SS01 Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 I must ask, what's the point of this? GTX 680 already works OOB on OS X, at least on hackint0sh, so I assume it would also work in real mac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XLR Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 GTX 680 already works OOB on OS X With boot screen? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rampage Dev Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 With boot screen? No, but realy why do you need a boot screen? Just buy a 5770 for PC used for $60 and flash it with EFI then sell your current card and get a nice Nvidia card and use the ATI card to boot when you need a boot screen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do not need EFI at all to make a card work on a real mac. Hey, has anyone else noticed how bent the DVI port is in the picture? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlfilms Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 i do mostly video editing and light gaming, i cant decide between the 680 and 670 2gb cards, should i get the mac edition or the gigabyte with 3 fans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TH3L4UGH1NGM4N Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 if it's light gaming then the 670 could satiate those needs but on the other half of the question regarding getting the Mac edition, unless you want a more pretty looking shroud at an added premium, I'd probably setting with the Gigabyte so long as the fans aren't sounded like F16 jets tearing across the sky. My 2 cents. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 2 cents. The 3 fan version is just as loud as the reference model +- 3 Decibels from what I have read while under full load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TH3L4UGH1NGM4N Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Hope it yields some slightly better cooling for just about the same acoustics as the reference model then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
