David23 Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 nvidia gtx 2xx, you need only chameleon rc4 or highter and graphics enabler in com.apple.boot.plist (3 seconds with lizard).

David23 Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 How much can you spend? I'm in Italy and the prizes are different... nvidia 8400 gs is the cheapest, 9800 gt is good, using on osx is the same of gtx 2xx than are more expansive but them have better performances.

jblevins1991 Posted November 18, 2010 Author Share Posted November 18, 2010 what about the 8400gs does that work 100%? Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/237527-most-compatible-graphics-card/#findComment-1586562 Share on other sites More sharing options...
David23 Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 what about the 8400gs does that work 100%? Yes, you can use efistudio to make it works, the application make all, you must only insert your password.. but the 220gt is very very faster...

David23 Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 so it works dual display the whole 9 yards? it depends of the model, you need a dual dvi (NOT ASUS brand) Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/237527-most-compatible-graphics-card/#findComment-1586613 Share on other sites More sharing options...

dothacker Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 i need a gfx card that has qe/open gl/cl and 64-bit capable. i would like nvidia over ati becasue drivers are easier to get working. i dont want ot spend a lot of money on this i dont do anything graphics intensive. please post link to video card on newegg or similar site and link to tutorial on how to get it working if needed. see on your first post, you didnt' mention you want below $100 and that you want dual monitor support. Go ahead and find a video card with dual DVI that's bellow your price range. Get back with me when you do coz i'm looking for a cheap replacement for my 9800GTX+ Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/237527-most-compatible-graphics-card/#findComment-1586624 Share on other sites More sharing options...
