westwaerts Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 my asus 8600 gts works with nvinject 0.2.1, displays 512mb after editing the plist, dual monitor didnt try, but a second monitor is displayed in the sys profiler. i got 1920 x 1200 pixel, the display is regognized with model name, randomly i have a graphic channel error. that causes a system crash, but most of the day its working, like me isthisthatyouwannaknow?

nate256 Posted January 17, 2008 Author Share Posted January 17, 2008 it is kinda what i wanna know, but 8600 are a little strange when it comes to crashes. is it true that the 8800 are more stable? basically will the one i linked too work stable in OS X like with CS3 And FCS??? people said the 8600 crashed when they open studios like with motion. what is the best card??

~pcwiz Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Best possible card that you can use with OS X right now is the GeForce 8800GT/8800 Ultra I believe, and it works fine with the kexts from the 10.5.2 update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nate256 Posted January 18, 2008 Author Share Posted January 18, 2008 but will this card have be as stable as the 8800 GT? http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/Se...&CatId=1826 it is GTS so is that card working good in Leapord? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~pcwiz Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 Yeah, the GTS works great in Leopard with NVinject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nate256 Posted January 18, 2008 Author Share Posted January 18, 2008 after looking around im going to go with the 8800 GT because it is cheaper and does what i need it to do!!!! so basically any 8800 series card will work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~pcwiz Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 Yup, but you to get the cards to work you have to install the framework and NVIDIA kexts from the 10.5.2 update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
