have looked at the Ati 5870 but it is a bit more than my current budget and my graphics power needs.
Many Thanks
Noodlez.
Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
