Currently using Mac Pro (mid 2012) and looking to upgrade graphics card for 3D Ray-Tracing in AE CC. Any suggestions?

Assuming AE means Adobe After Effects then Adobe programs like After Effects generally work better with Nvidia graphics cards. The current 'best' Nvidia card for the Mac is the GTX 980. While a standard PC version can be used you may find that getting a version 'flashed' with Mac firmware would be a better option in the long term. Unfortunately it is currently not possible to flash this model of card ones self so if you want that option you need to get it done for you by MacVidCards.
