Early 2008 mac pro upgrade video card upgrade#
I am not clear if any and all 660ti are going to work or worth it though. I have an Early 2008 Mac Pro (received 08/08/08) as well, and I thought the 200 upgrade to the Nvidia GeForce 8800 GT unnecessary at that time.

You had to make sure you bought a card with 2 x 6-pin connectors. I have same MacBook Pro as adi and mine hangs upon final boot screen with the apple logo.
IF the Mac Pro would just have 1 x 8-pin in addition to the two 6-pin aux power cables would make it a lot easier. I have never liked having to find and release the card clasp or lock and swap out a card unless absolutely necessary. Do I get two DVI ports? in the past, not always.ĭo I have or want to keep a card on hand for when I do need to say use Recovery Mode to do troubleshooting or repairs? Or if you have to download and install 10.8?
