When the new Power Macs (Mac Pro) come out will you be able to use any GPU that intel supports, or will you have to buy apple GPU’s?

Also, what about having more then one GPU in a Mac Pro?

its too early to speculate without any hard facts about the intel powermacs. also the powermac quads hav just come out recently so i think apple will leave it a few months before announcing anything about the intel powermac.

Well the new iMacs were not out that long before the iMacs core duos came out.

Doubtful...still not the same operating system and driver system so you will still need to use Mac hardware
