Hi all,
I'm hoping to upgrade the GPU on a Mac Pro Early 2009 at work. It struggles to keep up when users work on Adobe After Effects CC.
I'm on a tight budget (this is for a non-profit) and would like to spend as little as possible but get the current NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 512MB up to a 1Gb GPU.
Having never done this before, I'm not sure which models of GPUs are compatible with the machine. Is a used ATI Radeon HD 5770 1Gb okay? Or should I be going for an aftermarket card?
My knowledge all comes from here: http://www.everymac.com/systems/app...ics-cards-dvi-dual-link-mini-displayport.html
Suggestions? Advice? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
