[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1750037, member: 56379"] If you purchased these Mac Pro's in 2009...I'm surprised you're still using the GT120. The GT120 was kind of a "slow-poke" video card in 2009.;) You can...but sometimes they don't work 100% as well as a official Mac/Apple video card. Sometimes there are small anomalies. Some other members will hopefully jump in with the Windows video cards they use. There are soooo many Windows video cards out there. I would stick with Windows video cards that other Mac users have used with success. Yes they are....and it has almost always been this way. Way back to the 1980's.;) - Nick [/QUOTE]
