ZackMacAttack Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 (edited) Hey Guys! I am looking to build a brand new system this summer and I am looking to start buying parts soon as to not put too big of a hole in my pocket all at once! Hehe. I have sold all of my previous systems (6 or 7 of them) that had OS X and I am stuck on a cheap laptop with Windows 7 (Yuck) and desperately need a system for work at home. I do 3D Modeling in Cinema 4D, Editing in Premiere Pro and graphics in After Effects and use a 12 Core Mac Pro at work but need a system at home. You can see the Specs for the system in my Signature. The Biggest Problem I am having is choosing a Graphics Card. I have looked at about 50 of them and always changed my mind. I am now looking at the EVGA 02G-P3-1387-KR GeForce GTX 460. This thing is a beast, it has 2GB of Vram and CUDA support for the Mercury Playback Engine in Premiere. The only problem that I foresee with the card is that it has TWO nvidia GTX 460 GPUs on the one chip. "Equipped with 672 (336 x 2) CUDA cores clocked at 700MHz""Features: 2 GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) GPUs" Has anyone had any luck, or do they know if these dual GPU cards work with OS X? Thanks Guys!

Gringo Vermelho Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 This might be helpful http://www.insanelym...howtopic=263780 Also search for information about the 9800 GX2 and the GTX 295, both are dual GPU cards. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
