Hi folks
I need some advice on an appropriate graphics card for my brother's Mac Pro 3.1 (2008 vintage I think, it has the Quad Core 2.8GHz Xeon and 320GB drives). It is the server for his vet clinic so it basically just sits in the corner (getting dusty :-( ) and chugs away. It only ever has a screen attached to it when I need to go in and check something out, maybe ten times a year. So basically a pretty basic, bullet-proof graphics card that can handle getting dusty. It currently has an ATI Radeon HD 2600, well it did have. It is revving like a jet engine and causing lots of kernel panics at the moment so it has to go.
Any help will be much appreciated.
