[QUOTE="Avalon, post: 215346, member: 5184"] Graphics cards for Mac have a different card BIOS (or firmware, whatever it's called) than the PC versions. Therefore, you can't use a PC card in a Mac and viceversa, without reflashing it. Nvidia, unlike ATI, does not sell their Mac cards as retail cards. You can only get it as a BTO-option when buying the Mac, or try your luck on eBay. But chances are very low you'll find a Quadro FX there... [/QUOTE]
