axius Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 By "best" I mean most powerful video card with minimal "fuss" in getting to work. Again this would be for gaming. Specifically things such as WoW and assorted FPS'. Thanks.

os.k Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 I thought the 9800 GTX or the 88ooGT 1024MB would be the best option for that. !?!?!?!?!?!

realityiswhere Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 It'd probably be the ATI. They have a tendancy to work better with OpenGL than NVIDIA does, which counts for a lot, especially under OS X. NVIDIA cards are "easier" to get working, yes, but when you can get an ATI working they vastly outperform the NVIDIA cards. (again, referring specifically to OS X ) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/147905-what-is-the-current-best-gaming-video-card-for-osx86/#findComment-1048572 Share on other sites More sharing options...
