@wrexfreebuild yep 5 monitors the 5870 can have 3 monitors on the one card.
@FalangasProductions this might help you: support.apple.com/kb/ht2848
do you have both the gt 120 and the 5870 installed in the mac pro at the same time? (allowing 4 monitors?)
because i read: “Note: The radeon HD 5870 card requires Mac OS X v10.6.4 or later and it requires the use of both auxiliary power connections.”
Hi I have 2009 model of Mac Pro and I was told my Apple today that I can not upgrade my gt 120 to the HD 5870 bc it would not be compatible… Have you upgrade to lion and is everything working??
thanks for the reaction…i have to read/hear/ look better next time.you say so in your video.it was a mac pro early 2009.
it was a mac pro early 2009.
but I went crazy because nobody in the apple store knows about installing a video card.or the power cables that I have to use. unbelievable. the say to me ”we don’t sell so many mac pro’s”
and now i see in your other video you install you gtx 285 and you point out the two mini 6 pin on your motherboard. i was happy to see that because i bought gtx 570 and that don’t fit in a mac pro 2009. i had to bring him back. thanks again greetings from holland.
@puntb yes this works in a 2009 Mac pro as I was installing it into a 2009 mac pro.
dos it fit on a mac pro 4,1 early 2009 with mini 6 pin to normal 6 pin?
probably will fit the macbook air!
jk lol
i find the ati 6 series a beast
What’s with your computer background lol ; )
@34skyline yeah I know. yeah its a good card does better than the GTX 285 for sure.
Can’t wait to upgrade my Video Card, The 5870 is a awesome card I got the 5870 BTO with my Mac Pro.
