So I picked up the Zotac AMP! card the other day to use with 4 displays in the Dell Poweredge T110 server that I have at work.

I'm testing this card out in my real Mac Pro. However I am unable to run the 4 displays like it advertises at nvidia's website.

The most I can get is 3 displays from the card using the 2 DVI and the outermost HDMI port, the middle HDMI port doesn't do anything other than make all my screens flash blue like it does when it is detecting a new display but it doesn't output video. 

It does detect displays A -> D in the ioreg output so that makes me think there should be a way to get all 4 displays working.

 

Is this some kind of windows only drivers trick or is there a way to get quad displays from this card in OSX?

NVCAP? Maybe? not sure.

 

I've included as much as I can think of in this post.
ioreg output, lspci output. 

(I've attached the full ioreg output saved from ioregistry explorer)

 

The Zotac Card has 2x DVI (1x DVI-D 1x DVI-A/D) and 2x HDMI (full size).

 

I've tried using the stock Apple Nvidia drivers and the Nvidia Web drivers.

Same results.

 

FWIW the HDMI audio is not detected, not concerned about getting that working too much, but it would be nice to have that too.

The issue is the dual HDMI outputs in OS X.  The standard configuration (2xDVI, DP and HDMI) is a better choice; use a DP2HDMI adapter for the 2nd HDMI. DSDT edits required for HDMI audio, see Mountain Lion HDMI Audio - OSx86 10.8 (Mountain Lion) - InsanelyMac Forum.  HDMI audio is supported on the DVI ports with DVI2HDMI adapters.

So apparently my email notificiations weren't working from this thread so I missed the updates. :( 

I believe it was with all 4 connected, I'll have to try again.

That app looks interesting...

I wanted to avoid needing to buy an extra adapter as I believed it would have needed to have been an 'active adapter' to work. But it sounds like passive would work with this series of cards.

(I have a ATI 5770 dual DVI and HDMI+DP that can only run 3 displays when using an active DP adapter, I assumed it was the same for this)

 

I have to wonder if a custom "NVCAP" would be the solution to allowing dual HDMI...

 

does this card works Out Of Box or you needed any patch to get it working ?

 

i'm planning to order this card so please give your opinion about this card.

 

Thank You.

Just plugged in the card and that was all.

Works OOB in the Mac Pro that I have, the Dell that I bought the card for is unable to make it past POST with the card due to its power usage over PCIe even though it has the PCIe power cables connected....

i don't know if it'll work with my Gigabyte Z77X UP5 TH board or not :(

The card should be just as plug n play in the Mac Pro as it is in your mobo since most gtx 6xx cards have a nice OOB features the latest seeds of OS X.

 

Last I checked though, the gtx 6xx cards could output 3 displays simutaneously but that 4th one would be an "accessory" display though I'm not sure how it functions under OS X.

The reason it doesn't work on the Dell Server is that Dell didn't follow PCIe standards. 

(This server is BIOS limited to 16GB of RAM max, in addition to PCIe limitations)

The standards show the 8x full length slot should provide at minimum 25watts of power, Dell artificially limited the board to provide minimum of 15watts and a max of 25watts.

 

It should work in any consumer grade motherboard.

before ordering it , i came across this card ::: ZOTAC GTX 650 Ti Boost 2 GB

 

so this one is fine too or should i order the AMP version only ?

 

i want to purchase this one coz its a 192bit card(future investment :D )

 

so please confirm between GTX 650 AMP or GTX 650 TI Boost

 

Thank You
